Vertical Slices MCP

Using

The Vertical Slices MCP server leverages Stdio and is packaged as a container. In your tool, configure it using that.

Example: VSCode

In VSCode you would do this by adding a tool to your agent. This can done either by adding it to the global user settings or through an mcp.json file in the .vscode folder of your project.

For the global user settings, you simply do the following:

"mcp": {
    "servers": {
        "VerticalSlices": {
            "type": "stdio",
            "command": "docker",
            "args": [
                "run",
                "-i",
                "--rm",
                "cratis/vertical-slices-mcp"
            ]
        }
    }
}

For a local mcp.json file, its almost the same:

{
    "servers": {
        "VerticalSlices": {
            "type": "stdio",
            "command": "docker",
            "args": [
                "run",
                "-i",
                "--rm",
                "cratis/vertical-slices-mcp"
            ]
        }
    }
}

You can see this in action in the mcp.json in this repository.

Note: The cratis/vertical-slices-mcp is a multi CPU architecture image supporting both x64 and arm64 automatically.
