appCN tools (5)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postsRead from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.
get_componentEverything an agent needs to add and correctly use one appCN component: its docs (anatomy, delight detail, props, usage examples, accessibility notes), the actual source file contents, the npm packages and registry helpers it depends on, and the install command. Prefer installing via the install command rather than pasting `files` by hand \u2014 that resolves dependencies for you.
get_design_guideappCN's taste layer: the motion duration/easing/spring tokens, the press-scale and haptics conventions, the variant API rules, accessibility requirements, and the explicit 'what NOT to do' list. Read this before writing or modifying any React Native component so the code feels like appCN \u2014 never hand-type durations or easings, reach for these tokens.
get_install_commandThe exact command to add an appCN component to a project. Returns three install methods \u2014 the appCN CLI (recommended; handles NativeWind + Reanimated setup), shadcn namespaced, and shadcn by URL (zero setup) \u2014 for the requested package manager (or all of them).
list_componentsList every appCN component, optionally filtered by category. Returns each component's slug, title, category, one-line description, and its signature 'delight' detail. Start here to see what's available, then call get_component for the full source and docs.
search_componentsFind appCN components by intent or keyword \u2014 e.g. 'chat input', 'voice indicator', 'streaming message', 'reasoning'. Returns ranked matches with their delight detail. Use get_component on the best match for the full source and docs.

What the publisher says

appCN
Copy-paste mobile components for React Native + Expo.
A shadcn-philosophy library: you own the source, NativeWind styles the surface, Reanimated drives the motion — and the featured AI-native collection ships streaming bubbles, prompt composers, reasoning traces, and a reactive 3D voice orb.

Quick start
The CLI handles NativeWind + Reanimated wiring and registers the @app-cn shadcn namespace for you. One command to set up, one to add a component.
# 1. (Recommended) One-shot project setup
npx @app-cn/cli@latest init
# 2. Add any component by slug
npx @app-cn/cli@latest add voice-spherePrefer your own pipeline? appcn add is a thin wrapper around shadcn — you can skip the CLI entirely:
# Copy a single component via shadcn (no setup, one-off)
npx shadcn@latest add https://appcn.vercel.app/r/voice-sphere.json
# Or pull the whole library as a managed dep
npm install @app-cn/uiBuilding with an AI agent? Add the appCN MCP server so Claude Code, Cursor, or Windsurf can discover and install components for you — and write new code in appCN's motion/haptic style:
# Claude Code
claude mcp add appcn -- npx -y @app-cn/mcpSee MCP docs for Cursor / Windsurf / VS Code config.
Status: v0.1.0 live on npm. Five components shipped — the AI collection
is the marketed wedge and is the first place to land new work.
What's in the box
New: appCN is live on real phones — scan a QR with Expo Go
and the entire component gallery loads on Android or iPhone in seconds.
No emulator, no developer account. Standalone Play Store APK is in review —
shipping soon.
