| The **PatternFly MCP** is a new tool designed to integrate our design guidelines, component documentation, and accessibility best practices directly into your AI-powered development environment. |

Seeing "new" in our docs immediately makes me think we're building in tech debt as this becomes dated.

Added a few small tweaks to help adopt this from our testing overview to our official docs.
One thing potentially missing here is that we're focusing on direct communication with the MCP in all examples - asking it a question and getting an answer to that question. I'd suspect the more common use case is having this work in the background as an always-on reference that's incorporated into existing workflows. For example, a designer vibe coding a design or interactive POC, or developer building/enhancing a product codebase, that automatically pulls in the correct components, props, accessibility considerations, etc. without them needing to specifically ask what that is but just for the agent to be aware of & use that information.
I originally tried to hint at this with the below statement, but not sure how to more clearly indicate the power of the MCP as the magic behind the curtain rather than just a chatbot-style interaction
Here are a few sample prompts to get you started, but the MCP tools are available for reference by your AI agent across all applicable use cases (code generation, design review, etc.):

I couldn't get the mcp set up in cursor myself until I added |
@nicolethoen it looks like I was hitting an error with @latest due to a caching issue, clearing my npm cache and trying again with @latest worked just fine 👍 |

This should be rebased given the nav redesign - and this page should go under |

@edonehoo following up on this, the tools in the MCP are being finalized in the next week or two and at that point we should be good to update the wording here and move forward - thanks for the patience! 😄 |

ty @cdcabrera ! I made those updates, but we can keep refining as needed |

The MCP tools are the primary thing that need to be updated

@cdcabrera ah, my bad! Could've sworn I made those changes, but I must have been half awake 😅 I think I just got to the remainder of what you commented -- lmk if I missed anything. I also added a few links to the repo to try and increase visibility to some of those docs, but we can back those out if you think it's not helpful or if the links are too likely to change |
