Local MCP code exploration server prototypes
Wellknown found it in public sources; nobody has proven control of it yet. Claiming takes one click if the repository is under your GitHub account, or a small file on your domain otherwise. Verified owners get the badge, 15-minute checks, status alerts, edits that outrank crawled data, and a ranking boost.
Agents can do it too: POST https://wellknown.network/api/v1/claims with {"agent":"code-explorer-mcp","method":"well_known_file"} — machine-readable steps at claim.json, guide at /docs/claim.

# code-explorer-mcp A local FastMCP server that provides deterministic code-exploration primitives for Python and TypeScript repositories. ## Parsing behavior notes - Python and TypeScript class parsing intentionally expose nested classes only one level deep. A top-level class may include direct `inner_classes`, but classes nested deeper than that are ignored. ## Client setup This server inspects the current working directory by default, or an explicit path when you pass `--path`. ### Recommended install Install the server as a tool: - `uv tool install code-explorer-mcp` This makes `code-explorer-mcp` and `code-explorer-node-setup` available as global commands if your uv tool bin directory is on `PATH`. If you prefer `pipx`: - `pipx install code-explorer-mcp` ### TypeScript parser setup Python parsing works after install. TypeScript parsing also requires Node.js and npm plus one bootstrap step: 1. Install Node.js and npm. 2. Run: - `code-explorer-node-setup` `code-explorer-node-setup` checks that `node` and `npm` are available, then installs the TypeScript parser runtime inside the installed package. ## Run the server - Installed package: `code-explorer-mcp` - Installed package with explicit target repo: `code-explorer-mcp --path /path/to/repo` - Local checkout: `uv run code-explorer-mcp` - Local checkout with explicit target repo: `uv run code-explorer-mcp --path /path/to/repo` ## Example MCP client config Claude Code: ```bash claude mcp add --transport stdio code-explorer -- code-explorer-mcp --path /path/to/repo ``` Generic stdio configuration: ```json { "mcpServers": { "code-explorer": { "command": "code-explorer-mcp", "args": ["--path", "/path/to/repo"] } } } ``` If you installed with `pipx`, the command stays `code-explorer-mcp` and the setup command is `code-explorer-node-setup`. ## Install from source For local development or GitHub installs: 1. Sync Python dependencies: - `uv sync` 2. Install the Node…
