miyo-satori

miyo-satori is an MCP gateway server that routes tool calls to downstream MCP servers while capturing session context. It sits between Claude Code and your MCP servers, recording activity into a local SQLite database and providing tools for context retrieval, tool discovery, and schema inspection.

Quick start

No install needed — add the entry below to your MCP config and npx will fetch and run satori on demand.

MCP config

Add the following to your Claude Code settings (.claude/settings.json or ~/.claude/settings.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "satori": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "miyo-satori"]
    }
  }
}

The first launch downloads and caches the package; subsequent launches start instantly.

Local development

If you are working on satori itself, clone the repo and point the MCP config at the built file:

git clone https://github.com/MMoMM-org/miyo-satori.git
cd miyo-satori
npm install && npm run build

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "satori": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/miyo-satori/dist/src/index.js"]
    }
  }
}

Configuration: satori.toml

Satori merges configuration from three levels (global → project → repo). Create a satori.toml at the repo root (or ~/.satori/config.toml for global defaults). See satori.toml.example for all available fields with comments.

Every row Satori writes is tagged with a client (defaults to basename(repoRoot)) so that two repos sharing one storage location stay isolated. Override with --client <name> in the MCP args, or with [context] client = "..." in satori.toml. See docs/configuration.md and docs/concepts.md for the full tenant model.

Tools

Note: bash is a built-in code execution tool (not listed as a separate MCP tool — use directly as satori_exec("bash", ...))

Hooks setup

Satori ships Claude Code hooks that capture file activity, git operations, and other session events. The miyo-satori install-hooks subcommand registers them in your Claude Code settings.json for you.

For stable hook paths across satori updates, install satori globally so the install path does not move:

npm install -g miyo-satori
miyo-satori install-hooks

This registers hook entries in <cwd>/.claude/settings.json if it exists, otherwise ~/.claude/settings.json. Override the destination with --settings <path> or the SATORI_HOOKS_SETTINGS environment variable. Re-run the same command after npm install -g miyo-satori@latest to refresh the paths if the global location ever moves.

npx -y miyo-satori install-hooks also works but writes paths into the npx cache directory, which gets invalidated on version bumps. You'll see a warning when the install detects this.

Usage example

satori_find("read file")
  → returns: filesystem:read_file

satori_schema("filesystem", "read_file")
  → returns input schema with required "path" parameter

satori_exec("filesystem", "read_file", { "path": "/path/to/file" })
  → routes call to the filesystem server, captures output to context DB

Releasing a new version

Releases are automated via GitHub Actions. Pushing a v* tag triggers a workflow that runs typecheck, tests, build, and npm publish with provenance.

git checkout main && git pull
npm version patch        # or: minor / major
git push --follow-tags

That is the whole release flow. The workflow at .github/workflows/release.yml enforces that the tag matches package.json so the two cannot drift.

For pre-release tags (e.g. v0.2.0-beta.0) the workflow still publishes; consumers opt in via npx -y miyo-satori@beta.
