59
- 3. Automatically configure Claude Code to use Joan MCP
60
-
61
- After setup, restart Claude Code and you're ready to go!
62
-
63
- ## Using Joan MCP in Other Projects
64
-
65
- Once you've completed the initial setup above, you can use Joan MCP from **any project repository**. This lets you create tasks, track progress, and manage your work directly while coding on other projects.
66
-
67
- ### Option A: Global Configuration (Recommended)
52
+ After setup, **restart Claude Code** and you're ready to go!
68
53
 
69
- Add Joan MCP to your global Claude Code settings so it's available in all projects:
70
-
71
- **Location:** `~/.claude/settings.json`
72
-
73
- ```json
74
- {
75
- "mcpServers": {
76
- "joan": {
77
- "command": "npx",
78
- "args": ["tsx", "/Users/YOUR_USERNAME/Joan/mcp-server/src/cli.ts", "serve"]
79
- }
80
- }
81
- }
82
- ```
54
+ ## Using Joan MCP in Any Project
83
55
 
84
- Replace `/Users/YOUR_USERNAME/Joan` with the actual path to your Joan repository.
56
+ Once you run `npx @pollychrome/joan-mcp init`, Joan is automatically configured globally. It works in **any project** without additional setup.
85
57
 
86
- ### Option B: Per-Project Configuration
58
+ ### Example Prompts
87
59
 
88
- Add Joan MCP to a specific project by creating/editing `.claude/settings.json` in that project's root:
60
+ While working on any codebase, you can say:
89
61
 
90
- ```json
91
- {
92
- "mcpServers": {
93
- "joan": {
94
- "command": "npx",
95
- "args": ["tsx", "/Users/YOUR_USERNAME/Joan/mcp-server/src/cli.ts", "serve"]
96
- }
97
- }
98
- }
99
62
  ```
63
+ "Create a task in Joan for the bug I just found"
100
64
 
101
- ### Verifying the Connection
102
-
103
- After configuring, restart Claude Code and verify Joan MCP is connected:
65
+ "Show me my Joan projects"
104
66
 
105
- 1. Start Claude Code in your other project
106
- 2. Ask: "Show me my Joan projects"
107
- 3. If connected, you'll see your projects list
67
+ "Add a note in Joan about this architecture decision"
108
68
 
109
- ### Example Workflows
69
+ "Mark my 'Review PR #42' task as completed"
110
70
 
111
- **While working on another project, you can:**
71
+ "What tasks do I have in my Backend project?"
112
72
 
73
+ "Create a milestone called 'v2.0 Release' in Joan"
113
74
  ```
114
- "Create a task in my Joan project for the bug I just found in this codebase"
115
75
 
116
- "Add a note in Joan about the architecture decisions I'm making here"
76
+ ### How It Works
117
77
 
118
- "What tasks do I have assigned in my Backend Refactor project?"
119
-
120
- "Mark my 'Review PR #42' task as completed in Joan"
121
-
122
- "Create a milestone in Joan called 'v2.0 Release' for my current sprint"
123
- ```
124
-
125
- ### How It Works (Self-Describing Server)
126
-
127
- Joan MCP uses the MCP protocol's `instructions` field to automatically describe itself to AI assistants. When Claude Code connects to the Joan MCP server, it receives:
128
-
129
- - A description of what Joan is
78
+ Joan MCP is **self-describing** - it automatically tells Claude Code:
79
+ - What Joan is and what it does
130
80
  - All available tools and their parameters
131
- - All available resources and their URIs
132
- - Usage guidelines and valid field values
133
-
134
- **This means you don't need to manually document Joan in your CLAUDE.md files** - the server tells Claude Code everything it needs to know during initialization.
81
+ - All available resources and URIs
82
+ - Valid field values (status, priority, etc.)
135
83
 
136
- ### Troubleshooting Other-Project Setup
84
+ No manual documentation needed in your CLAUDE.md files.
137
85
 
138
- **Joan MCP not appearing:**
139
- 1. Ensure the path to Joan repository is absolute (starts with `/`)
140
- 2. Verify Joan's mcp-server has dependencies installed: `cd /path/to/Joan/mcp-server && npm install`
141
- 3. Restart Claude Code completely (not just the conversation)
86
+ ### Manual Configuration (Optional)
142
87
 
143
- **Authentication errors:**
144
- - Credentials are stored globally at `~/.joan-mcp/credentials.json`
145
- - Re-authenticate from any directory: `cd /path/to/Joan/mcp-server && npx tsx src/cli.ts login`
146
-
147
- ## Manual Setup
148
-
149
- If you prefer to set up manually, follow these steps:
150
-
151
- ### Step 1: Authenticate
152
-
153
- ```bash
154
- # From source
155
- npx tsx src/cli.ts login
156
-
157
- # Or after global install
158
- joan-mcp login
159
- ```
160
-
161
- ### Step 2: Configure Claude Code
162
-
163
- Add the Joan MCP server to your Claude Code configuration:
164
-
165
- **For development (from source):**
166
-
167
- Add to `~/.config/claude-code/settings.json` or your project's `.claude/settings.json`:
88
+ The `init` command configures this automatically, but if needed, add to `~/.claude/settings.json`:
168
89
 
169
90
  ```json
170
91
  {
171
92
  "mcpServers": {
172
93
  "joan": {
173
94
  "command": "npx",
174
- "args": ["tsx", "/path/to/Joan/mcp-server/src/cli.ts", "serve"]
95
+ "args": ["@pollychrome/joan-mcp", "serve"]
175
96
  }
176
97
  }
177
98
  }
178
99
  ```
179
100
 
180
- **After global install:**
181
-
182
- ```json
183
- {
184
- "mcpServers": {
185
- "joan": {
186
- "command": "joan-mcp",
187
- "args": ["serve"]
188
- }
189
- }
190
- }
191
- ```
101
+ ### Troubleshooting
192
102
 
193
- ### Alternative: Environment Variable
194
-
195
- Instead of using `joan-mcp login`, you can set the token directly:
196
-
197
- ```json
198
- {
199
- "mcpServers": {
200
- "joan": {
201
- "command": "joan-mcp",
202
- "args": ["serve"],
203
- "env": {
204
- "JOAN_AUTH_TOKEN": "your-jwt-token-here"
205
- }
206
- }
207
- }
208
- }
209
- ```
103
+ **Joan MCP not working:**
104
+ 1. Restart Claude Code completely
105
+ 2. Run `npx @pollychrome/joan-mcp status` to check auth
106
+ 3. Run `npx @pollychrome/joan-mcp login` to re-authenticate
