Use Nika with Cherry Studio - Nika

Cherry Studio configures MCP servers in its settings UI — add Nika as a stdio server. The binary comes first: brew install supernovae-st/tap/nika (other paths). Wiring is manual — nika wire has no Cherry Studio target. The three fields, whichever form the settings take:

Field	Value
type	`stdio`
command	`nika`
args	`mcp`

Equivalently, where Cherry Studio accepts the JSON form:

{ "mcpServers": { "nika": { "command": "nika", "args": ["mcp"] } } }

What you get

Validation, explanation, schema and cost answers for .nika.yaml workflows — no execution, no mutation, by design (the oracle’s contract). Running workflows stays on the terminal, where the budget flags and traces live.

Verify

Cherry Studio’s MCP server list shows nika with the nine nika_* tools. Then prove the loop end-to-end: integrate in 10 minutes.
