Advanced Features

Take BraceKit to the next level with these power user features.

Feature Overview

MCP (Model Context Protocol)

MCP is a protocol for connecting external tools to AI assistants. With MCP servers, BraceKit can:

• Search the web (Google, Brave Search)
• Read and write files
• Query databases
• Access APIs
• And much more

Quick Setup

1. Create a .mcp.json file in your project
2. Add server configurations
3. BraceKit automatically connects

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "filesystem": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "./"]
    }
  }
}

Memory System

The memory system lets BraceKit remember information across conversations:

• Project context
• Goals and interests

How it Works

1. Enable memory in Settings
2. Chat normally
3. BraceKit extracts important information
4. Future conversations include relevant memories

When it Triggers

• At 90% of context window (configurable)
• Or manually with /compact command
