What is the Archsteer MCP Server?

Architecture governance for AI agents: query the live model, get target patterns, check files.

What it actually does

AI agents now write code faster than any architect can review, document, or govern it. Docs rot instantly, the real architecture is invisible, structural decisions get made silently, and intended architecture drifts with every edit. ArchSteer is the always-current architecture system of record + governance plane: it derives the real architecture from code, keeps living docs and ADRs auto-built, surfaces every major decision for the architect to ratify, enforces declared intent as code-level fitness functions, and steers AI agents to conform instead of replicating local slop.

Recorded tools

Check the linked publisher documentation and your connected client's tool list. Names and availability can vary with the server version and account permissions.

Tool	What it does
current_architecture	component/layer counts, conformance/drift, the declared target.
get_target_pattern	the invariants that apply to a file, before you write to it.
check_file	whether a file you just edited conforms, without waiting for CI.
java-spring	pom.xml / build.gradle
salesforce	sfdx-project.json / force-app
python-service	pyproject.toml / requirements.txt
nextjs-app-router	package.json has next, an app/ dir, no express
express-to-next	package.json (fallback, or express present)
