## What is WISTX?

WISTX is **DevOps Intelligence for AI Coding Assistants** — providing **compliance, cost, and code in one unified context**.

WISTX is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that integrates directly with AI coding assistants like Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Windsurf. Instead of switching between multiple calculators, compliance docs, and pricing pages, your AI coding assistant accesses this information directly through WISTX.

## Why WISTX?

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Compliance Made Easy" icon="shield-check">
    Get instant access to 50K+ compliance controls for PCI-DSS, HIPAA, CIS, SOC2, NIST, ISO 27001, GDPR, and FedRAMP. Your AI assistant can check compliance requirements for any AWS/GCP/Azure resource with remediation guidance and verification procedures.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Real-Time Pricing" icon="calculator">
    Calculate infrastructure costs instantly. Get pricing for 105K+ AWS, GCP, and Azure resources with detailed cost breakdowns, optimization suggestions, and FinOps best practices.
  </Card>

  <Card title="DevOps Knowledge" icon="lightbulb">
    Access always-current DevOps best practices, infrastructure patterns, security guidelines, and optimization strategies. All curated and updated daily.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Index Your Codebase" icon="github">
    Index your GitHub repositories, documentation, and documents to make them searchable. Your AI assistant can search through your own infrastructure code and documentation.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Virtual Filesystem" icon="folder">
    Navigate your indexed repositories like a filesystem. Browse directory structures, read files with infrastructure context, and view files grouped by compliance, costs, or security.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Persistent Context" icon="floppy-disk">
    Save conversations, architecture designs, and code reviews persistently. Automatically analyze compliance, costs, and security. Never lose important context again.
  </Card>

## How It Works

WISTX integrates directly with your AI coding assistant via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). When you ask your AI assistant to create infrastructure, it automatically accesses WISTX's knowledge base:

1. **Install WISTX MCP Server** - One-time setup (takes 2 minutes)
2. **Configure Your Coding Agent** - Works with Cursor, Claude Desktop, VS Code, Windsurf, and more
3. **Start Building** - Your AI assistant now has access to WISTX's knowledge base

<Steps>
  <Step title="Install WISTX">
    Install WISTX MCP using our automated setup script (recommended) or manually configure your IDE. See our [Installation Guide](/integrations/wistx-mcp) for detailed instructions.

    **Quick Install:** `curl -fsSL https://api.wistx.ai/v1/setup/script | bash -s -- YOUR_API_KEY cursor --remote`
  </Step>

  <Step title="Configure Your Agent">
    Add WISTX to your MCP client configuration. We have tested configurations for Cursor, Windsurf, and Claude Desktop. WISTX should work with any MCP-compatible client.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Get Your API Key">
    Sign up at [wistx.ai/api-key](https://wistx.ai/api-key) to get your API key. You'll get 3 free index jobs and 50 queries/month to start!
  </Step>

  <Step title="Start Building">
    Ask your AI assistant questions like "What compliance requirements do I need for a PCI-DSS compliant RDS instance?" or "Calculate the cost for an EKS cluster with 3 m5.large nodes" and watch it use WISTX automatically.
  </Step>
</Steps>
