Stratta has two parts: the platform at stratta.ch (accounts, keys, organizations) and the MCP server @stratta/mcp (the connector you install in Claude). This page shows how they fit together — useful if you’re integrating Stratta or just curious.

​

The big picture

​

The MCP server is a thin client

@stratta/mcp is intentionally small. It:

• Speaks the Model Context Protocol over stdio to your Claude client.
• Authenticates each request with your API key.
• Forwards calls to the Stratta backend and returns the results.

All the data and logic — the norms, the org scoping, the citation structure — live on the backend. The package contains no norm content itself, which is why updates are just npx -y @stratta/mcp fetching the latest version.

​

The backend

The backend stores each norm as a TreeRAG structure: a tree of sections under a document, with attached figures, formulas, tables, and crossRefs. Read tools query this tree; ingestion tools write to it. Every record carries an organizationId so requests are scoped to your workspace.

​

Authentication today: API keys

Stratta authenticates the MCP connector with an API key — there is no browser-based OAuth login for the MCP server today. This keeps the connector simple and works everywhere stdio MCP works. (A remote, OAuth-based option has been evaluated but is not currently offered.) See Security and the MCP overview.
