About this project

Copilot finishes your code. MENTOR makes you finish it. A student picks a real project and a role on it, gets the slice they would actually own in a company, designs that slice on a canvas, then builds against checkpoints derived from their own design. When it breaks, MENTOR compares what they planned against what they built and names the decision that caused it — a file and a line — and then refuses to write the fix. The refusal is the product. The concept flashcard is released only after the student's own tests pass, and only one of the three services ever holds an answer, so a bug in the other two cannot leak what the student is meant to earn. 23 tools across three deployed MCP services (8 · 6 · 9), one loop. The usage of the MCP was also implemented at https://github.com/nitrostacklh/command-global.git

What is an MCP app and how is it built?
An MCP app is an application built on the Model Context Protocol — an open standard that lets AI agents connect to tools, data, and APIs. This project exposes MCP tools and resources that agentic AI systems can call. It was built and deployed on NitroStack, the full-stack platform for shipping MCP apps and servers.
