Git

Overview

Git is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server: Local Git via MCP: status, log, diff, file history, branches, and gated stage/commit. Pure-JS. Because it speaks the Model Context Protocol, AI assistants can use Git as a set of callable tools instead of you copy-pasting between apps.

It runs locally: the npm package @abhishekmcp/git speaks MCP over stdio on your machine. Configuration happens through environment variables — you'll need GIT_ROOTS. The current release is v0.2.0, published under the MIT license, with source at Abhishekkumar2021/mcp-suite on GitHub.

On mcp.site, Git sits in the Version Control category. Any MCP client can use it — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed among them — via the install snippets below.
