web-ui-component-spec-mcp 1.0.0

MCP server for the Web UI Component Specification — behavioral specs, tests, and principles for web UI component libraries

Web UI Component Specification — MCP Server

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that gives AI coding assistants direct access to the Web UI Component Specification — a comprehensive behavioral reference for web UI component libraries covering component specs, test scenarios, accessibility requirements, and a step-by-step build guide.

---

What this does

Instead of pasting spec content into prompts manually, this server lets your AI assistant query exactly what it needs, when it needs it:

• Building a component? → Fetch its full spec on demand
• Writing tests? → Get just the test scenarios
• Starting a library? → Get a curated component list for your project type
• Reviewing an implementation? → Validate it against the spec automatically

Read the specification

Prefer the human-readable version? Download the full spec as a PDF:

Web UI Component Specification (v1.0) — PDF

All exported versions live under exports/.

Installation

Option 1 — uvx (recommended, no install required)

uvx web-ui-component-spec-mcp

Option 2 — pip

pip install web-ui-component-spec-mcp

MCP Client Configuration

Add to your MCP client config (Claude Desktop, Cursor, etc.):

uvx:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ui-spec": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["web-ui-spec-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

pip install:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ui-spec": {
      "command": "web-ui-spec-mcp"
    }
  }
}

Clone and run:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ui-spec": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/web-ui-component-spec-mcp/server.py"]
    }
  }
}

The spec content (Markdown files) are included in the source/ directory (latest version available):

File	Description
source/Core_Principles.md	Component philosophy, design tokens, interaction principles
source/Component_Catalog.md	Full catalog of all components with specs and tests
source/Step_By_Step_Guide.md	Step-by-step build guide

---

Available tools

Tool	Description
list_components	Full component index with optional category/tier filtering
get_component_spec	Full spec for one component
get_component_tests	Test scenarios only for one or more components
get_component_summary	Lightweight summary (description + main features)
get_components_by_scenario	Curated component list for a project type
get_core_principles	Core Principles by section
get_step_by_step	Step-by-step guide by step number
get_related_components	Dependencies, dependents, and alternatives
search_components	Fuzzy search by behavior or description
validate_component_checklist	Coverage report against spec requirements

Using the skill

For best results, load the skill file into your AI assistant's system prompt before starting a component build session.

Full skill (recommended for new sessions): skill/skill-full.md

Compact skill (for mid-session use when context is limited): skill/skill-compact.md

---

Example prompts

See examples/example-prompts.md for ready-to-use prompts covering common scenarios: building a component, starting a library, reviewing code, writing tests.
