What is the 'Neural Link'?

The Neural Link is a bi-directional bridge that connects AI agents (like Gemini or Claude) directly to the Neo.mjs runtime. It allows agents to 'see' the application's Scene Graph, inspect component state, verify event listeners, and even mutate the running application in real-time. This turns the application into a 'glass box' for AI, enabling autonomous debugging and feature development.

Why is Neo.mjs called an 'Application Engine' instead of a framework?

Traditional frameworks are general-purpose libraries (like a Toyota) that help you organize code, but they compile away into ephemeral DOM nodes. Neo.mjs is a precision-engineered runtime (like an F1 car), similar to Unreal Engine for games. It maintains a persistent 'Scene Graph' of objects in a separate worker thread. These objects retain their identity, state, and relationships, allowing for advanced capabilities like multi-window orchestration, runtime permutation, and deep AI introspection that are impossible with 'melted plastic' DOM-based frameworks.

What is 'Context Engineering'?

Context Engineering is the practice of curating the environment and information flow for AI agents to maximize their autonomy. In Neo.mjs, this is implemented via three Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers: a Knowledge Base for semantic code understanding, a Memory Core for learning from past sessions, and a GitHub Workflow server for project management. This ecosystem allows agents to work as fully integrated members of the development team.

What is 'Object Permanence' in the context of Neo.mjs?

In Neo.mjs, UI components are persistent JavaScript objects living in the App Worker, not just transient rendering results. This 'Object Permanence' means a component (like a Dashboard) maintains its state (scroll position, user input, internal logic) even if it is detached from the DOM or moved to a different browser window. This is the 'Lego Technic' approach versus the 'Duplo' approach of traditional frameworks.

What is an 'Agent Operating System'?

Neo.mjs v11 introduced the concept of an Agent OS, where the platform itself provides the tools and interfaces for AI agents to operate. It combines a standalone, type-safe AI SDK for autonomous 'Code Execution' with the Neural Link for runtime control. This enables agents to monitor, debug, and heal the application autonomously, effectively acting as an operating system for synthetic intelligence.

How does Neo.mjs handle multi-window applications?

Neo.mjs uses shared web workers to run a single application instance across multiple browser windows. All windows share the same application state and data in real-time. Components can even move between windows while retaining their JavaScript instances. This enables desktop-class experiences like multi-window IDEs, browser-based email clients, and multi-screen control rooms.

What makes Neo.mjs different from React, Angular, or Vue?

Neo.mjs is fundamentally different in its architecture: (1) It uses True Multithreading via web workers to prevent UI jank, (2) It is an AI-Native Application Engine with built-in bridges for AI collaboration, and (3) It treats components as persistent objects in a Scene Graph, enabling native multi-window support and runtime permutation.

MCP Server: Implement Knowledge Read Endpoints

Name: Neo.mjs Application Engine
Author: Neo.mjs

Closed v11.0.0 enhancementhelp wantedgood first issuehacktoberfestai

This ticket is for implementing the primary read endpoints for the Knowledge Base MCP server. This involves fetching and listing documents from the ChromaDB collection.

Acceptance Criteria

The server is extended to implement the GET /documents endpoint, which lists all documents in the knowledge base (pagination is optional but preferred).
The server is extended to implement the GET /documents/:id endpoint, which retrieves a single document by its ID.
Both endpoints return data in the structured JSON format defined in the design ticket.
Appropriate error handling is implemented for cases like a document not being found.

Agent Instructions

To work on this ticket, please start your session with the following prompt:

Please follow the instructions in @AGENTS.md.

Once you are initialized, I want to work on a sub-task for the "Architect AI Tooling as a Model Context Protocol (MCP) Servers" epic.

My task is to implement: MCP Server: Implement Knowledge Read Endpoints

You will need to read the epic context from @.github/ISSUE/epic-architect-ai-tooling-as-mcp.md and the specific ticket details from @.github/ISSUE/ticket-implement-knowledge-read-endpoints.md before we begin.

Hey @tobiu I can continue my contribution to #7399 by working on this issue. Let me know if you dont mind.

Cheers

Thx, appreciated!

I think I should wait for #7403 to complete before I can start this. I can take #7402 until then.

tobiu Oct 8, 2025, 2:46 PM

sounds good to me. hint: you need to add a comment to #7402, otherwise i can not assign it to you (github security policy).

tobiu Oct 24, 2025, 11:24 AM

i think this one was resolved via a 2 tickets in 1 PR. logic got converted to the new servers.
