Known Issues

Repository URL Migration (2026-02-17)

CloneVendorRepos.sh has been updated with official repository URLs. Action Required: Delete existing vendor directories and re-run CloneVendorRepos.sh to get correct source code.

rm -rf vendor/*
./scripts/CloneVendorRepos.sh

Dockerfiles Requiring Updates

Several Dockerfiles may need updates to work with the new official repositories:

  • freecad-mcp: Verify Dockerfile works with neka-nat/freecad-mcp
  • gimp-mcp: Verify Dockerfile works with maorcc/gimp-mcp
  • discourse-mcp: May need new Dockerfile for official discourse/discourse-mcp
  • ghost-mcp: Verify Dockerfile works with MFYDev/ghost-mcp
  • All other updated repositories should be verified after re-cloning

reverse-engineering-assistant (New)

Dockerfile created but requires testing:

  • Needs Ghidra 12.0+ and Java 21
  • Runs in headless mode
  • May need adjustments based on actual build process

WordPress MCP Configuration (2026-02-17)

The WordPress MCP Adapter (@wordpress/mcp-adapter) is NOT a standalone MCP server:

  • It is a PHP plugin that must be installed within a running WordPress instance
  • Requires the WordPress Abilities API plugin (wordpress/abilities-api)
  • Uses WP-CLI for STDIO transport: wp mcp-adapter serve --user=admin --server=mcp-adapter-default-server
  • HTTP transport available via /wp-json/mcp/mcp-adapter-default-server
  • The docker-compose.yml entry for wordpress-mcp needs to be reconfigured or removed
  • For containerized use, would need a full WordPress + plugins image, not just the MCP adapter

Previously Documented Issues

  • matomo-mcp: Vendor repository does not exist. The CloneVendorRepos.sh references https://github.com/ahujasid/matomo-mcp-client.git which returns 404. Unable to build until a valid source is identified.
  • discourse-mcp: Vendor repository exists but is empty. The CloneVendorRepos.sh references https://github.com/ahujasid/discourse-mcp.git which has no commits. Unable to build until repository has content.

Usage

To build and start a specific server:

docker compose up -d <service-name>

To view logs:

docker compose logs -f <service-name>

To stop a server:

docker compose stop <service-name>

To rebuild a server after changes:

docker compose build --no-cache <service-name>

To test MCP server with Crush:

# Stdio-based servers are run on-demand by Crush
# Configuration is in crush.json
# Crush automatically handles docker run -i --rm

Note: Use lowercase service names from compose file. Container names will be prefixed with kneldevstack-aimiddleware-.
