Strunk MCP server

Strunk plugin

The install-once bundle of Strunk. Claude Code reads .claude-plugin/plugin.json and .mcp.json. Hermes Agent, VS Code and other Agent Plugins hosts read plugin.json and mcp.json. Both point at the same server and the same skills.

• The Strunk remote MCP (.mcp.json, mcp.json), served over Streamable HTTP at https://strunk.io/mcp and protected by WorkOS/AuthKit OAuth. It carries the atomic transport tools: publish_doc, pick_google_doc, pull_comments, apply_revisions, reply_comment, resolve_comment, inspect_doc, get_preferences, set_preferences, get_account, get_version, get_review_workflow and get_writing_rules.
• Slash commands (commands/, Claude Code only): /strunk:pull-comments, /strunk:publish, /strunk:link-doc.
• Two skills. skills/strunk-review/ makes a session reach for Strunk when the author mentions a doc that came back with comments. skills/strunk-setup/ walks the two connections Strunk needs.
• SETUP.md, followed on install, which ends at the author's first review rather than at "connected".

Every one of these is a launcher. The review workflow, the triage tiers and the author's writing rules are not bundled here. get_review_workflow and get_writing_rules serve them live from the Strunk backend, so they stay current without a plugin update and work on any harness that connects to the MCP. The non-negotiable invariants ride in the MCP instructions field, present the moment the server connects and before any tool call.

That split is deliberate: a bundled copy of the judgment drifts from the server that owns it, which is why the original bundled skill was removed. Commands and skills here point at the server. They never restate it.

Hermes Agent

Needs Hermes 0.23.1 or later.

hermes plugins install strunk
hermes mcp add strunk --url https://strunk.io/mcp --auth oauth

The second command signs you in to Strunk. Your browser opens; if it does not, run hermes mcp login strunk. Then start a new session, or run /reload-mcp, so the tools load. The first time you publish or open a doc, Strunk asks you to connect Google Docs.

What to know before installing:

• Network. Every tool call goes to https://strunk.io/mcp. Publishing sends the draft you publish. Pulling comments returns reviewers' comments, names and the spans they anchor to. That content also reaches your model provider through the session, like anything else the agent reads.
• Google access. Strunk uses Google's drive.file scope, which covers only the docs Strunk creates and the files you pick for it.
• Write tools change your Google Docs. Publishing creates or updates a doc. Revising edits it. Replying and resolving act on comment threads under your Google account.
• Approvals. The package marks the strunk server untrusted, so Hermes asks before each write call. The sign-in command above writes its own strunk entry to ~/.hermes/config.yaml, which replaces the package's, trust included. To keep the approval prompt, add trust: untrusted under mcp_servers.strunk in that file.
• Credentials. Hermes stores and refreshes the Strunk OAuth token. Your Google refresh token is held by WorkOS, Strunk's sign-in provider, and never reaches your machine. Nothing in this package reads either one.
• No local code. The package is two manifests and Markdown. The tool list comes from Strunk's server at run time, so the pinned commit does not cover it.
