Public-domain military strategy and philosophy texts as MCP tools: Sun Tzu, Napoleon and more.

Overview

AI-generated overview

Serves public-domain military strategy and philosophy texts — Sun Tzu, Napoleon, Clausewitz and others — as tools an assistant can query and apply to modern…

What you can do
  • Retrieve Napoleon's maxims, filterable by category
  • Read Sun Tzu's Art of War by chapter
  • Look up a commander's doctrine by name
  • Apply a strategic lens to a described modern problem
  • Browse the public-domain bibliography by domain
When to use it
Useful when you want historical strategy, leadership or decision frameworks quoted and applied to business, organizational or educational questions, rather than raw text scanning.
Requirements
A local Python environment; install the package from PyPI and register it as a stdio server. No accounts, API keys or environment variables are declared.
Before you install
The README states it is for research and analysis, not operational military planning, and that demo data is labeled DEMO and unsuitable for operational decisions. Content is historical public-domain material, so treat any modern application as interpretation.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Decision Intelligence Mcp in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

Other MCP clients

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

What This Is Not

This is a research and analytical tool. Public domain military history for:

  • Strategic analysis and decision frameworks
  • Historical research and education
  • Leadership and organizational thinking
  • Competitive strategy and planning

Not for operational military planning.

The Public Domain Opportunity

Every work cited here is in the public domain. The content is free. The value is in:

  • Structured access (not raw text scanning)
  • AI-native interfaces (not PDFs)
  • Synthesis across traditions (not single-source)
  • Modern application frameworks (not historical trivia)

This is the model for the next wave of knowledge infrastructure.

Score

50% of the applicable checks met

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.

  • Reached in the last 30 days25 pts

    Keep the endpoint answering the MCP handshake; SourceWeft probes it every 30 days.

  • Auth declared10 pts

    Declare the credential headers in the registry entry, or keep the endpoint answering the probe so its auth can be classified.
