patchwork — Codebase Conventions for AI Agents

Overview

patchwork is an MCP server that scans your codebase to generate a CONVENTIONS.md file and expose those conventions as tools for AI agents. Once installed, it lets language models understand and follow your project's patterns, style guides, and architectural decisions automatically.

The server runs entirely on your local machine via the Python package patchwork-conventions, installed through uvx. No authentication or external credentials are required—it operates over stdio on your system. The latest release is v0.1.7, distributed under the MIT license with source code available at SaiNarayana-B/patchwork on GitHub.

You'll find patchwork in the AI & Agents category on mcp.site, where it integrates with Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, and other MCP clients. If you maintain patchwork, claim this listing to verify ownership and keep the information up to date.
