A TypeScript Model Context Protocol (MCP) server to allow LLMs to programmatically construct mind maps to explore an idea space, with enforced "metacognitive" self-reflection. That is what the structured thinking mcp server brings to an AI assistant: the same capability, reachable through the Model Context Protocol rather than a separate app or dashboard.
Set the tool configuration in Claude Desktop, Cursor, or another MCP client as follows:
Setup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client.
The server publishes 5 tools. What each one is for:
capture_thought — Create a thought in the thought history, with metadata about the thought's type, quality, content, and relationships to other thoughtsrevise_thought — Revise a thought in the thought history, with metadata about the thought's type, quality, content, and relationships to other thoughtsretrieve_relevant_thoughts — Retrieve thoughts from long-term storage that share tags with the specified thoughtget_thinking_summary — Generate a comprehensive summary of the entire thinking processclear_thinking_history — The clear_thinking_history tool exposed by this serverPlenty of file and storage access servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. Structured Thinking's toolset — capture_thought, revise_thought, retrieve_relevant_thoughts and 2 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by Promptly-Technologies-LLC; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
| capture_thought | Create a thought in the thought history, with metadata about the thought's type, quality, content, and relationships to other thoughts. |
| revise_thought | Revise a thought in the thought history, with metadata about the thought's type, quality, content, and relationships to other thoughts. |
| retrieve_relevant_thoughts | Retrieve thoughts from long-term storage that share tags with the specified thought. |

| clear_thinking_history | The clear_thinking_history tool exposed by this server. |
Scoped local file access — read, write, search and reorganise files in directories you explicitly allow.
Search and read your Drive — Docs, Sheets and files become context your assistant can actually use.
Query, modify and analyse local SQLite databases in conversation — the fastest way to chat with a data file.
Build a programmable telecommunications stack for connecting telephony services with the Internet via a cloud-based utility.
Chat with your second brain — search, read and write vault notes through the Local REST API.
Connects AI models to an Obsidian knowledge base for direct access and manipulation of notes and folders.
