MCP server for AI-powered CX2 network manipulation with live Cytoscape Web preview
Project description
cx2-mcp
MCP server for AI-powered CX2 network manipulation with live Cytoscape Web preview.
Load local .cx2 files, manipulate them with natural language via Claude Code or any MCP-compatible AI, and preview changes instantly in your browser.
Install
claude mcp add --scope user cx2-mcp -- uvx --from cx2-mcp-poc cx2-mcp --port 8888
Then start a new Claude Code session and say: "Load ~/my-network.cx2"
What it does
- Serves local CX2 files over HTTP with CORS — browser-accessible instantly
- Exposes 16 MCP tools for reading, editing, filtering, and saving networks
- Returns a Cytoscape Web import URL; refresh your browser to see AI edits live
- Writes to disk only when explicitly asked — your file stays yours
