Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

UI encyclopedia for agents — search Elements and fetch component specs over MCP (OAuth).

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 in the cloud
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP
  • Category: Search & AI memory

Install

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

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 3 of 3 passed
  • Runs on the maker’s server: what you ask it goes through their server.
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

You need

Which app do you use?

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

Works in Claude on the web, desktop and mobile:

  1. Open Settings → Connectors
  2. Press Add custom connector
  3. Paste the address below and press Add
  4. If it asks you to sign in, sign in with the maker
SettingsConnectors1+ Add2https://…3
https://foundations.tensegrity.works/mcp

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add --transport http foundations-elements https://foundations.tensegrity.works/mcp

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "foundations-elements": {
      "url": "https://foundations.tensegrity.works/mcp"
    }
  }
}

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": {
    "foundations-elements": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://foundations.tensegrity.works/mcp"
    }
  }
}

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.

ChatGPT connects only to servers on the internet:

  1. Open ChatGPT on the web → Settings → Connectors (Apps)
  2. Press Create or Add (some plans need Developer mode under Advanced first)
  3. Paste the address below, give it a name and save
  4. If it asks you to sign in, sign in with the maker

Menu names can differ slightly by plan and over time.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

What it can do

The server asks you to sign in before it lists its tools.

Basic checksi

We check information anyone can see; we have not read the code. Checks that do not apply are left out of the count. · Checked Nov 6, 2026

  • ✓ Pass

    Maker matches the repo

    The registry name was verified against the domain tensegrity.works (the registry checks domain ownership)

  • … Not checked yet

    Still maintained

    We have not read this repo from GitHub yet

  • … Not checked yet

    Has a licence

    We have not read this repo from GitHub yet

  • ✓ Pass

    Endpoint responds

    Responded in 37 ms (HTTP 401)

  • ✓ Pass

    Sign-in with OAuth

    Declares OAuth sign-in, so your AI app can take you to log in

  • … Not checked yet

    No hidden instructions in tool descriptions

    Not checked yet; we read the tool list when we check the endpoint

Compared with others in Search & AI memoryi

  • More stars than 0% of the other 7243 servers in this category
  • Published to the registry more recently than 90% of the other 7243 servers in this category
  • Basic checks equal to or better than 100% of the other 7243 servers in this category

Compared with every active server in this category in the registry. Stars count only when the publisher owns the repo.

Common questions

Is Foundations Elements safe?

It passed 3 of 3 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 in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.0) reached the registry 3 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

In the same category: Context7, Codebase Memory, Exa

Foundations Elements MCP

Public install package for the Foundations Elements remote MCP server.

  • MCP URL: https://foundations.tensegrity.works/mcp
  • Product / waitlist: https://tensegrity.company/elements
  • Docs: https://foundations.tensegrity.works/docs
  • Privacy: https://tensegrity.company/privacy
  • Terms: https://tensegrity.company/terms
  • Support: support@tensegrity.company

This repository is the free plugin / registry metadata. The Worker implementation stays private. Access to catalog tools requires a Foundations account (OAuth via https://auth.tensegrity.works).

Publisher (marketplaces): GitHub org Tensegrity-Systems. Canonical repo: https://github.com/Tensegrity-Systems/foundations-elements-mcp (GitLab remains a staging mirror).

What you get

Cursor / Agent plugin that points at the remote MCP endpoint, plus server.json for the official MCP Registry.

Tools include search, kind lists, and spec fetch (elements_search, elements_list, elements_get, and related). See server instructions after connect.

Install

Cursor
  1. Install this plugin from the Marketplace when published, or load the repo as a local plugin.
  2. Complete OAuth when Cursor prompts for Foundations sign-in.
  3. Request access at https://tensegrity.company/elements if you do not have an account.

mcp.json already points at:

https://foundations.tensegrity.works/mcp
Claude

Add a custom connector with the same HTTPS URL, then sign in with OAuth. Directory listing will use this package’s branding and docs links.

VS Code / Copilot

Configure an HTTP MCP server with the URL above (after Official / GitHub MCP Registry publication).

Official MCP Registry

server.json declares a remote Streamable HTTP server. Preferred registry name (after domain ownership proof on tensegrity.works):

works.tensegrity/foundations-elements

Privacy

Foundations account sign-in and MCP usage are covered by the company privacy policy:

https://tensegrity.company/privacy

This install package does not collect data on its own; it only points clients at the remote MCP URL. Support: support@tensegrity.company.

License

MIT for this install package. Foundations Elements content and API remain proprietary; see https://tensegrity.company/terms and https://foundations.tensegrity.works/terms.

Channel note

Paid HTTP (x402) lookups use GET /mcp/elements/search. That is a separate agent-catalog path, not this IDE MCP plugin.
