projio 0.1.0

Project knowledge orchestrator and MCP server for research repositories

projio

Project knowledge orchestrator and MCP server for research repositories.

Generates project scaffolding (.projio/ workspace, Makefile, mkdocs.yml, and optional kind-specific starters), builds project websites, and exposes a FastMCP server (stdio) that gives Claude unified access to indexio, biblio, notio, and codio tools.

Install

pip install projio
# or editable with all ecosystem packages:
make dev

Quick start

# Scaffold .projio/ workspace
projio init .

# Scaffold a thin package/tool project
projio init . --kind tool

# Scaffold a thin study project
projio init . --kind study

# Generated Makefile shortcuts
make projio-status
make projio-auth

# Scaffold ~/.config/projio/config.yml
projio config init-user

# Show merged user + project config
projio config -C . show

# Show status
projio status -C .

# Start MCP server (stdio)
projio mcp -C .

# Site operations
projio site build
projio site serve

# Project helpers
projio sibling github
projio sibling gitlab
projio sibling ria
projio docs mkdocs-init
projio auth doctor

For MkDocs projects, projio can also mount the indexio chatbot. Set site.chatbot.enabled: true in .projio/config.yml; projio site serve will auto-start a local indexio backend and inject the widget into the served site.

Helper config

Project-local defaults live in .projio/config.yml under helpers:. Optional user defaults live in ~/.config/projio/config.yml and are merged first, with project config taking precedence. For GitHub and GitLab, DataLad/Git config remains the source of truth for site, access, and stored credentials; projio only fills project-local conventions and previews the resulting commands.

Helper commands are preview-first. Pass --yes to execute the generated datalad command.
