cognitive-core-mcp
Standalone MCP server (stdio) that exposes Cognitive Core Rooms as tools to any MCP-compatible client — Claude Code, Cherry Studio, Continue, Zed, Cursor.
A thin HTTP bridge: ~300 lines of Python, no state, no memory of its own.
Install
pip install --user cognitive-core-mcp
Or no-pip flavour:
mkdir -p ~/.local/bin
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mocartlex-wq/cognitive-core/main/mcp-wrapper/cognitive_core_mcp.py \
-o ~/.local/bin/cognitive_core_mcp
chmod +x ~/.local/bin/cognitive_core_mcp
pip install --user mcp httpx
Configure Claude Code
Add to ~/.claude/settings.json:
{
"mcpServers": {

"command": "cognitive_core_mcp",
"env": {
"COGCORE_URL": "https://your-server.example",
"COGCORE_AGENT_ID": "alice",
