🚀 Getting Started

1. Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/<your-username>/FactoryMind-AI.git

cd FactoryMind-AI

2. Install Dependencies

npm install

3. Configure Environment Variables

Create a .env file from .env.example.

Example:

OPENAI_API_KEY=your_api_key

▶️ Run the Project

Development

npm run dev

Production

npm run build
npm start

---

MCP Setup

FactoryMind AI is built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP) using NitroStack.

Configure your MCP server and register the available tools before starting the application.

Example MCP configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "factorymind": {
      "command": "npm",
      "args": ["run", "start"]
    }
  }
}

Once connected, the assistant can invoke manufacturing tools through MCP.
