Repoprep, wherever your AI assistant already is
Connect Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client directly to repoprep. Point it at a local folder or a GitHub/GitLab repo, and your assistant gets back the same structured, noise-filtered context repoprep.com produces — no browser tab required.
No tab-switching
Your assistant calls repoprep directly from the conversation — you never leave your editor or chat to go prepare a file first.
Same engine, same filtering
The MCP server runs the same noise-filtering rules as the web app — node_modules, build output, lockfiles, and secrets are excluded automatically.
Runs on your machine
Like the browser version, nothing is uploaded to repoprep's servers. The server reads local files (or fetches a public repo) and returns the result straight to your MCP client.
Set it up in two steps
Works with any MCP client that reads a standard mcpServers config — Claude Desktop and Cursor shown below.
Add repoprep to your MCP config
Open your client's MCP config file (for Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json) and add:
{
"mcpServers": {
"repoprep": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "repoprep-mcp"]
}
}
}Restart your client
npx -y repoprep-mcp on demand — no separate install step needed.Full package details, versioning, and source are on npm. The web app's parsing engine that powers it is verifiable on GitHub.
