## Quick Start
1. **Set Up Project**
```bash
# Create and activate virtual environment
uv venv
.venv\Scripts\activate # Windows
source .venv/bin/activate # Unix
# Install package and dependencies
uv pip install -e .
# For development with testing tools
uv pip install -e ".[dev]"
# For all optional dependencies
uv pip install -e ".[all]"
```
2. **Run the Server**
```bash
# Run directly
uv run -m mcp_sequential_thinking.server
# Or use the installed script
mcp-sequential-thinking
```
3. **Run Tests**
```bash
# Run all tests
pytest
# Run with coverage report
pytest --cov=mcp_sequential_thinking
```
## Claude Desktop Integration
Add to your Claude Desktop configuration (`%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json` on Windows):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"sequential-thinking": {
"command": "uv",
"args": [
"--directory",
"C:\\path\\to\\your\\mcp-sequential-thinking\\run_server.py",
"run",
"server.py"
]
}
}
}
```
Alternatively, if you've installed the package with `pip install -e .`, you can use:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"sequential-thinking": {
"command": "mcp-sequential-thinking"
}
}
}
```
You can also run it directly using uvx and skipping the installation step:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"sequential-thinking": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": [
"--from",
"git+https://github.com/arben-adm/mcp-sequential-thinking",
"--with",
"portalocker",
"mcp-sequential-thinking"
]
}
}
}
```
# How It Works
The server maintains a history of thoughts and processes them through a structured workflow. Each thought is validated using Pydantic models, categorized into thinking stages, and stored with relevant metadata in a thread-safe storage system. The server automatically handles data persistence, backup creation, and provides tools for analyzing relationships between thoughts.
## Usage Guide
The Sequential Thinking server exposes three main tools:
### 1. `process_thought`
Records and analyzes a new thought in your sequential thinking process.
**Parameters:**
- `thought` (string): The content of your thought
- `thought_number` (integer): Position in your sequence (e.g., 1 for first thought)
- `total_thoughts` (integer): Expected total thoughts in the sequence
- `next_thought_needed` (boolean): Whether more thoughts are needed after this one
- `stage` (string): The thinking stage - must be one of:
- "Problem Definition"
- "Research"
- "Analysis"
- "Synthesis"
- "Conclusion"
- `tags` (list of strings, optional): Keywords or categories for your thought
- `axioms_used` (list of strings, optional): Principles or axioms applied in your thought
- `assumptions_challenged` (list of strings, optional): Assumptions your thought questions or challenges
**Example:**
```python
# First thought in a 5-thought sequence
process_thought(
thought="The problem of climate change requires analysis of multiple factors including emissions, policy, and technology adoption.",
thought_number=1,
total_thoughts=5,
next_thought_needed=True,
stage="Problem Definition",
tags=["climate", "global policy", "systems thinking"],
axioms_used=["Complex problems require multifaceted solutions"],
assumptions_challenged=["Technology alone can solve climate change"]
)
```
### 2. `generate_summary`
Generates a summary of your entire thinking process.
**Example output:**
```json
{
"summary": {
"totalThoughts": 5,
"stages": {
"Problem Definition": 1,
"Research": 1,
"Analysis": 1,
"Synthesis": 1,
"Conclusion": 1
},
"timeline": [
{"number": 1, "stage": "Problem Definition"},
{"number": 2, "stage": "Research"},
{"number": 3, "stage": "Analysis"},
{"number": 4, "stage": "Synthesis"},
{"number": 5, "stage": "Conclusion"}
]
}
}
```
### 3. `clear_history`
Resets the thinking process by clearing all recorded thoughts.
## Practical Applications
- **Decision Making**: Work through important decisions methodically
- **Problem Solving**: Break complex problems into manageable components
- **Research Planning**: Structure your research approach with clear stages
- **Writing Organization**: Develop ideas progressively before writing
- **Project Analysis**: Evaluate projects through defined analytical stages
## Getting Started
With the proper MCP setup, simply use the `process_thought` tool to begin working through your thoughts in sequence. As you progress, you can get an overview with `generate_summary` and reset when needed with `clear_history`.

11. [Separating Test Code](#11-separating-test-code)
12. [Creating Reusable Storage Utilities](#12-creating-reusable-storage-utilities)
## 1. Modifying Thinking Stages
You can customize the thinking stages by modifying the `ThoughtStage` enum in `models.py`:
```python
class ThoughtStage(Enum):
"""Custom thinking stages for your specific workflow."""
OBSERVE = "Observe"
HYPOTHESIZE = "Hypothesize"
EXPERIMENT = "Experiment"
ANALYZE = "Analyze"
CONCLUDE = "Conclude"
```
## 2. Enhancing Thought Data Structure
Extend the `ThoughtData` class to include additional fields:
```python
from pydantic import Field, field_validator
class EnhancedThoughtData(ThoughtData):
"""Enhanced thought data with additional fields."""
confidence_level: float = 0.0
supporting_evidence: List[str] = Field(default_factory=list)
counter_arguments: List[str] = Field(default_factory=list)
@field_validator('confidence_level')
def validate_confidence_level(cls, value):
"""Validate confidence level."""
if not 0.0 <= value <= 1.0:
raise ValueError("Confidence level must be between 0.0 and 1.0")
return value
```
## 3. Adding Persistence with a Database
Implement a database-backed storage solution:
```python
from sqlalchemy import create_engine, Column, Integer, String, Float, Boolean, ForeignKey
from sqlalchemy.ext.declarative import declarative_base
from sqlalchemy.orm import sessionmaker, relationship
Base = declarative_base()
class ThoughtModel(Base):
"""SQLAlchemy model for thought data."""
__tablename__ = "thoughts"
id = Column(Integer, primary_key=True)
thought = Column(String, nullable=False)
thought_number = Column(Integer, nullable=False)
total_thoughts = Column(Integer, nullable=False)
next_thought_needed = Column(Boolean, nullable=False)
stage = Column(String, nullable=False)
timestamp = Column(String, nullable=False)
tags = relationship("TagModel", back_populates="thought")
axioms = relationship("AxiomModel", back_populates="thought")
assumptions = relationship("AssumptionModel", back_populates="thought")
class DatabaseStorage:
"""Database-backed storage for thought data."""
def __init__(self, db_url: str = "sqlite:///thoughts.db"):
"""Initialize database connection."""
self.engine = create_engine(db_url)
Base.metadata.create_all(self.engine)
self.Session = sessionmaker(bind=self.engine)
def add_thought(self, thought: ThoughtData) -> None:
"""Add a thought to the database."""
with self.Session() as session:
# Convert ThoughtData to ThoughtModel
thought_model = ThoughtModel(
thought=thought.thought,
thought_number=thought.thought_number,
total_thoughts=thought.total_thoughts,
next_thought_needed=thought.next_thought_needed,
stage=thought.stage.value,
timestamp=thought.timestamp
)
session.add(thought_model)
session.commit()
```
## 4. Implementing Enhanced Analysis
Add more sophisticated analysis capabilities:
```python
from sklearn.feature_extraction.text import TfidfVectorizer
from sklearn.metrics.pairwise import cosine_similarity
import numpy as np
class AdvancedAnalyzer:
"""Advanced thought analysis using NLP techniques."""
def __init__(self):
"""Initialize the analyzer."""
self.vectorizer = TfidfVectorizer()
self.thought_vectors = None
self.thoughts = []
def add_thought(self, thought: ThoughtData) -> None:
"""Add a thought to the analyzer."""
self.thoughts.append(thought)
# Recompute vectors
self._compute_vectors()
def _compute_vectors(self) -> None:
"""Compute TF-IDF vectors for all thoughts."""
if not self.thoughts:
return
thought_texts = [t.thought for t in self.thoughts]
self.thought_vectors = self.vectorizer.fit_transform(thought_texts)
def find_similar_thoughts(self, thought: ThoughtData, top_n: int = 3) -> List[Tuple[ThoughtData, float]]:
"""Find thoughts similar to the given thought using cosine similarity."""
if thought not in self.thoughts:
self.add_thought(thought)
thought_idx = self.thoughts.index(thought)
thought_vector = self.thought_vectors[thought_idx]
# Compute similarities
similarities = cosine_similarity(thought_vector, self.thought_vectors).flatten()
# Get top N similar thoughts (excluding self)
similar_indices = np.argsort(similarities)[::-1][1:top_n+1]
return [(self.thoughts[idx], similarities[idx]) for idx in similar_indices]
```
## 5. Creating Custom Prompts
Add custom prompts to guide the thinking process:
```python
from mcp.server.fastmcp.prompts import base
@mcp.prompt()
def problem_definition_prompt(problem_statement: str) -> list[base.Message]:
"""Create a prompt for the Problem Definition stage."""
return [
base.SystemMessage(
"You are a structured thinking assistant helping to define a problem clearly."
),
base.UserMessage(f"I need to define this problem: {problem_statement}"),
base.UserMessage(
"Please help me create a clear problem definition by addressing:\n"
"1. What is the core issue?\n"
"2. Who is affected?\n"
"3. What are the boundaries of the problem?\n"
"4. What would a solution look like?\n"
"5. What constraints exist?"
)
]
@mcp.prompt()
def research_prompt(problem_definition: str) -> list[base.Message]:
"""Create a prompt for the Research stage."""
return [
base.SystemMessage(
"You are a research assistant helping to gather information about a problem."
),
base.UserMessage(f"I've defined this problem: {problem_definition}"),
base.UserMessage(
"Please help me research this problem by:\n"
"1. Identifying key information needed\n"
"2. Suggesting reliable sources\n"
"3. Outlining research questions\n"
"4. Proposing a research plan"
)
]
```
## 6. Advanced Configuration
Implement a configuration system for your server:
```python
import yaml
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field
from typing import Dict, List, Optional
class ServerConfig(BaseModel):
"""Configuration for the Sequential Thinking server."""
server_name: str
storage_type: str = "file" # "file" or "database"
storage_path: Optional[str] = None
database_url: Optional[str] = None
default_stages: List[str] = Field(default_factory=list)
max_thoughts_per_session: int = 100
enable_advanced_analysis: bool = False
@classmethod
def from_yaml(cls, file_path: str) -> "ServerConfig":
"""Load configuration from a YAML file."""
with open(file_path, 'r') as f:
config_data = yaml.safe_load(f)
return cls(**config_data)
def to_yaml(self, file_path: str) -> None:
"""Save configuration to a YAML file."""
with open(file_path, 'w') as f:
yaml.dump(self.model_dump(), f)
# Usage
config = ServerConfig.from_yaml("config.yaml")
# Initialize storage based on configuration
if config.storage_type == "file":
storage = ThoughtStorage(config.storage_path)
else:
storage = DatabaseStorage(config.database_url)
```
## 7. Web UI Integration
Create a simple web UI for your server:
```python
from fastapi import FastAPI, HTTPException
from fastapi.middleware.cors import CORSMiddleware
from pydantic import BaseModel
app = FastAPI(title="Sequential Thinking UI")
# Enable CORS
app.add_middleware(
CORSMiddleware,
allow_origins=["*"],
allow_credentials=True,
allow_methods=["*"],
allow_headers=["*"],
)
class ThoughtRequest(BaseModel):
"""Request model for adding a thought."""
thought: str
thought_number: int
total_thoughts: int
next_thought_needed: bool
stage: str
tags: List[str] = []
axioms_used: List[str] = []
assumptions_challenged: List[str] = []
@app.post("/thoughts/")
async def add_thought(request: ThoughtRequest):
"""Add a new thought."""
try:
# Convert stage string to enum
thought_stage = ThoughtStage.from_string(request.stage)
# Create thought data
thought_data = ThoughtData(
thought=request.thought,
thought_number=request.thought_number,
total_thoughts=request.total_thoughts,
next_thought_needed=request.next_thought_needed,
stage=thought_stage,
tags=request.tags,
axioms_used=request.axioms_used,
assumptions_challenged=request.assumptions_challenged
)
# Store thought
storage.add_thought(thought_data)
# Analyze the thought
all_thoughts = storage.get_all_thoughts()
analysis = ThoughtAnalyzer.analyze_thought(thought_data, all_thoughts)
return analysis
except Exception as e:
raise HTTPException(status_code=400, detail=str(e))
@app.get("/thoughts/")
async def get_thoughts():
"""Get all thoughts."""
all_thoughts = storage.get_all_thoughts()
return {
"thoughts": [t.to_dict() for t in all_thoughts]
}
@app.get("/summary/")
async def get_summary():
"""Get a summary of the thinking process."""
all_thoughts = storage.get_all_thoughts()
return ThoughtAnalyzer.generate_summary(all_thoughts)
```
## 8. Visualization Tools
Add visualization capabilities to your server:
```python
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import io
import base64
from typing import List, Dict, Any
class ThoughtVisualizer:
"""Visualization tools for thought data."""
@staticmethod
def create_stage_distribution_chart(thoughts: List[ThoughtData]) -> str:
"""Create a pie chart showing distribution of thoughts by stage."""
# Count thoughts by stage
stage_counts = {}
for thought in thoughts:
stage = thought.stage.value
if stage not in stage_counts:
stage_counts[stage] = 0
stage_counts[stage] += 1
# Create pie chart
plt.figure(figsize=(8, 8))
plt.pie(
stage_counts.values(),
labels=stage_counts.keys(),
autopct='%1.1f%%',
startangle=90
)
plt.axis('equal') # Equal aspect ratio ensures that pie is drawn as a circle
plt.title('Thought Distribution by Stage')
# Convert plot to base64 string
buf = io.BytesIO()
plt.savefig(buf, format='png')
buf.seek(0)
img_str = base64.b64encode(buf.read()).decode('utf-8')
plt.close()
return f"data:image/png;base64,{img_str}"
@staticmethod
def create_thinking_timeline(thoughts: List[ThoughtData]) -> str:
"""Create a timeline visualization of the thinking process."""
# Sort thoughts by number
sorted_thoughts = sorted(thoughts, key=lambda t: t.thought_number)
# Create stage colors
stages = list(ThoughtStage)
colors = plt.cm.viridis(np.linspace(0, 1, len(stages)))
stage_colors = {stage.value: colors[i] for i, stage in enumerate(stages)}
# Create timeline
plt.figure(figsize=(12, 6))
for i, thought in enumerate(sorted_thoughts):
plt.scatter(
thought.thought_number,
0,
s=100,
color=stage_colors[thought.stage.value],
label=thought.stage.value if i == 0 or thought.stage != sorted_thoughts[i-1].stage else ""
)
# Add connecting lines
if i > 0:
plt.plot(
[sorted_thoughts[i-1].thought_number, thought.thought_number],
[0, 0],
'k-',
alpha=0.3
)
# Remove duplicate legend entries
handles, labels = plt.gca().get_legend_handles_labels()
by_label = dict(zip(labels, handles))
plt.legend(by_label.values(), by_label.keys(), title="Thinking Stages")
plt.title('Thinking Process Timeline')
plt.xlabel('Thought Number')
plt.yticks([])
plt.grid(axis='x', linestyle='--', alpha=0.7)
# Convert plot to base64 string
buf = io.BytesIO()
plt.savefig(buf, format='png')
buf.seek(0)
img_str = base64.b64encode(buf.read()).decode('utf-8')
plt.close()
return f"data:image/png;base64,{img_str}"
```
## 9. Integration with External Tools
Connect your server to external tools and APIs:
```python
import requests
from typing import Dict, Any, List, Optional
class ExternalToolsIntegration:
"""Integration with external tools and APIs."""
def __init__(self, api_key: Optional[str] = None):
"""Initialize with optional API key."""
self.api_key = api_key

pass
def export_to_notion(self, thoughts: List[ThoughtData], database_id: str) -> Dict[str, Any]:
"""Export thoughts to a Notion database."""
if not self.api_key:
raise ValueError("API key required for Notion integration")
# Example using Notion API
url = "https://api.notion.com/v1/pages"

}
}
}
response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, json=data)
response.raise_for_status()
results.append(response.json())
return {"exported": len(results), "results": results}
```
## 10. Collaborative Thinking
Implement collaborative features for team thinking:
```python
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field
from typing import Dict, List, Optional, Set

## 11. Separating Test Code
Separate test-specific code from production code for better organization:
```python
# mcp_sequential_thinking/testing.py
"""Test utilities for the sequential thinking package.

## 12. Creating Reusable Storage Utilities
Extract common storage operations into reusable utilities:
