WBSO MCP Server

Generic MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for WBSO R&D documentation and time tracking. Enables AI assistants like Claude Code to automatically detect WBSO-relevant work and log entries.

Features

• WBSO Detection - Analyze commits, code, and work descriptions for WBSO eligibility
• Work Classification - Classify work into technical challenge areas
• Automatic Logging - Log research and development entries to documentation
• Multi-year Support - Track hours across multiple WBSO project years
• Configurable - Define your own technical challenges and keywords

Installation

git clone https://github.com/rubenmaas/wbso-mcp-server.git
cd wbso-mcp-server
npm install

Configuration

The server loads project configuration from wbso.config.json in your WBSO documentation directory.

1. Copy the example config:

cp wbso.config.example.json /path/to/your/wbso-docs/wbso.config.json

2. Edit the config with your project details:

{
  "project": {
    "name": "Your Project Name",
    "projectNumber": "2025-1",
    "company": "Your Company B.V."
  },
  "years": {
    "2025": {
      "totalHours": 1000,
      "type": "New project"
    }
  },
  "technicalChallenges": [
    {
      "id": "challenge-1",
      "name": "Challenge Name",
      "keywords": ["keyword1", "keyword2"],
      "researchLogs": ["research-log"],
      "devLogs": ["dev-log"]
    }
  ]
}

Setup with Claude Code

Add to your Claude Code config (~/.claude/claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "wbso": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/wbso-mcp-server/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "WBSO_DIR": "/path/to/your/wbso-docs"
      }
    }
  }
}
