@whenlabs/when
Six tools. One install.
A single installable toolkit that brings six WhenLabs developer tools into your Claude Code workflow. After install, the tools are exposed over a single MCP server and Claude calls them automatically when relevant.
Install
npx @whenlabs/when install
One-time setup. The installer:
- Registers a single MCP server (
whenlabs) in your Claude Code configuration - Injects a CLAUDE.md block so Claude knows when to use each tool
- Cleans up any legacy
velocity-mcpregistration (velocity is now bundled)
The six tools
| Tool | Purpose |
|---|---|
| aware | Auto-detect stack and generate AI context files (CLAUDE.md, .cursorrules, …) |
| berth | Detect port conflicts before starting dev servers |
| envalid | Validate .env files against a schema |
| stale | Detect documentation drift between docs and code |
| vow | Scan dependency licenses and validate against policy |
| velocity | Time coding tasks and learn from historical data |
MCP tools
Eight endpoints across the six tools:
| Endpoint | What it does |
|---|---|
aware_sync | Detect stack and regenerate AI context files |
berth_check | Scan project for port conflicts |
envalid_validate | Validate .env files against schema |
stale_scan | Detect documentation drift |
vow_scan | Scan licenses and validate against policy |
velocity_start_task | Start timing a coding task |
velocity_end_task | End timing and record results |
whenlabs_summary | Unified rollup across all five scanners in one call |
All eight are served by the single whenlabs MCP server (stdio, Node 20+). Fix/init/auxiliary commands remain available via each tool's CLI (npx @whenlabs/<tool> --help).
CLI
when init # Onboard a project — detect stack, bootstrap configs, run all checks
when doctor # Run all six tools and show a unified health report
when install # Register MCP server in Claude Code
when uninstall # Remove MCP server
For per-tool operations, use the tool directly:
npx @whenlabs/stale scan
npx @whenlabs/envalid validate
npx @whenlabs/berth check
npx @whenlabs/aware sync
npx @whenlabs/vow scan
Manual MCP configuration
If you're not using the install command, add this to your Claude Code MCP config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"whenlabs": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["@whenlabs/when", "when-mcp"]
}
}
}
