ProMCP is a lightweight semantic convention for designing tools in Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers. It imposes a three-verb contract on every tool exposed to an AI agent or orchestrator, making side effects, preconditions, and state observations explicit at the naming and response level — before any inference occurs.

Quick Install

Copy the config for your editor. Some servers may need additional setup — check the README.

Add to claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "promcp": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "promcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Or install with pip: pip install promcp
