PAPI: Persistent Adaptive Project Intelligence

Overview

PAPI: Persistent Adaptive Project Intelligence is an MCP server that enables adaptive plan, build, and review cycles for AI coding assistants. It maintains context and project state across sessions, letting your AI tools access structured project intelligence as callable functions instead of requiring manual context transfer between applications.

Run PAPI either as a hosted service at https://mcp.getpapi.ai/mcp with no setup required, or install it locally via npx -y @papi-ai/server. The latest release is v0.7.85, published under the MIT license with source code available at getpapi/papi on GitHub. No authentication is needed to get started.

PAPI belongs in the Development category on mcp.site and works with MCP clients including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and Zed. If you maintain this project, claim your listing to earn the Verified badge and ensure the information stays current.
