Nexus-MCP — Enterprise Integration Server

Sharded Model Context Protocol server for enterprise systems.

Each shard is self-contained and can be toggled independently via feature flags.

Architecture: The Shard Contract

Every shard file exposes exactly one function:

def register(mcp: FastMCP) -> None:
    @mcp.tool()
    async def my_tool(...) -> ...:
        """Tool docstring visible to the LLM."""
        ...

The orchestrator (src/main.py) reads feature flags and calls register(mcp) for each enabled shard. No other file is changed to add or remove a shard.

Adding a new shard

1. Create src/shards/my_system.py following the template above.

2. Add the adapter to lib/ if needed.

3. Add one line to src/main.py:

   from shards import my_system
   if _enabled("MY_SYSTEM"):
       my_system.register(mcp)
   

4. Add ENABLE_MY_SYSTEM=true to .env.

Holding pattern

Leave a shard unregistered (or set flag to false) to hold it without breaking anything:

# 🔴 Planned — credentials not yet available
# if _enabled("MY_SYSTEM"):
#     my_system.register(mcp)

Local Use and Demo Guide

• See DEMO_GUIDE.md for the full permission matrix, credential configuration, and live-mode setup.
• All credentials live in nexus-mcp/.env — no need to put them in the Claude config.
