Load & create VibeMap product specs from your coding agent; sync build progress.
Copy the AI prompt to install this server into Claude Code, Cursor, or another agent β or use 1-click editor setup below.
π‘ Paste into ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows)
Connect your IDE agent to VibeMap via the Model Context Protocol. Load project specs into any MCP-compatible AI coding agent, or reverse-engineer an existing codebase back into structured VibeMap assets.
Generate your API key at vibemap.ai β Account β Developer β API Keys.
Outbound (VibeMap β IDE): Load your full project context β features, user stories, acceptance criteria, personas, pages, and DB schema β into your IDE agent. The agent builds to spec and updates your VibeMap kanban in real time as it works.
Inbound (IDE β VibeMap): Point the server at an existing codebase and VibeMap's AI will reverse-engineer it into a structured set of features, user stories, and acceptance criteria.
Config file: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows)
Fully restart Claude Desktop after saving. Confirm the π¨ hammer icon appears in the chat input.
Open Settings β MCP and add:
Same format as Cursor. Add to your Windsurf MCP settings file and restart.

The server also exposes prompts β invocable workflows your IDE surfaces as slash commands (in Claude Code: /mcp__vibemap__<name>). The body of each prompt is expanded from VibeMap's server at call time, so you invoke a workflow rather than paste a long instruction. Each takes a projectId; the code-oriented ones also accept an optional localPath.
| Prompt | Args | Description |
|---|---|---|
author_spec | projectId, localPath? | Author the full spec graph from your local codebase (bring-your-own-agent, code-first) |
author_idea | projectId | Author the full spec graph from the project idea (bring-your-own-agent, idea-first) |
sync_changes | projectId, localPath? | Detect and reconcile spec drift since the last sync |
code_map | projectId, localPath? | Build and submit a structural code map |
load_context | projectId | Load the project's spec context into your agent |
