Sequential Thinking Claude Code
sequential-thinking-claude-code
An enhanced version of the original mcp-sequentialthinking-tools by Scott Spence, which was adapted from the MCP Sequential Thinking Server.
This enhanced edition transforms the original framework into an intelligent tool recommendation system with:
- 26 pre-configured tools including all Claude Code tools
- Automatic tool recommendations based on thought content
- Deep integration with Basic Memory MCP for knowledge management
- Pattern-based intelligence that suggests the right tools at the right time
- Context-aware caching with intelligent tool result management
- Performance metrics tracking for optimization insights
- 100% test coverage with comprehensive validation

Thoughts
I think the biggest benefit is the improved utilization of branching, revisiting, and thought revision. Thoughts are much more dynamic and intentional, spread out throughout the conversation at the correct time.
Of course, Claude Code already does a good job of tool function use, but with the integration of sequential thinking with explicit function calls for those tools makes everything more seamless and responses are significantly better.
There is also caching for tools and thoughts, session continuation and context management, and a bunch of other improvements.
I want to create separate config files for the most popular MCP tools with instructions for users on how to add the specific tool calls of the MCP in the config for ST. It's just an array so it would be simple, just have to identify all the MCPs and their tools, or just the MCPs themselves because agents will know what to do with them once recommended. I found the specific function/tool tools in the recommendation improves the responses and creates more of a seamless flow.
I would do this for other agents as well like Codex, Cline, Augment, etc.. I actually have a copy modified for Augment Code, going to make a branch for that soon.
