karst

Overview

karst is a Model Context Protocol server that provides pack-scoped, cited code retrieval for AI development tools. It integrates directly into AI assistants as an MCP server, exposing code context functionality as tools your models can invoke during development workflows.

The server runs locally on your machine via the Python package karst, installed with uvx karst. It communicates with your MCP client over stdio and requires no authentication to get started. karst is published under the Apache-2.0 license at version v0.2.9, with source code available at Moin105/upgraded-garbanzo on GitHub. Full package details are on PyPI at pypi.org/project/karst.

karst is listed in the Development category and works with Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, and other MCP-compatible clients. If you maintain karst, you can claim this listing to verify ownership and keep information up to date.
