Shannon MCP - Claude Code MCP Server
A comprehensive Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation for Claude Code, built using an innovative multi-agent collaborative system.
Overview
Shannon MCP is a Python-based MCP server that provides programmatic management of Claude Code CLI operations. This project replicates and extends the functionality found in the Claude Desktop application, exposing all Claude Code interactions through standardized MCP tools.
Multi-Agent Architecture
This project employs a revolutionary approach: 26 specialized AI agents working collaboratively to implement the entire MCP server specification. Each agent has deep expertise in specific domains and works together through shared memory and orchestration systems.

How It Works
1. Orchestration Layer
The orchestration layer coordinates all agent activities through specialized commands:
/mcp-build-orchestrator
: Master command that distributes tasks to agents/mcp-agent-progress
: Tracks real-time progress of all agents/mcp-shared-memory
: Enables knowledge sharing between agents/mcp-agent-context
: Manages persistent context for each agent
2. Agent Collaboration
Agents collaborate through several mechanisms:
