argot

Overview

argot is a Model Context Protocol server that analyzes git history to learn patterns and perform read-only context checks against your codebase. It runs entirely locally without requiring an LLM, allowing any MCP-compatible AI assistant to call its tools and decide when to apply pattern-based checks during conversations or agent runs.

The server installs locally via npx -y @tmonier/argot and requires no credentials to get started. It communicates with MCP clients over stdio and is published as v0.2.127 under the MIT license. The source code is available at get-tmonier/argot on GitHub, where the project has 48 stars.

argot is categorized under AI & Agents on mcp.site and integrates with MCP clients including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, and others. If you maintain argot, you can claim this listing to verify ownership and keep information current.
