Tide Agent Pack

Overview

The Tide Agent Pack is an MCP server that gives AI coding assistants deep knowledge of TideCloak — auth, threshold cryptography, Forseti smart contracts, and server-side security patterns. Instead of guessing, your AI follows verified playbooks.

Quick Start

Pick the method that matches how you use AI tools.

Option 1: Remote (zero install)

Add to your MCP client config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tide": {
      "url": "https://mcp.tide.org/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, and any MCP client supporting remote servers.

Option 2: Claude Code

claude mcp add tide-pack -- npx -y @tideorg/mcp

Option 3: npm (local install)

Add .mcp.json to your project root:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tide-pack": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@tideorg/mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Option 4: Docker (self-hosted)

docker run -p 3000:3000 tideorg/mcp

Then point your MCP client at http://localhost:3000/mcp.

Option 5: VS Code Extension

Search "Tide Agent Pack" in the VS Code Extensions marketplace and install. Auto-connects to mcp.tide.org.

Option 6: Claude Code Plugin

/plugin marketplace add tide-foundation/tide-agent-pack
/plugin install tide-agent-pack@tide-agent-pack
