@njuptlzf/mcp-adapter
Universal MCP (Model Context Protocol) adapter — Pi as a first-class host (native extension), plus any MCP-compatible coding agent via the universal mcp-server stdio entry point.
Fork of
nicobailon/pi-mcp-adapter. The full upstream documentation is preserved in README-src.md.
Use MCP servers without burning your context window: one ~200-token proxy tool instead of hundreds of tool definitions. Servers start lazily on first use, and tool metadata is cached so search/describe work with no live connection.
What this fork changes
- Repackaged as
@njuptlzf/mcp-adapter— org-scoped npm package, currently5.2.0-0.0.6(tracks upstreamv5.2.0). - Config-watch self-heal for the stdio entry (issue #34) —
mcp-serverfingerprints every config file it loaded and re-checks them on a timer; a manifest written after startup no longer leaves the process stuck with stale servers. On drift the adapter logs the truth and exits(0) so a supervising client respawns it with the fresh config;mcp({ action: "reload" })forces the same restart manually, andMCP_CONFIG_WATCH=0downgrades to warn-only.mcp({})status and tool-not-found results report the config paths and whether they changed since process start. - Pure upstream core —
index.ts,config.ts,agent-dir.ts, etc. run as upstream code; the fork's host layer lives inadapters/(andinterfaces/) so upstream merges stay surgical. - Universal host —
adapters/universal-host.tsimpersonates Pi'sExtensionAPI, so the same engine runs unchanged behind themcp-serverstdio layer for any MCP-compatible agent. - Prebuilt subpath exports —
@njuptlzf/mcp-adapter/types,/config, and/metadata-cacheship compiled.js+.d.tsfromdist/.
Install
Pi (recommended)
pi install npm:@njuptlzf/mcp-adapter
Restart Pi. Standard MCP files (.mcp.json, ~/.config/mcp/mcp.json) are discovered automatically.
Any other MCP-compatible agent
