Installation & Setup

Integrating the BrainSync Enterprise architecture into your workflow takes less than 60 seconds. BrainSync operates silently in the background, requiring absolutely zero manual context syncing.

Phase 1: Bootstrapping the Node

Install the BrainSync extension directly from the VS Code Marketplace or Open VSX Registry.

Once installed, BrainSync automatically provisions your local ~/.bsync_core directory to securely store your MCP settings and active database pointers.

Phase 2: Connecting the Agent (MCP Integration)

BrainSync does not try to replace your preferred AI assistant. It turbocharges it via the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

Upon standard installation, BrainSync auto-discovers your installed IDEs (Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Desktop, etc.) and injects the proper JSON configuration. If you need to manually connect an MCP client, point it to the local execution path defined in your user configuration profile.

Phase 3: Triggering Intelligence

With the extension active and your agent configured, start coding. When you ask a complex architectural question, instruct your agent to use the `mcp_brainsync_[capability]` tools.

Because of the strict Data Residency model, BrainSync ensures your active state remains cleanly isolated per workspace.
