🛠️ Installation

Prerequisites

• Rust 1.70 or later
• Cargo (Rust package manager)

Quick Start

1. Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/your-org/ultrafast-mcp-sequential-thinking.git
cd ultrafast-mcp-sequential-thinking

2. Build the Project

cargo build --release

3. Run the Server

# STDIO transport (default)
cargo run --bin sequential-thinking-server

# HTTP transport
cargo run --bin sequential-thinking-server -- --transport http --port 8080

4. Run the Client

# Connect to server
cargo run --bin sequential-thinking-client -- --server stdio://

# Connect to HTTP server
cargo run --bin sequential-thinking-client -- --server http://localhost:8080

5. Use MCP Inspector (Optional)

# Start HTTP server for Inspector
cargo run --bin sequential-thinking-server -- --transport http --port 8080

# Open MCP Inspector and load mcp-inspector-config.json
# Choose "sequential-thinking-server-http" for HTTP transport

Quick Start with Docker

1. Use the Official Docker Image

# Pull the latest image from Docker Hub
docker pull techgopal/ultrafast-mcp-sequential-thinking:latest

# Run HTTP server on port 8080
docker run --rm -p 8080:8080 techgopal/ultrafast-mcp-sequential-thinking:latest

# Run with custom configuration
docker run --rm -p 8080:8080 -e MAX_THOUGHTS=200 techgopal/ultrafast-mcp-sequential-thinking:latest

# Run in detached mode
docker run -d --name thinking-server -p 8080:8080 techgopal/ultrafast-mcp-sequential-thinking:latest

2. (Optional) Build the Docker Image Locally

# Build the server image locally (if you want to make changes)
docker build -t sequential-thinking-server .

# Verify the image was created
docker images | grep sequential-thinking-server

3. Connect Client to Docker Server

# Connect to HTTP server running in Docker
cargo run --bin sequential-thinking-client -- --server http://localhost:8080

# Or use curl to test the server
curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"initialize","params":{"protocolVersion":"2025-06-18"},"id":1}'

Example MCP Inspector Docker Configuration

If you want to use MCP Inspector or other tools to launch the server in a Docker container with advanced options (such as analytics and increased max thoughts), use the following configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sequential-thinking": {
      "command": "docker",
      "args": [
        "run",
        "--rm",
        "-i",
        "techgopal/ultrafast-mcp-sequential-thinking:latest",
        "/usr/local/bin/sequential-thinking-server",
        "--transport",
        "stdio",
        "--max-thoughts",
        "200",
        "--enable-analytics"
      ],
      "env": {}
    }
  }
}

This configuration will start the server in a Docker container using STDIO transport, with analytics enabled and a higher max thoughts limit. Adjust the arguments as needed for your use case.

4. Docker Compose (Optional)

# Create docker-compose.yml for easy deployment
cat > docker-compose.yml ,
    pub revises_thought: Option,
    pub branch_from_thought: Option,
    pub branch_id: Option,
    pub needs_more_thoughts: Option,
}

ThinkingSession

pub struct ThinkingSession {
    pub session_id: String,
    pub title: String,
    pub thoughts: Vec,
    pub branches: HashMap>,
    pub metadata: SessionMetadata,
}
