sugarai-mcp

MCP server for Sugar - autonomous AI development system.

What is Sugar?

Sugar is an AI-powered autonomous development system that runs 24/7, executing development tasks in the background. It discovers work from error logs, GitHub issues, and code analysis, then implements fixes and features autonomously.
