This server helps your AI coding assistants understand your code repository without overwhelming them with everything. It creates a clear map of your project files, lets you quickly search code snippets, and builds focused markdown summaries that fit token limits. It works locally with apps like Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Cline, requiring no cloud or API keys. Setup involves adding a simple config or running a command, making it easy to integrate into your existing AI tools.

README

repo-context-mcp

MCP server that helps AI coding agents understand a repository — without dumping the entire monorepo into the prompt.

CI License: MIT Node.js >= 18 MCP

Works with Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, and any client that speaks Model Context Protocol.

Why

AI agents waste tokens re-walking node_modules, missing entrypoints, or pasting random files. repo-context-mcp exposes three focused tools:

Tool Purpose
repo_map Lightweight tree + manifests/entrypoints
search_code Fast substring search with path:line hits
pack_context Token-budgeted markdown pack for LLM prompts

Local-only. No cloud. No telemetry. Stdio transport.

Install

# run from source
git clone https://github.com/nduc99911/repo-context-mcp.git
cd repo-context-mcp
npm install
npm run build

# or via npx (after publish)
npx -y repo-context-mcp

Requires Node.js 18+.

CLI (no MCP client)

npm run build

# repository map
node dist/cli.js map .
node dist/cli.js map examples/sample-repo

# search
node dist/cli.js search login examples/sample-repo

# token-aware pack
node dist/cli.js pack . --focus auth,api --max-tokens 8000

# JSON for scripts / CI
node dist/cli.js map . --json
node dist/cli.js pack . --focus src --json
