scaffold_service

MCP tool from Codeigniter MCP by X-Gunner

Generates business logic Service with contract-first DI (injects Model in CI4).

How to use it

Project documentation lists scaffold_service for the Codeigniter MCP MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), then check which tools your installed version makes available. Tool availability can depend on configuration and credentials. A server handshake does not verify this tool’s behavior. See the full listing for setup details.
