You run a dedicated thinking space for complex problem solving with an MCP server that exposes a structured think tool. It provides a separate thinking context, a timestamped thought history, and support for multiple transports so you can connect either locally or over a channel-equipped server workflow.

How to use

To use the think MCP server with your client, run the local think server and point your MCP client to it. You can keep the Think tool on a local stdio transport for fast, in-process communication, or run it over SSE to connect to a remote or multiplexed environment. Your client will send think prompts, and the server will respond with a recorded thought and a timestamp, allowing the connected LLM to reference a structured thinking space during complex tasks.

How to install

Prerequisites: you need Python 3.8+ and pip installed on your system. You may also want git if you choose to install from source.

pip install mcp-think

If you prefer to install from source, clone the repository and install in editable mode.

git clone https://github.com/ddkang1/mcp-think.git
cd mcp-think
pip install -e .

You can run the MCP think server directly after installation. By default, it uses SSE transport.

mcp-think

If you want to use stdio transport, start the server with the stdio option.

mcp-think --transport stdio

To expose the server on a specific host and port for SSE transport, provide host and port.

mcp-think --host 0.0.0.0 --port 3001

Configuration and usage notes

Configure your client to connect to the think server using the appropriate transport. For a local stdio setup, the MCP config should point to the stdio command and include the transport flag. For example, you can run the stdio transport locally and have your MCP framework communicate with the server through the standard input/output channel.

If you deploy as SSE, ensure the host/port combination matches your environment so that your client can subscribe to the think tool events and send think prompts within the thinking space.

Notes and capabilities

The think tool maintains a dedicated space for structured thinking during complex reasoning tasks, and it records a history of thoughts with timestamps for reference. It supports multiple transport mechanisms to fit different deployment models and workflows.

Available tools
