CodeGraphMCPServer

A lightweight, high-performance source code analysis MCP server with zero configuration

🇯🇵 日本語版 README

Overview

CodeGraphMCPServer is an MCP server that understands codebase structure and provides GraphRAG (Graph Retrieval-Augmented Generation) capabilities. With a self-contained architecture requiring no external database, it enables structural understanding and efficient code completion from MCP-compatible AI tools (GitHub Copilot, Claude Desktop, Cursor, etc.).

🧠 GraphRAG Features

• Community Detection: Automatic code module clustering using Louvain algorithm
• LLM Integration: Multi-provider design supporting OpenAI/Anthropic/Local LLMs
• Global Search: Codebase-wide understanding using community summaries
• Local Search: Context retrieval from entity neighborhoods

✨ Features

Requirements

• Python 3.11+
• MCP-compatible client (GitHub Copilot, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf)

Installation

Install with pip

pip install codegraph-mcp-server

Install from source (for development)

git clone https://github.com/nahisaho/CodeGraphMCPServer.git
cd CodeGraphMCPServer
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate  # Linux/macOS
pip install -e ".[dev]"

Quick Start

1. Index a Repository

# Full index
codegraph-mcp index /path/to/repository --full

# Incremental index (default)
codegraph-mcp index /path/to/repository

# Auto re-index with file watching (v0.7.0 NEW)
codegraph-mcp watch /path/to/repository
codegraph-mcp watch /path/to/repository --debounce 2.0  # 2 second debounce
codegraph-mcp watch /path/to/repository --community     # Community detection after re-index

Output example:

Indexed 16 entities, 37 relations in 0.81s

2. Check Statistics

codegraph-mcp stats /path/to/repository

Output example:

Repository Statistics
=====================
Repository: /path/to/repository

Entities: 16
Relations: 37
Communities: 0
Files: 1

Entities by type:
  - class: 2
  - function: 2
  - method: 11
  - module: 1

3. Search Code

codegraph-mcp query "Calculator" --repo /path/to/repository

4. Start as MCP Server

# stdio transport (default)
codegraph-mcp serve --repo /path/to/repository

# SSE transport
codegraph-mcp start --repo /path/to/repository --port 8080

MCP Client Configuration

Claude Desktop

~/.config/claude/claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "codegraph": {
      "command": "codegraph-mcp",
      "args": ["serve", "--repo", "/path/to/your/project"]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

# stdio transport
claude mcp add codegraph -- codegraph-mcp serve --repo /path/to/project

# HTTP transport (SSE server)
codegraph-mcp start --port 8080  # In another terminal
claude mcp add --transport http codegraph http://0.0.0.0:8080

VS Code (GitHub Copilot)

.vscode/settings.json:

{
  "mcp.servers": {
    "codegraph": {
      "command": "codegraph-mcp",
      "args": ["serve", "--repo", "${workspaceFolder}"]
    }
  }
}

Cursor

~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "codegraph": {
      "command": "codegraph-mcp",
      "args": ["serve", "--repo", "/path/to/your/project"]
    }
  }
}

Usage Examples

Conversation with AI Assistant

You: What are the dependencies of the UserService class?

AI: [Using find_dependencies tool]
    UserService depends on:
    - DatabaseConnection (database.py)
    - Logger (utils/logging.py)
    - UserRepository (repositories/user.py)

You: What would be affected if I modify the authenticate method?

AI: [Using find_callers tool]
    Callers of authenticate:
    - LoginController.login() (controllers/auth.py:45)
    - APIMiddleware.verify_token() (middleware/api.py:23)
    - TestUserService.test_auth() (tests/test_user.py:78)

You: Explain the main components of this project

AI: [Using global_search tool]
    [Using explain_codebase prompt]
    
    This project uses a 3-tier architecture:
    1. Controllers layer: HTTP request handling
    2. Services layer: Business logic
    3. Repositories layer: Data access
