About Arkitect Mcp

Arkitect-MCP brings architecture-first reasoning to your AI coding workflow. Instead of jumping straight to refactors, the server scans repo context first — platform, workload, health, and intent — then returns actionable cursorGuidance for the agent to follow.

Overview

What is Arkitect MCP?

Arkitect MCP is an architecture-first reasoning server for AI coding workflows. It scans repository context—platform, workload, health, and intent—then returns actionable guidance for the AI agent. It integrates with Cursor via local stdio transport and is open source on GitHub.

How to use Arkitect MCP?

Clone the repository, build the server, and connect it to your MCP client (e.g., Cursor) using stdio transport. An optional Windows desktop app provides guided setup for Cursor. No specific configuration keys are mentioned in the README.
