RETIRED — Prism / smart-reader-mcp
Status: retired product (hard cut, 2026-08-07)
Prism was a local media router (sniff + spawn Citra/Iris/Cue MCP servers). That composition belongs to the agent host / skills, not a seventh product.
Do not install as a product
- Do not add
smart-reader-mcp/prismas a current MCP server for new agents. - Do not treat this repository as an active Instrument, marketplace listing, or release authority.
- Historical source remains for archaeology only.
What to use instead
| Need | Authority |
|---|---|
| PDF evidence | Citra — @sylphx/citra / repo pdf-reader-mcp |
| Image evidence | Iris — @sylphx/iris / repo image-reader-mcp |
| Video timeline | Cue — @sylphx/cue / repo video-reader-mcp |
| Unknown media type | Host skill: sniff (magic bytes / extension) then call the matching instrument MCP |
| Family law | SylphxAI/skills → apply-instrument-family + docs/knowledge/instruments/INSTRUMENT-FAMILY-LAW.md |
Why retired
- Multi-server MCP hosts already compose independent servers.
- A router product doubles process tax and couples three release trains.
- Instruments law: host owns composition; products own one evidence domain.
Historical package ids (non-authority)
@sylphx/smart-reader-mcp- bin
prism/smart-reader-mcp - MCP name
io.github.SylphxAI/smart-reader-mcp
If these still resolve on npm, they are legacy artifacts, not the current product model.
Sniff utility (non-product)
Magic-byte sniffing for host skills lives under src/sniff/ as reference code.
Prefer copying a minimal sniff into a host skill rather than depending on this package.
