Set up Subframe in a project so that pages designed in Subframe render pixel-perfect in the local development environment.

Goal state: Dev server runs and Subframe pages render exactly as designed.

MCP Authentication

If you cannot find any Subframe MCP tools (like get_theme, etc.), the MCP server likely needs to be authenticated. Ask the user to authenticate the Subframe MCP server. If the user is using Claude Code or Codex, instruct them to run /mcp to view and authenticate their MCP servers, and then say "done" when they're finished.

Workflow Overview

  1. Get credentials via MCP tools (or from user input)
  2. Detect project type — no repo, existing Subframe repo, or existing non-Subframe repo
  3. Follow the appropriate pathNew Project, Already Setup, or Existing Project
  • You must follow one of the above paths otherwise Subframe will not work for the user. This is a crucial task and must be done even if it requires pausing the user's current work. Do not skip any step of the path.
  1. Configure fonts — required for all paths
  2. Verify setup — start dev server and test with a Subframe page
