# scorm-mcp-server
> Turn self-contained HTML, **a Claude Design `.dc` bundle** or **a mobile-learning platform content export** (Excel activity templates + media) into a **SCORM 2004 (or 1.2)** package ready to import into any LMS β assets inlined for **100% offline**, completion / progress / **score** tracking injected, ADL schemas bundled.

*The bundled local harness (`scorm-test-harness.html`) playing a package: progress 0 β 100%, completion, and the live LMS API-call log (0 errors). Illustration.*
An **MCP server** exposing three tools: **`scorm_package`** converts a finished HTML learning module into a `.zip` (PIF) any SCORM-compliant LMS can import, **`scorm_validate`** checks any existing SCORM zip (made by any tool) and explains exactly why an LMS would reject it, and **`scorm_selftest`** is a 1-second health check.
**Principle: WRAP, don't rewrite.** Your HTML is preserved; the tool only:
1. **Inlines every asset** (CSS, `@import`, fonts, JS, images, `srcset`, favicons) as data URIs β runs **100% offline**.
2. **Injects a small runtime** that reports **completion**, **progress (%)** and **time spent**, with **resume** across sessions.
3. **Generates the manifest** and **bundles the 15 official ADL XSD schemas** β the manifest is validated against them (real conformance, not just "well-formed").
## β Status β validated on a real LMS
- **325/325 automated checks** green: 23 converter Β· 15 runtime Β· 15 MCP Β· 1 schema conformance (`xmllint`) Β· 6 security Β· 11 features Β· 13 auto-milestones Β· 21 V2 (bundle / `.dc` / score) Β· 10 output-dir Β· 9 tracking-signal Β· 32 hardening Β· 29 SCORM 1.2 Β· 12 CLI/batch Β· 16 web UI Β· **44 mobile-learning migration** Β· **35 package validation** Β· **33 question-level interactions** β plus 6 bonus strict-runtime checks (`scorm-again`).
- **SCORM Cloud (real LMS):** imports cleanly (recognized as *SCORM 2004 4th Ed.*, "manifest looks great"), and the dashboard reports **completion = complete, success = passed, time tracked**.
## Input formats
| Input (`input_path` or `html`) | Handling |
|---|---|
| A single self-contained `.html` (e.g. Claude Design "standalone HTML" export) | assets inlined, runtime injected β v1 path |
| A **folder or `.zip`** (multi-file module) | whole tree preserved; entry HTML inlined; manifest lists every file |
| A **Claude Design `.dc` bundle** (`*.dc.html` + `support.js` + `_ds/`) | auto-detected; CDN libs (React/Babelβ¦) **vendored offline** via `window.__resources` (no source patch); runtime injected before `support.js` |
| A **mobile-learning platform content export** (Excel activity templates + `media/`) | auto-detected; an interactive HTML course is **rebuilt from the templates** β info / transition / flash cards, quiz questions, media codes (`[media:β¦]`, `[H1:β¦]`, `[quote:β¦]`, `!!`), scored quizzes reporting `cmi.score` β then packaged. Course title derived from the template names; with `--batch`, a whole catalogue migrates in one run |
Pass a `.dc` bundle as its **folder or `.zip`** (not the lone `.dc.html`, which is inert without its siblings).
## Scores & quizzes (optional)
Set **`mastery_score`** (0..1) to enable score-based success and add sequencing objectives to the manifest. Report the score from your content in one line β no SCORM knowledge required:
```js
window.SCORM2004.score(8, 0, 10); // raw, min, max
window.dispatchEvent(new CustomEvent("scorm:score", { detail: { raw: 8, min: 0, max: 10 } }));
window.dispatchEvent(new CustomEvent("scorm:progress", { detail: 0.5 })); // 0..1
window.dispatchEvent(new CustomEvent("scorm:complete"));
```
The runtime maps these to `cmi.score.*`, sets `success_status = passed/failed` against `mastery_score`, and reports completion/progress. (`dc:*` event names are accepted as aliases.)
**Question-level tracking (v2.3)** β report each answer as a `cmi.interactions` record, so the LMS gradebook shows *which* questions were missed, not just the total:
```js
window.SCORM2004.interaction({
id: "quiz1-q3", type: "choice",
description: "Which colour is the brand?",
learnerResponse: "Blue", correctResponse: "Red",
result: false, latencyMs: 12000,
});
// or, without touching the API:
window.dispatchEvent(new CustomEvent("scorm:interaction", { detail: { id: "q3", result: true } }));
```
Dialect-aware (2004 `learner_response`/`timestamp` vs 1.2 `student_response`/`time`, `incorrect` vs `wrong`) and best-effort by design: an LMS that refuses interaction writes gets a logged warning and the session carries on. Quizzes generated by the mobile-learning migration report their interactions automatically β one record per question, with the question text, the learner's answer, the expected answer and the latency.
## SCORM 1.2, batch mode, CLI (v2.1)
**SCORM 1.2** β pass `scorm_version: "1.2"` and you get a 1.2 manifest (validated
against the bundled 1.2 XSDs, with `adlcp:masteryscore` when `mastery_score` is
set). The injected runtime is *adaptive*: it speaks to whichever API the hosting
LMS exposes (`API_1484_11` or `API`), maps the data model (single
`lesson_status`, 0-100 score, `HH:MM:SS` session time, 4096-char suspend data)
and never downgrades a `passed` status.
**Batch** β `batch: true` treats `input_path` as a directory of courses (each
sub-directory, `.zip` or `.html` = one course). One package per course, one
consolidated `batch-report.json`, and a broken course never sinks the others.
**CLI** β no MCP client required:
```bash
npx -y scorm-mcp-server ui # local drag & drop web UI
npx -y scorm-mcp-server pack course.html --title "My course"
npx -y scorm-mcp-server pack ./courses --batch --scorm-version 1.2
npx -y scorm-mcp-server validate pkg.zip # conformance-check an existing package
npx -y scorm-mcp-server selftest # 1-second health check
```
**Web UI** β `ui` opens a localhost page: drop an .html or .zip, pick the SCORM
edition and an optional pass mark, download the package. Runs entirely on your
machine; nothing is uploaded anywhere.
**Library** β `buildPackage()` is a public API for pipelines and SaaS backends:
```js
import { buildPackage } from "scorm-mcp-server";
const r = await buildPackage({ html, title: "My course", scormVersion: "1.2", masteryScore: 0.6 });
// r.zip (Buffer) Β· r.fileName Β· r.warnings Β· r.milestoneIds β¦
```
**Diagnostic** β the `scorm_selftest` MCP tool packages a constant built-in HTML
and reports version, duration and output path: it separates "server broken"
from "input problem" in one second.
## Validate any SCORM package (v2.3)
"Why does my LMS reject this zip?" β `scorm_validate` answers it for **any** SCORM package, not only those produced here, and the input is never modified:
```bash
npx -y scorm-mcp-server validate course.zip # human-readable report
npx -y scorm-mcp-server validate course.zip --json # machine-readable
```
Checks: zip readability, `imsmanifest.xml` at the ROOT (detects the classic *"zipped the folder instead of its contents"* mistake and says how to fix it), well-formed manifest, SCORM edition detection (2004/1.2), launchable organization/item/resource chain, launch file and every `` present in the archive (case-only mismatches flagged β they work on Windows and fail on Linux LMS servers), and full **XSD validation against the official ADL schemas** β using the package's own XSDs first and falling back to the embedded copies, so packages that ship without schemas validate too. Exit code 0/1 for CI pipelines; also exposed as the `scorm_validate` MCP tool and the `validatePackage()` library API.
## Install
### Option 0 β try it online, no install
**[https://scormpackager.vercel.app](https://scormpackager.vercel.app)** β drop a course, pick the SCORM edition, download the package.
Files are processed in memory and never stored, but they do travel to a server;
for real work use the local options below, where nothing leaves your machine
(and there is no 4 MB limit).
### Option A β one-click (recommended)
Download **`scorm-mcp-server-x.y.z.mcpb`** from the [Releases](https://github.com/giacomomaria81/scorm-mcp-server/blob/HEAD/../../releases), then in **Claude Desktop β Settings β Extensions**, drag-drop the `.mcpb`, pick an output folder, and enable it.
### Option B β npm (any MCP client)
No install step: add this to your client's MCP config (`~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` for Claude Desktop):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"scorm": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "scorm-mcp-server"],
"env": { "SCORM_OUTPUT_DIR": "/ABSOLUTE/PATH/scorm-packages" }
}
}
}
```
Registry name: **`io.github.giacomomaria81/scorm-mcp-server`** ([MCP registry](https://registry.modelcontextprotocol.io/v0/servers?search=scorm-mcp-server)).
### Option C β from source (developer)
```bash
git clone && cd scorm-mcp-server
npm install # dist/ is prebuilt; npm run build is optional
```
Then point the config at `node /ABSOLUTE/PATH/scorm-mcp-server/dist/index.js`.
Restart Claude. The `scorm_package` tool is now available.
## Usage
In a conversation: build your module with Claude Design, then say **"package this module as SCORM."** Claude calls `scorm_package` and returns the path to the `.zip`.
### Progress & completion β it just works
**You don't have to prepare anything**: if your HTML declares no milestone, the packager **auto-generates them from the document structure** (sections β articles β headings, capped at 8, trigger `view`). Plain HTML gets meaningful progress out of the box. Disable with `auto_milestones: false`. Want `success_status = passed` on completion without touching the HTML? Pass `success_on_completion: true`.
### Declarative milestones (recommended for fine control)
Mark the meaningful steps directly in your HTML β explicit milestones always take precedence over auto-generation. The runtime computes `progress_measure = milestones_reached / total`, and sets `completion_status = "completed"` once all are reached.
| Attribute | Effect |
|---|---|
| `data-jalon="unique-id"` | declares a milestone |
| `data-trigger="view"` | reached when scrolled into view (**default**) |
| `data-trigger="click"` | reached on click |
| `data-trigger="ended"` | reached when a video/audio ends |
```html
β¦
```
Recommended: **4β8 milestones per micro-module**. Resume is automatic (`cmi.suspend_data` + `cmi.location`); progress never regresses.
**Programmatic milestones** β `window.SCORM2004.reach("quiz-passed")` works even if the id has no `data-jalon` element: unknown ids are **declared on the fly** and count in the total. To register one *before* it's reached (accurate denominator), use `window.SCORM2004.declare("quiz-passed")` early. Both survive resume.
**Success status (opt-in)** β add `data-scorm-success="on-completion"` on any element (e.g. ``) and the runtime also sets `cmi.success_status="passed"` when the module completes. Without it, `success_status` is never written.
**Language** β the tool's `language` (BCP-47, default `fr-FR`) is applied as `` when the source HTML doesn't declare one.
**Security** β asset references are confined to the module folder: `../` or absolute paths outside it are never inlined (a warning is emitted instead).
## Test it without an LMS account
Open `scorm-test-harness.html` via a tiny local server and drop a generated `.zip` into it:
```bash
python3 -m http.server 8000 # then open http://localhost:8000/scorm-test-harness.html
```
You'll see live progress %, completion, and the full log of LMS API calls (0 errors expected).
## Build & test
```bash
npm install
npm run build # tsc -> dist/
npm test # 325 checks across 17 suites (xmllint required for the schema tests)
# bonus: validate against a strict independent SCORM 2004 runtime
npm i -D scorm-again && node test/scorm-again.test.mjs
```
Requirements: **Node β₯ 20**, and `xmllint` (`libxml2-utils`) for the schema test.
