• Introduces a new synthesize slash-command spec for turning completed requirements into implementation plans
• Updates package metadata, installation docs, and ignores non-dist files for npm

• The documented timestamp format (YYYY-MM-DD_HH-MM-SS_*) doesn't match createTimestampFolder output (YYYY-MM-DD-HHMM). Consider updating the docs or the code to align the timestamp conventions.

   - Look for subdirectories with timestamp format (YYYY-MM-DD_HH-MM-SS_*)

README.md:29

• The clone URL in the README points to ulasbilgen but package.json and other references use amittell. Ensure the repository URL is correct and consistent.

• This PR adds extensive new server logic without accompanying tests. Consider adding unit or integration tests for core workflows (requirements-start, requirements-status, requirements-end, etc.).

CLAUDE.md:44

• The docs list six MCP tools but the code also registers requirements-settings. Update CLAUDE.md to include this new tool so documentation stays in sync with the code.

• [nitpick] The inline expertQuestions array is duplicated in the discovery/detail logic. Extract this into a shared constant or generator function to avoid duplication and simplify future updates.

looks like a great addition. How are you using the MCP server day-to-day? The slash commands are for humans, how is claude using the mcp server in your case? @amittell @adamflagg is the idea with the mcp tools, that you can no just ask claude: "what is the status of requirements"?

[amittell]

@dwenaus The MCP path here is meant for tool-aware clients (Claude Desktop or any other MCP-compatible client). Instead of a human typing slash commands, Claude can call the same workflow tools under the hood — requirements-start, requirements-status, requirements-current, requirements-end, requirements-list, requirements-remind, plus requirements-settings.

So yes: in that setup, a prompt like “what is the status of the requirements session?” should naturally map to requirements-status / requirements-current. The slash commands stay as the human-facing path inside Claude Code; the MCP server exposes the same flow as tools.
