What the publisher says

From the Beans repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

@selfagency/beans-mcp 🫘

MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for Beans issue tracker. Provides programmatic and CLI interfaces for AI-powered interactions with Beans workspaces.

Documentation: beans-mcp.self.agency

🤖 Try Beans fully-integrated with GitHub Copilot in VS Code! Install the selfagency.beans-vscode extension.

Usage

npx @selfagency/beans-mcp /path/to/workspace

Versioning

@selfagency/beans-mcp has its own package versioning. Compatibility with the Beans CLI is tracked separately.

At startup, the server compares the installed beans CLI version against the hardcoded supported Beans version: 0.4.2. If they differ, it prints a warning to stderr and continues startup.

Parameters

  • --workspace-root or positional arg: Workspace root path
  • --cli-path: Path to Beans CLI
  • --port: MCP server port (default: 39173)
  • --log-dir: Log directory
  • -h, --help: Print usage and exit
