@danainnovations/directory-mcp

MCP server for the Sonance employee directory. Gives AI tools (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor) access to real employee data and automatically sets up the npm package for live data in your apps.

Setup

Add to your Claude Code settings:

claude mcp add directory -- npx -y @danainnovations/directory-mcp

That's it. Claude Code now has access to the Sonance employee directory.

What It Does

When you ask Claude to build anything involving employees, teams, or departments:

1. Claude automatically calls setup_directory to install @danainnovations/directory in your project
2. Claude uses the React hooks for live data — never hardcodes employee names
3. Claude can preview real employee data while building your UI

Example Prompts

• "Add an employee directory page"
• "Build a team page for Engineering"
• "Add a people picker to this form"
• "Show me who reports to Sarah Johnson"
• "Add a department dropdown with real departments"
