swisstip-quickstart

Last update: 24 September 2026

The one command that serves and tests a published Swiss TIP knowledge pack on your machine. It fetches the pack from its public repository, verifies every file against the pack's readiness record, and runs the first tests with no model and no further network: the release validates, the semantic index is bound to it, the pack's acceptance suite and regression pack are replayed against it, and a client round trip runs over MCP against the server. It ends with the commands that serve the pack and connect an MCP client.

Use

Python 3.14 or newer. With uv, uvx fetches the command and a matching Python on first use, in any directory:

uvx swisstip-quickstart mvp-zurich                # fetch into ./.local/packs/mvp-zurich, check, test
uvx swisstip-quickstart mvp-zurich --serve        # then serve on http://127.0.0.1:8000/mcp
uvx swisstip-quickstart mvp-zurich --no-fetch     # the checks and tests again, offline
uvx swisstip-quickstart --url http://127.0.0.1:8000/mcp   # the round trip against a running server

The pack is the argument; the packs of the MVP are published in swiss-tip-mvp, and --ref names a commit or tag of it. --help lists the rest.
