Anubis
Embeds intelligent guidance into AI workflows to organize development and ensure quality.
ππ’πΉπΈβππΉπππΉπ’π - Intelligent Guidance for AI Workflows
Transform your AI agent from chaotic coder to intelligent workflow orchestrator with three powerful capabilities:
Three Pillars of Intelligent Workflow Management
Intelligent Guidance | Seamless Transitions | Repository Pattern Architecture
NPM Package β’ Docker Hub β’ Website
QUICK START
Option 1: NPX (Recommended)
Add to your MCP client config
{
"mcpServers": {
"anubis": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@hive-academy/anubis"],
"env": {
"PROJECT_ROOT": "C:\\path\\to\\projects"
}
}
}
}
Option 2: Docker (MCP Configuration)
For Unix/Linux/macOS (mcp.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"anubis": {
"command": "docker",
"args": [
"run",
"--rm",
"-i",
"-v",
"${PWD}:/app/workspace",
"-v",
".anubis:/app/.anubis",
"hiveacademy/anubis"
]
}
}
}
For Windows (mcp.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"anubis": {
"command": "docker",
"args": [
"run",
"--rm",
"-i",
"-v",
"C:\\path\\to\\your\\project:/app/workspace",
"-v",
"C:\\path\\to\\your\\project\\.anubis:/app/.anubis",
"hiveacademy/anubis"
]
}
}
}
INITIALIZE CUSTOM-MODES ( AGENT RULES)
Once you get the mcp server running you need to initialize the rules (custom-modes) for the agent you are using
Supported Agents: cursor β’ copilot β’ roocode β’ kilocode
Step 1: Initialize Intelligent Guidance
Please initialize Anubis workflow rules for [your-agent-name] by calling the init_rules MCP tool
Step 2: Start Your Workflow
Begin a new workflow for [your-project] with Anubis guidance
ROOCODE Setup Example
1- install the MCP server:
{
"mcpServers": {
"anubis": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@hive-academy/anubis"],
"env": {
"PROJECT_ROOT": "C:\\path\\to\\projects"
}
}
}
}
2- then make sure you are on Code mode and ask it to generate the custom Anubis mode for you
Please initialize Anubis workflow rules for roocode by calling the init_rules MCP tool
3- reload the window and you should see the custom mode in the modes dropdown list. activate it and ask it to create your first task
4- also if you don't have a memory bank files, ask it to generate them for you as the first task.
Cursor Setup Example
For Cursor users, here's a complete setup example:
- Install MCP Server in Cursor:
- Open Cursor Settings (
Cmd/Ctrl + ,) - Navigate to "Extensions" β "MCP Servers"
- Add new server configuration:
"anubis": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@hive-academy/anubis"], "env": { "PROJECT_ROOT": "C:\\path\\to\\projects" } } - Open Cursor Settings (
- Initialize Cursor Rules
- Make Sure the mcp server is working and active.
- ask the agent to
Please initialize Anubis workflow rules for cursor by calling the init_rules MCP tool. - you should see a file generated at .cursor/rules with the name
000-workflow-core.mdc - Head over to cursor rules and make sure the rules file are added and active.
Now You are ready to start you first task π.
Hint: an important first step task is to generate memory-bank files Ask the agent to
Please create a task to analyze codebase and generate memory-bank files (ProjectOverview.md, TechnicalArchitecture.md, and DeveloperGuide.md)
Claude Code Setup Example
-
To install the mcp server use this command
claude mcp add anubis npx -y @hive-academy/anubismake sure you are on the poject root you want to install this into.
-
To make sure it's installed correctly run
claude mcp listyou should see a server with nameanubis. -
now you will need to do a very important step:
- Download this rules markdown file Anubis Rules
- Save it inside your project for example inside a folder names
rulesand file nameanubis-rules.md. - Then open your CLAUDE.md file and add the following:
Anubis Workflow @rules/anubis-rules.md

CORE VALUE #1: INTELLIGENT GUIDANCE FOR AI AGENTS
Your AI agent receives step-by-step intelligent rules for every development task:
// Before Anubis: Chaotic, directionless coding
"Create a user authentication system" β Where do I start?
// With Anubis: Intelligent guidance at every step
"Create a user authentication system" β
Requirements Analysis (Researcher Role)
System Architecture (Architect Role)
Enhanced Implementation with Subtasks (Senior Dev Role)
Quality Validation (Code Review Role)
Delivery Preparation (Integration Engineer Role)
Benefits:
- 30-50% faster development with structured workflows
- 40-60% fewer defects through quality gates
- 100% MCP-compliant guidance without execution
CORE VALUE #2: SEAMLESS TASK & ROLE TRANSITIONS
Never lose context when switching between roles or continuing tasks:
// Seamless context preservation across transitions
{
"currentRole": "architect",
"completedSteps": ["requirements", "design"],
"context": {
"decisions": ["JWT for auth", "PostgreSQL for storage"],
"rationale": "Scalability and security requirements",
"nextSteps": ["Enhanced Implementation with Subtasks by Senior Dev role"]
}
}
// β Switch roles without losing any context!
Features:
- Intelligent context preservation between role switches
- Automatic task handoffs with full history
- Role-based boundaries for focused expertise
- Pause and resume workflows anytime
INTELLIGENT ROLE SYSTEM

"Security best practices",
"Error handling implemented"
],
"context": {
"previousDecisions": ["PostgreSQL", "JWT strategy"],
"nextRole": "code-review"
}
}
}
// 3. Agent executes with confidence and reports
await report_step_completion({
result: 'success',
metrics: {
filesCreated: 8,
