Brandsystem MCP provides a comprehensive suite of brand management tools enabling AI agents to follow brand guidelines. It supports extracting brand elements from websites, Figma, etc., generates design tokens and brand runtime, and provides checking, auditing, and compliance capabilities. It is particularly suitable for design and development teams aiming to integrate brand systems into AI workflows. However, be aware that extraction accuracy depends on algorithms and may require human intervention, and there is some configuration complexity.

ANTHROPIC_API_KEY
Only needed to run the repo's model-dependent evaluation tier (first-tool selection); obtain from the Anthropic console. Not required for normal server use.
BRANDSYSTEM_PROFILE
Optional; set to full to register all tools instead of the default 12-tool Core profile. Can also be passed as --profile=full.
BRANDCODE_MCP_SMOKE_URL
Maintainer-only target URL for the hosted deployment smoke harness (npm run smoke:hosted-mcp); not needed by end users.

Shown for Claude Desktop. Other clients may use a different file or key (VS Code uses "servers") — the configurator below converts it.
{
"servers": {
"brandsystem": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@brandsystem/mcp"
]
}
}
}
Goes in your project's .vscode/mcp.json (VS Code uses a "servers" key).
claude mcp add brandsystem -- npx -y @brandsystem/mcp
Run it in a terminal; replace any <…> placeholders with your own values first.
After adding npx -y @brandsystem/mcp to your client config, brand_start and brand_runtime should appear in the tool list; calling brand_status without a .brand/ directory should return the getting-started guide, proving the connection works.
Once connected, you can ask your AI assistant things like:

Brandsystem MCP server is designed to convert existing brand materials, such as websites, PDFs, Figma files, into a portable .brand runtime that AI agents can understand and use. It provides a complete suite of tools covering the four stages of brand adoption: Core Identity, Visual Identity, Messaging, and Content Strategy. It generates structured brand data including design tokens, governance rules, provenance, and compliance checks, enabling AI to produce on-brand content consistently. The server is local-first, no account required by default, runs over stdio, and is compatible with multiple development tools.
