Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Build HOI4 mods: focus trees, events, decisions, worlds, GUI previews, docs and AI balance.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Other

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hoi4-agent-tools": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "hoi4-agent-tools"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add hoi4-agent-tools -- npx -y hoi4-agent-tools

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hoi4-agent-tools": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "hoi4-agent-tools"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "hoi4-agent-tools": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "hoi4-agent-tools"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Common questions

Is HOI4 Agent Tools safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (4.11.0) reached the registry yesterday.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

HOI4 Agent Tools

An MCP server that helps coding agents build and edit Hearts of Iron IV mods.

Quick start · npm · Changelog · Contributing · Security

Make focus trees, events and decisions. Edit maps and generate a new world. Preview windows, trees and maps, find the right rule in the docs, fix broken script and balance AI choices.

What it does

Your agent can build and edit focus trees, events, decisions and maps, and generate a new world.

For a new map, give it a cleaned local reference image and preview the interpreted geography before writing. The map workflow creates provinces, states, terrain, cities, countries, supply and a provisional starting scenario. Reviewed names and masks refine ambiguous artwork; offline validation is separate from native campaign acceptance. It previews focus trees, technology folders, windows and maps, finds the right rule in the game's documentation, fixes broken script and tunes AI choices. You describe what you want; the agent picks the right tools.

Quick start

  1. Install Node.js 22 (22.19 or later) or 24, and keep Hearts of Iron IV installed for vanilla files, artwork and fonts.
  2. Install the server:
   npm install --global hoi4-agent-tools
  1. Print the client configuration:
   hoi4-agent-tools-setup --print-client-config

Paste the globalInstall block into a JSON client such as Claude Code, Claude Desktop or Cursor, or the codexTomlGlobal block into Codex's config.toml.

  1. Open your mod folder as the agent's workspace and tell it what you want to build or fix.

The setup guide covers several mods, explicit game paths, local wiki snapshots and troubleshooting with --discover and --diagnose.

Watch the Agent Tools demo or use HOI4 Mod Setup to install and connect the server for your mod. Part of the HOI4 modding toolkit with Agentic HOI4 Modding (skills and instructions for your agent) and HOI4 Live Tools (testing in the running game).

Examples

Each pair shows a capture from the game next to the server's preview of the same source.

In gameServer preview

See more in the examples gallery.

Tools

The server gives your agent previews, documentation, script analysis and editing tools. The agent combines them with its file editor to build events and decisions, repair scripts and adjust AI weights. The tool reference lists exact names, arguments and results for integrations.

FAQ

Where do edits go? Changes are written to your mod folder; use Git to review or undo them.

Does it run the game? No. Previews come from mod source; test gameplay in HOI4 to see live clicks, AI choices and timing.

Configuration

Started inside a mod folder, the server needs no configuration file. hoi4-agent-tools-setup --init writes one when you work on several mods or the game is not found automatically. For remote or shared use, hoi4-agent-tools-http serves the same tools over HTTP with tokens or OAuth. See the configuration reference and the HTTP guide.
