pnpm run start
# Run tests
pnpm run test
🛠️ Usage
1. MCP Integration
ControlAI MCP implements the Model Context Protocol, making it compatible with VS Code and other MCP-enabled tools.
VS Code Configuration
Add to your VS Code settings or MCP configuration:
{
"mcps": {
"controlai": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["path/to/controlai-mcp/dist/server.js"],
"env": {
"AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT": "your-endpoint",
"AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY": "your-key"
}
}
}
}
2. Available Tools
📝 create_project
Create a new project with intelligent analysis.
{
"name": "E-commerce Website",
"description": "Build a modern e-commerce platform with React, Node.js, and MongoDB",
"priority": "high",
"tags": ["web", "ecommerce", "fullstack"]
}
🔍 analyze_plan
Break down project plans into actionable tasks using AI.
{
"projectId": "project-uuid",
"plan": "Create a user authentication system with login, registration, password reset, and role-based access control"
}
🤖 register_agent
Register AI agents with specific capabilities.
{
"name": "Senior Developer Agent",
"type": "coding_agent",
"capabilities": ["programming", "typescript", "react", "testing"],
"workspaceId": "workspace-1",
"maxConcurrentTasks": 3
}
📋 assign_task
Intelligently assign tasks to the most suitable agents.
{
"taskId": "task-uuid",
"agentId": "agent-uuid" // Optional - AI will suggest if omitted
}
📊 get_dashboard_data
Retrieve real-time dashboard metrics and insights.
{
"workspaceId": "workspace-1"
}
3. WebSocket Real-Time Updates
Connect to the WebSocket server for live updates:
const ws = new WebSocket('ws://localhost:7001');
ws.on('message', (data) => {
const message = JSON.parse(data);
console.log(`Event: ${message.type}`, message.payload);
});
Event Types:
project_created
- New project addedtask_assigned
- Task assigned to agenttask_status_updated
- Task progress updateagent_registered
- New agent joinedplan_analyzed
- Project plan broken downconflict_detected
- Resource conflict identified

Data Flow
- Project Creation: User creates project → AI analyzes → Tasks generated
- Task Assignment: Task created → AI evaluates agents → Best match assigned
- Status Updates: Agent reports progress → Database updated → WebSocket broadcast
- Conflict Resolution: System detects conflicts → AI suggests solutions → Auto-resolve
