Overview
From the repository's own README, as read at the audited commit. Badges and raw HTML are left out.
Basecoat UI MCP
Offline Model Context Protocol server for Basecoat UI (shadcn/ui look without bundling or requiring React). Curated templates, macro layouts, rhythm tokens, and static validation for Astro, Next.js, HTML, and Tailwind CSS 4.
The server exposes a deterministic, offline registry for AI coding agents instead of requiring clients to scrape documentation. It runs over local stdio with zero runtime network requests, bounded < 2 KB responses, and bounded lexical/heuristic static source validation. The host application remains responsible for rendering, data access, authentication, sessions, credentials, OAuth, captcha, and other runtime behavior.
Install
Requires Node.js 22.14.0 or newer.
