🚀 Branch Thinking

A MCP server that implements branch-based thinking navigation and supports:

• Multiple thought branches
• Branch navigation (list, focus, history)
• Cross-references between related ideas
• Automatic generation of insights from key points
• Branch priority tracking

This project is based on the following tool: https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/servers/tree/main/src/sequentialthinking

✨ Features

• Branch Management: Create and navigate between different trains of thought.
• Cross-references: Link related ideas through typed relationships.
• Insight Generation: Automatically generate insights from key points in ideas.
• Priority Tracking: Track branch priorities based on confidence and connections.

💻 Usage Examples

Basic Usage

Here are some commands you can use:

• list: Display all branches and their current status.
• focus [branchId]: Switch to a specific branch.
• history [branchId?]: Show the history of ideas in a branch.

📦 Installation

Place this project in your custom MCP tool directory.

npm install
npm run build 

Add the following to your claude_desktop_config.json:

"branch-thinking": {
  "command": "node",
  "args": [
    "/your-custom-mcp-dir-here/branch-thinking/dist/index.js"
  ]
}

💡 Usage Tip

Claude usually doesn't use tools proactively unless explicitly prompted.

If you want to use this tool without being prompted, add the following to your Claude profile settings (or system prompt):

If I ask you to "think step by step", "think before responding", or "use chain thinking", it means to use the Branch Thinking tool. If you think your response would benefit from multiple steps, don't hesitate to use the Branch Thinking tool on your own.

📚 Documentation

I can't pretend that most of the code was written by me. Most of the code was generated by Claude. I did the concept, testing, fixing, and implementation myself.
