sigil-mcp

Library for building Model Context Protocol servers in Sigil. Provides the server loop, JSON-RPC 2.0 framing, and channel-based message routing primitives so any Sigil project can expose tools and resources to MCP clients.

sigil-cli ships a built-in dev-tools server on top of this library, invoked via sigil mcp serve, which exposes documentation, lint, format, test execution, and nREPL-backed evaluation so AI agents can work idiomatically against a live Sigil project.

Modules

Building your own MCP server

(import (sigil mcp))

(define server
  (mcp-server name: "my-server" version: "1.0"))

(mcp-server-register-tool! server
  name: "echo"
  description: "Echoes its input back."
  handler: (lambda (args) ...))

(mcp-server-run server)

For a complete example, see sigil-cli's (sigil cli mcp) module or projects like bureau, courier, folio, and minder.
