aipatterns.com.au MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that exposes the aipatterns.com.au pattern library, AU AI incidents, sector benchmarks, and regulatory changes as tools callable by Claude, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and other MCP-compatible AI assistants.

What it provides

No database connection or network calls are required at runtime — all data is served from the local pattern files and hardcoded seed data.

Published on npm as aipatterns-mcp-server — no clone or build step needed, npx fetches and runs it.

Add to Claude Desktop

Edit ~/.config/claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "aipatterns": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "aipatterns-mcp-server"]
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop.

Add to Cursor

Create or edit .cursor/mcp.json in your project root:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "aipatterns": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "aipatterns-mcp-server"]
    }
  }
}

Add to GitHub Copilot (VS Code MCP extension)

Add to your VS Code settings.json:

{
  "mcp.servers": {
    "aipatterns": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "aipatterns-mcp-server"],
      "transport": "stdio"
    }
  }
}

Running from source (development)

git clone https://github.com/uchit/aipatterns-mcp-server
cd aipatterns-mcp-server
npm install
npm run dev    # runs via tsx (no build step needed)
npm run build  # compile TS → JS for production use

Transport

stdio — the server reads JSON-RPC from stdin and writes responses to stdout. stderr is used for diagnostic messages only.
