Editors and agents

VS Code

Install the Ontoly extension for Visual Studio Code to explore the graph inline, run impact analysis from the editor, and view evidence alongside your code. The extension communicates with the local MCP server.

Cursor

Cursor supports MCP servers natively. Add Ontoly as an MCP server in your Cursor settings to give the AI agent structured access to the Software Graph. The agent uses the same capabilities as the CLI — search, inspect, impact, evidence.

# In .cursor/mcp.json or cursor settings
# Add ontoly mcp as a stdio server
# The agent will discover capabilities automatically

Claude Code

Install Ontoly Agent Skills into Claude Code for graph-first workflows. Skills teach the agent to check the graph before searching source files. The agent uses MCP capabilities through the skills layer.

Other agents

Any coding agent that supports MCP can connect to the Ontoly server. Start ontoly mcp from the repository root and configure the agent to use it as a stdio MCP server. The server exposes structured capabilities with validated inputs and typed outputs.

• OpenAI Codex — connect via MCP stdio
• DeepSeek — supported as an AI provider for explanations
• Any MCP-compatible agent — stdio server protocol
• Custom agents — use the CLI or graph JSON directly
