MCP Integration Policy

Integration policy and usage guidelines for MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers in SuperClaude Framework.

MCP Server Definitions

Core MCP Servers

Memory & Error Learning

ReflexionMemory (Built-in, Always Available)

yaml
Name: ReflexionMemory
Purpose: Error history storage and learning
Category: Memory Management (Built-in)
Auto-Managed: true (internal implementation)
PM Agent Role: Automatically used on errors

Capabilities:
  - Memory of past errors and solutions
  - Keyword-based similar error search
  - Learning to prevent recurrence
  - Project-scoped memory

Implementation:
  Location: superclaude/core/pm_init/reflexion_memory.py
  Storage: docs/memory/reflexion.jsonl (local file)
  Search: Keyword-based (50% overlap threshold)

Note: This is an internal implementation, not an external MCP server

Mindbase MCP (Optional Enhancement via airis-mcp-gateway)

yaml
Name: mindbase
Purpose: Semantic search across all conversation history
Category: Memory Management (Optional MCP)
Auto-Managed: false (external MCP server - requires installation)
PM Agent Role: Automatically selected by Claude when available

Capabilities:
  - Persistence of all conversation history (PostgreSQL + pgvector)
  - Semantic search (qwen3-embedding:8b)
  - Cross-project knowledge sharing
  - Learning from all past conversations

Tools:
  - mindbase_search: Semantic search
  - mindbase_store: Conversation storage
  - mindbase_health: Health check

Installation:
  Requires: airis-mcp-gateway with "recommended" profile
  See: https://github.com/agiletec-inc/airis-mcp-gateway

Profile Dependency:
  - "recommended" profile: mindbase included (long-term projects)
  - "minimal" profile: mindbase NOT included (lightweight, quick tasks)

Usage Pattern:
  - With installation + recommended profile: Claude automatically uses it
  - Otherwise: Falls back to ReflexionMemory
  - PM Agent instructs: "Search past errors" (Claude selects tool)

Note: Optional enhancement. SuperClaude works fully with ReflexionMemory alone.

PM Agent Integration Rules

Session Lifecycle

yaml
Session Start:
  Auto-Execute:
    1. git status && git branch
    2. Read CLAUDE.md
    3. Read docs/patterns/*.md (latest 5)
    4. Mindbase auto-load (automatic)

  MCPs Used:
    - Mindbase: Automatic (no explicit call)
    - Others: None (wait for task)

  Output: 📍 [branch] | [status] | 🧠 [token]%

Pre-Implementation:
  Auto-Execute:
    1. Read relevant docs/patterns/
    2. Read relevant docs/mistakes/
    3. Confidence check

  MCPs Used:
    - Context7: If new library (automatic)
    - Serena: If complex refactor (automatic)

  Decision:
    High Confidence (>90%): Proceed
    Medium (70-89%): Present options
    Low (<70%): Stop, request clarification

During Implementation:
  Manual Trigger:
    - TodoWrite: Progress tracking
    - Serena: Code understanding (if needed)
    - Sequential: Complex analysis (if needed)

  MCPs Used:
    - Serena: On code complexity trigger
    - Sequential: On analysis keyword
    - Context7: On documentation need

Post-Implementation:
  Auto-Execute:
    1. Self-evaluation (Four Questions)
    2. Pattern extraction
    3. Documentation update

  MCPs Used:
    - Mindbase: Automatic save
    - Others: None (file-based documentation)

  Output:
    - Success  docs/patterns/
    - Failure  docs/mistakes/
    - Global  CLAUDE.md

Anti-Patterns (禁止事項)

DO NOT

yaml
 Mindbaseを明示的に操作:
  Reason: 完全自動管理、PM Agentは触らない
  Instead: 何もしない(自動で動く)

 Serenaをタスク管理に使用:
  Reason: コード理解専用
  Instead: TodoWrite使用

 write_memory() / read_memory() 使用:
  Reason: Serenaはコード理解専用、タスク管理ではない
  Instead: TodoWrite + docs/

 docs/memory/ ディレクトリ作成:
  Reason: Mindbaseと重複
  Instead: docs/patterns/  docs/mistakes/ 使用

 全タスクでSequential使用:
  Reason: トークン浪費
  Instead: 複雑分析時のみ

 Context7をプロジェクトドキュメントに使用:
  Reason: 公式ドキュメント専用
  Instead: Read docs/ 使用

Best Practices

Efficient MCP Usage

yaml
 Right Tool for Right Job:
  Simple  Native tools (Read, Edit, Grep)
  Medium  Context7 (new library)
  Complex  Serena + Sequential

 Lazy Evaluation:
  Don't preload MCPs
  Activate only when needed
  Let PM Agent auto-trigger

 Clear Separation:
  Memory: Mindbase (automatic)
  Knowledge: docs/ (file-based)
  Progress: TodoWrite (session)
  Code: Serena (understanding)

 Documentation First:
  Pre-Implementation: Context7 + docs/patterns/
  During: TodoWrite tracking
  Post: docs/patterns/ or docs/mistakes/
