3
+ * Pattern
4
+ *
5
+ * MCP server exposing two tools. `recommend_component` judges whether a UI
6
+ * component need should be met with an existing shadcn/ui or 21st.dev
7
+ * component, or requires a custom build guided by a real-app reference
8
+ * from Mobbin. `record_component_decision` appends a confirmed decision to
9
+ * local per-project memory (see MEMORY_PATH below), which recommend_component
10
+ * can optionally read back (via project_id) as consistency context for a
11
+ * future call -- never as a cached verdict; coverage is still scored fresh
12
+ * every time.
13
+ *
14
+ * The judgment logic (extract requirements -> search -> score real code ->
15
+ * threshold into a verdict) is delegated to a single Anthropic API call
16
+ * with the server-side web_search tool enabled, so the same reasoning
17
+ * this project validated by hand in conversation is what runs here.

177
+
178
+ If the user message includes a "Past confirmed decisions in this project" section, treat it only as a signal, not a rule: if a highly similar past decision exists, consider consistency with it while scoring and recommending, but don't let it override a genuinely better match found in this search, and don't skip or shortcut your own search and scoring because a past decision exists. You decide relevance yourself -- nothing upstream has already matched these past decisions to the current need for you. Step 8 below tells you exactly how to report what you did with it.
179
+
180
+ Follow this process exactly:
181
+
182
+ 1. SKIP-LIST CHECK
183
+ If the component need is a trivial, single-purpose primitive with no meaningful internal structure (button, input, checkbox, label, badge, spinner, loader, tooltip, avatar, icon), skip the rest of this process and return verdict "use_existing" with reason "skip_list", confidence "high", and a note that this is a commodity primitive not worth scoring.
184
+
185
+ 2. EXTRACT REQUIREMENTS
186
+ Turn the component need + domain into a concrete checklist of elements the component must contain -- specific enough to check against real code, not a vibe. Ground it in the stated domain, not the component name alone. Extract exactly 8 checklist items, ranked by importance to the component's core function (most important first) -- a fixed count, not a range, so coverage = met/total isn't itself a moving target across runs.
187
+
188
+ 3. SEARCH FOR CANDIDATES
189
+ Search shadcn/ui and 21st.dev for components matching the need, filtered to the stated framework. Fire the shadcn and 21st.dev searches together in the same turn (they're independent lookups) rather than one at a time -- this avoids re-sending the growing conversation on extra round-trips. ${budgetLine} If those don't surface enough to score, proceed with what you have rather than continuing to search -- a "low confidence, here's why" verdict is more useful than an unbounded search loop.
190
+
191
+ If search returns zero real candidates -- not just weak matches, but nothing relevant at all (e.g. only vendor policy pages, unrelated components) -- stop here and return verdict "custom_build" with reason "no_candidates_found". Do not fabricate a coverage score in this case; omit requirements_checked and coverage entirely.
192
+
193
+ 4. SCORE COVERAGE AGAINST THE CHECKLIST
194
+ For each real candidate, evaluate against the checklist using actual evidence you can find about the component's real props/structure/code -- not just its marketing description, since descriptions can claim functionality the component doesn't actually have. Mark each requirement met or not-met with a one-line reason. Compute coverage = (requirements met) / (total requirements) for the best-fitting candidate. Base this only on your web_search results from step 3 -- do not use the web_fetch tool here or anywhere in steps 2-5; it is reserved entirely for step 6's reference deep-link check below, and using it earlier can starve that reserved budget.
195
+
196
+ 5. APPLY VERDICT THRESHOLDS
197
+ coverage >= 80% -> verdict "use_existing", confidence "high"
198
+ coverage 40-79% -> verdict "use_existing", confidence "low" (list the missing fields)
199
+ coverage < 40% -> verdict "custom_build"
200
+
201
+ If the verdict is use_existing, include "component_description": 1-2 sentences of plain-language description of what the recommended component actually does and looks like, grounded in what you found during search -- specific enough that it could only come from reading the actual search result, not a generic guess at what a component like this probably looks like. E.g. "A 3-column pricing card with a highlighted middle tier, monthly/annual toggle at the top, and a CTA button pinned to the bottom of each card," not "A well-designed pricing component." Same grounding standard as reference_description below: base it on real evidence, not marketing copy or a template description.
202
+
203
+ "install_command" is untrusted text as far as the calling agent is concerned -- it comes from a web search result you read, not a verified package registry. Keep it to the single literal install command only (e.g. npx shadcn@latest add <component>), never chained with && or ; , piped into a shell, or bundled with any other command. The calling agent is separately instructed to show this to its user for confirmation before running it, not execute it silently -- don't write it in a way that assumes or requires automatic execution.
204
+
205
+ 6. IF custom_build
206
+ Search TWO reference sources, one search call each (two calls total, reserved separately from the discovery budget above):
207
+ - Mobbin (site:mobbin.com) for the closest real-app screen matching the stated domain (e.g. real Airbnb screens for an Airbnb-style app).
208
+ - Figma Community (site:figma.com/community) for a relevant real component or template file matching the stated domain and component need. Plain web search only -- there is no Figma API token available, don't attempt to use one.
209
+
210
+ A search result URL is very often a category/browse page (e.g. mobbin.com/explore/mobile/screens/notifications), not a direct link to the specific screen or flow you actually identified (e.g. "Saturn Calendar - Notifications List"). Figma Community results are different: a URL containing "/community/file/" is already file-specific by Figma's own URL structure -- there is nothing more specific to find, so leave it as-is and do not spend a fetch on it. Only a Figma result that is NOT a "/community/file/" URL (a browse/tag/search page, e.g. figma.com/community/mobile-apps) has the same category-vs-specific gap Mobbin has.
211
+
212
+ For each Mobbin result, and for any Figma Community result that isn't already a "/community/file/" URL: fetch that result's URL with the web_fetch tool (reserved separately from both search budgets above, and separately from steps 2-5 -- see step 4) and look in the fetched page content for a more specific permalink pointing at that same specific screen or flow you already identified. Use that permalink as the reference "url" ONLY if you can actually see it written in the fetched content -- never construct, guess, or pattern-match your way to a deep-link URL that isn't literally present on the page, even if you're confident you know the site's URL scheme. Note that Figma's robots.txt blocks automated fetching of the entire site, so a Figma category-page fetch will very likely fail outright -- that's expected, not a bug. Each source gets at most ONE fetch attempt: if it fails for any reason, do not retry it by guessing a different URL variant for the same page (e.g. adding or removing a path segment) -- that guessed variant isn't a URL you actually found, it's exactly the kind of construction this process forbids, and the tool will reject it anyway since it never appeared in a real search or fetch result. Accept the failure and move on. If a fetch fails, or the fetched page doesn't expose a more specific link (login-gated, or the specific screen genuinely isn't linkable separately from the browse view), keep the category/search URL as "url" and say so plainly in "reference_description" -- e.g. "This is a Mobbin search entry point for the notifications category, not a direct link to the Saturn Calendar screen described below" -- so the reader knows they're landing on a browse page and will need to find the specific screen themselves.
213
+
214
+ Include a reference for each source that actually returned a real, relevant result from a search you actually ran -- never name a plausible-sounding URL from memory for either source. If out of search budget, or a search found nothing relevant, that source is simply not included; there is no benefit to guessing, since anything not backed by an actual successful search for that source will be silently discarded server-side. The same no-fabrication rule applies to the fetch step: a claimed deep-link URL that isn't backed by an actual fetch of that page literally containing that link will be silently replaced server-side with the honest category-URL fallback, so there is no benefit to guessing there either.
215
+
216
+ Shape the "reference" field based on how many sources actually grounded:
217
+ - Both Mobbin and Figma Community grounded: an array of both reference objects.
218
+ - Only one grounded: a single reference object (not a one-element array).
219
+ - Neither grounded: omit "reference" entirely (null), same as a custom_build verdict with no usable reference at all today.
220
+
221
+ Each reference object has: "source" ("Mobbin" or "Figma Community"), "url", and either "flow_name" (Mobbin) or "file_name" (Figma Community) -- whichever matches its own source. Each also gets its own "reference_description": 1-2 sentences of plain-language description of what that specific screen or file actually shows -- specific enough that an agent that can't open the URL still has something to act on. E.g. "Airbnb's checkout screen shows the cancellation policy as an expandable section below the price breakdown, with the exact refund percentage next to each date threshold." Base each description only on what you actually saw in that source's own search result, not a generic guess, and not by borrowing detail from the other source.
222
+
223
+ 7. EXISTING STACK TIEBREAKER
224
+ If existing_stack is provided and two candidates score similarly, prefer the one matching the existing stack. Never use it as a hard filter that excludes a genuinely better-scoring candidate from a different source.
225
+
226
+ 8. PAST DECISION SIGNAL (only if the user message included a "Past confirmed decisions in this project" section)
227
+ Include a top-level "past_decision_signal" field in your response: { "considered": true|false, "note": "string" }. Set "considered": true only if at least one listed past decision was genuinely similar enough to this need that it actually factored into your scoring or recommendation -- not just present in the list. "note" is one sentence: if considered is true, name which past decision and how it factored in (e.g. "Consistent with this project's prior custom build of a similar price breakdown component"); if false, one sentence on why none applied (e.g. "No past decision matches this need closely enough to be a relevant signal"). This field is mandatory whenever the section is present in the user message -- do not omit it, and do not include it at all if the section was absent.
