First indexed and scored.

## MCP tools (14)

### `project_create` (~59 tokens)

Create project

Create a new ThreadMind project with a main thread

Input parameters:

- `mode` (string): Project mode: solo (default) or team
- `systemContext` (string): System context or instructions for this project
- `title` (string, required): Project title

### `project_list` (~14 tokens)

List projects

List all ThreadMind projects

### `project_switch` (~27 tokens)

Switch project

Switch to a different project

Input parameters:

- `projectId` (string, required): Project ID to switch to

### `thread_create` (~65 tokens)

Create thread

Create a new child thread branching from a parent thread, and make it the active thread. On a feature branch, the thread is linked to that branch.

Input parameters:

- `parentId` (string): Parent thread ID (defaults to current active thread)
- `title` (string, required): Thread title

### `thread_switch` (~64 tokens)

Switch thread

Switch this session to a different thread and return its assembled context (no need to call context_get afterwards)

Input parameters:

- `maxTokens` (integer): Token budget: the farthest ancestors are left out first to fit it
- `threadId` (string, required): Thread ID to switch to

### `thread_list` (~26 tokens)

Show thread tree

Display the thread tree for the active project, with each thread's status and linked branch

### `summary_update` (~160 tokens)

Update thread summary

Update the summary of a thread (markdown). With a section, adds to that section only (or replaces it with replaceSection); without one, replaces the whole summary, so keep what is still true.

Input parameters:

- `content` (string, required): The new summary, or the text to add to the section (markdown)
- `paths` (array): Files or directories this thread is about, used to flag the summary when they change
- `replaceSection` (boolean): Replace the section instead of adding to it (use it for state and next-steps)
- `section` (string): Only update this section: decisions, constraints, state, open-questions or next-steps
- `threadId` (string): Thread ID to update (defaults to active thread)

### `context_get` (~60 tokens)

Get thread context

Get the assembled context of the active thread: its summary plus the decisions and constraints of its ancestors. Call it once at the start of a session.

Input parameters:

- `maxTokens` (integer): Token budget: the farthest ancestors are left out first to fit it

### `thread_status` (~75 tokens)

Set thread status

Mark a thread as done or abandoned (or active again). The reason is added to the thread's decisions, so the outcome stays on record.

Input parameters:

- `reason` (string): Why the thread is done or abandoned
- `status` (string, required): New status
- `threadId` (string): Thread ID (defaults to active thread)

### `thread_merge` (~83 tokens)

Merge thread into parent

Fold a finished thread into its parent: replaces the parent's summary with parentSummary, marks the thread done and switches to the parent. Write parentSummary yourself, including the thread's conclusions.

Input parameters:

- `parentSummary` (string, required): The parent's new summary, including the merged thread's conclusions (markdown)
- `threadId` (string): Thread ID to merge (defaults to active thread)

### `thread_delete` (~28 tokens)

Delete thread

Delete a thread and all its descendants

Input parameters:

- `threadId` (string, required): Thread ID to delete

### `thread_rebase` (~58 tokens)

Move thread

Move a thread to a different parent. All descendants move with it. Similar to git rebase.

Input parameters:

- `newParentId` (string, required): ID of the new parent thread
- `threadId` (string, required): ID of the thread to move

### `threadmind_init` (~109 tokens)

Generate instruction files

Write ThreadMind usage instructions into the files AI agents read. Claude Code doesn't need them: it receives these instructions from this server.

Input parameters:

- `clients` (array): Files to generate: "agents" (AGENTS.md, read by Codex, Cursor, Copilot and others), "claude" (CLAUDE.md), "cursor" (.cursor/rules/threadmind.mdc), "generic" (.threadmind/instructions.md, to paste int…

### `stats_show` (~26 tokens)

Show statistics

Show the size of each summary and, with the Claude Code plugin, measured conversation sizes

io.github.mahmoud-nb/thread-mind is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.mahmoud-nb/thread-mind. Git-friendly memory for AI coding: a tree of thread summaries with inherited context. This page covers its npm package (thread-mind-mcp).

### Is the io.github.mahmoud-nb/thread-mind MCP server safe to use?

io.github.mahmoud-nb/thread-mind scores 81 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 16 October 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

### What tools does the io.github.mahmoud-nb/thread-mind MCP server expose?

io.github.mahmoud-nb/thread-mind exposes 14 tools: project_create, project_list, project_switch, thread_create, thread_switch, and 9 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 854 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the io.github.mahmoud-nb/thread-mind MCP server still maintained?

io.github.mahmoud-nb/thread-mind is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 16 October 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

### What licence is the io.github.mahmoud-nb/thread-mind MCP server under?

io.github.mahmoud-nb/thread-mind declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
