# Magic Patterns MCP Server
### ⚠️ Please use the official Magic Patterns MCP here: [Magic Patterns MCP](https://www.magicpatterns.com/docs/documentation/features/mcp-server/overview) ⚠️
This is original inspiration behind the official MCP. We would recommend everyone to use the official MCP which does not require an API key.
---
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides tools for creating UI designs and components using the Magic Patterns API. This server enables AI assistants to generate React components, HTML/CSS layouts, and complete web interfaces through natural language prompts.
## Features
- **Create Design Tool**: Generate UI components and layouts from text descriptions
- **Multiple Frameworks**: Support for React, HTML/Tailwind, ShadCN, Chakra UI, and Mantine
- **Quality Modes**: Choose between 'fast' for quick iterations or 'best' for high-quality results
- **Flexible Input**: Accept design descriptions, existing code to modify, or any design request
- **Complete Output**: Get source files, compiled assets, preview URLs, and editor links
## Installation & Usage
### With Bun (Recommended)
```bash
# Run directly from source
bun run src/main.ts
# Build and run binary
bun run build
./dist/magic-patterns-mcp
```
### With Docker
```bash
# Build the image
docker build -t magic-patterns-mcp .
# Run the server
docker run --rm -i magic-patterns-mcp
```
### With NPM (when published)
```bash
npx magic-patterns-mcp
```
## Claude Desktop Integration
Add this MCP server to your Claude Desktop configuration:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"magic-patterns-mcp": {
"command": "bun",
"args": ["run", "/path/to/magic-patterns-mcp/src/main.ts"],
"env": {
"MAGIC_PATTERNS_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
}
}
}
}
```
Or if using the binary:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"magic-patterns-mcp": {
"command": "/path/to/magic-patterns-mcp/dist/magic-patterns-mcp",
"env": {
"MAGIC_PATTERNS_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
}
}
}
}
```
## Environment Variables
- `MAGIC_PATTERNS_API_KEY`: Your Magic Patterns API key (required)
## Available Tools
### create_design
Creates a new design pattern using the Magic Patterns API.
**Parameters:**
- `prompt` (required): The design request - can be a description, existing React code to modify, or any design request
- `mode` (optional):
- `"best"` (default): Higher quality results, recommended for most use cases
- `"fast"`: Quick generation for simple fixes or time-sensitive requests
- `presetId` (optional): Framework/styling preset (default: "html-tailwind")
- `"html-tailwind"`: HTML with Tailwind CSS
- `"shadcn-tailwind"`: ShadCN components with Tailwind
- `"chakraUi-inline"`: Chakra UI components
- `"mantine-inline"`: Mantine components
**Returns:**
- Design ID and URLs (editor, preview)
- Source files (React/HTML/CSS)
- Compiled assets
- Chat conversation history
## Development
### Prerequisites
- [Bun](https://bun.sh/) runtime
- Magic Patterns API key
### Setup
