Home: wolfe-jam.github.io/faf-mcp · Hosted MCP endpoint: https://ide.faf.one/mcp/v1 (Streamable HTTP)

The MCP you didn't realise you needed, or wanted but didn't know who to ask, is here. Building on 100,000+ downloads across the FAF ecosystem, we bring you faf-mcp to cure your syncing pain and fuel your chosen AI with optimized context, on-demand.

What's New in 2.3.0 — The Curated Edition

The tools you actually need, up front. faf-mcp now leads with 15 essential tools by default — a clean, focused surface instead of a wall of options. Need everything? Set FAF_TOOLS=all for the full 29 (every tool stays callable by name either way). And every Core tool's description was rewritten so your AI picks the right one, first time.


Define once. Sync everywhere.

You maintain .cursorrules. Your teammate uses AGENTS.md. Someone on the team just switched to Gemini. Every AI tool wants its own context file — and they all say the same thing in different formats.

faf-mcp is the dedicated MCP server for Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, VS Code, and every non-Claude platform. One .faf file in your repo, synced to every format your team needs.

Three Ways to Deploy

Door Method Best For
Hosted mcpaas.live Zero-install, point any MCP client to the URL
Self-Deploy Deploy to Vercel Your own instance, full control
Local bunx faf-mcp IDE integration via stdio transport
Hosted (mcpaas.live)

Point your MCP client to https://ide.faf.one/mcp/v1 — no install, no config, no maintenance. Served from 300+ Cloudflare edges with sub-ms cold starts via 2.7KB Zig-WASM engine.

Self-Deploy (Vercel)

Deploy your own MCP server on Vercel in one click. Once deployed, your server exposes:

  • /health — Health check
  • /info — Server metadata + tool list
  • /mcp/v1 — MCP Streamable HTTP transport
Local (npm)
npx faf-mcp

Interop Tools

Tool Platform Action
faf_agents OpenAI Codex Import/export/sync AGENTS.md
faf_cursor Cursor IDE Import/export/sync .cursorrules
faf_gemini Google Gemini Import/export/sync GEMINI.md
faf_conductor Conductor Import/export directory structure

Core tier: 15 essential tools shown by default; set FAF_TOOLS=all for the full 29 (every tool stays callable by name either way) · with CLI fallback · 9 test suites · 7 bundled parsers


Cloud Sync

Share your FAF context globally via mcpaas.live:

Tool Purpose
faf_cloud_publish Upload to cloud, get shareable URL
faf_cloud_fetch Pull context from cloud
faf_cloud_list List available souls
faf_cloud_search Search across souls
faf_cloud_share Generate share links

Example Workflow:

# Upload your project.faf
faf_cloud_publish { soul_name: "my-project" }
 https://mcpaas.live/souls/my-project

# Anyone can fetch it
faf_cloud_fetch { soul_name: "my-project" }
 Context merged into local project.faf

Zero-install sharing - Recipients need no MCP setup. Served from 300+ Cloudflare edges with <1ms cold starts via 2.7KB Zig-WASM engine.


Eternal Bi-Sync

Your .faf file and your platform context files stay synchronized in milliseconds.

project.faf  ←── 8ms ──→  .cursorrules / AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md / GEMINI.md
                    Single source of truth
  • Update either side → both stay aligned
  • --all flag syncs to all four formats at once
  • Zero manual maintenance
  • Works across teams, branches, sessions

AI assistants forget. They drift. Every new session, AI starts guessing again. Bi-sync means context never goes stale.


Tier System: From Blind to Optimized

Tier Score Status
TROPHY 100% AI never has to guess
GOLD 99%+ 1 slot from Trophy
SILVER 95%+ Close — keep going
BRONZE 85%+ Interim — keep going
GREEN 70%+ Interim — keep going
YELLOW 55%+ AI flipping coins
RED <55% AI working blind
WHITE 0% No context at all

At 55%, AI is guessing half the time. At 100%, AI is optimized.


use>faf | Prompt Pattern

Start every prompt with "Use FAF" to invoke MCP tools:

Use FAF to initialize my project
Use FAF to score my AI-readiness
Use FAF to sync my context
Use FAF to enhance my project

Works on all platforms — stops web search, forces tool usage.

Tool Purpose
faf_init Initialize project.faf
faf_score Check AI-readiness (0-100%)
faf_sync Sync context across platforms
faf_bi_sync Bi-directional .faf CLAUDE.md
faf_read Parse and validate FAF files
faf_write Create/update FAF with validation
Interop Tools
