Setting up with Highlight
This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:
- Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
- Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
-
Configure the plugin with the settings below
Plugin Name
Z3 Theorem Prover with Functional ProgrammingCommand (node, npx, python, etc.)Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.
- Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches
From the repository
Clone the repo, install dependencies via uv pip install -e ., then run examples with python -m z3_poc.examples.main or start the MCP server with python -m z3_poc.server.main. Configure the server in your VSCode settings.json under mcpServers to enable it in Claude via Cline.

Z3 Theorem Prover with Functional Programming
A Python implementation of abstactions over the Z3 Theorem Prover capabilities using functional programming principles, exposed through a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server.
Overview
This project demonstrates how to use the Z3 Theorem Prover with a functional programming approach to solve complex constraint satisfaction problems and analyze relationships between entities. It leverages the returns library for functional programming abstractions and exposes its capabilities through an MCP server.
Features
- Constraint Satisfaction Problems: Solve complex problems with variables and constraints
- Relationship Analysis: Analyze and infer relationships between entities
- Functional Programming: Uses pure functions, immutable data structures, and monadic error handling
- MCP Server: Exposes Z3 capabilities through a standardized interface
