Repo Graph
Give your coding agent a structural graph of your repository so navigation and refactors follow real module relationships instead of blind file search.
Overview
Repo Graph is a MCP server for the Build phase that maps a repository into a structural graph so LLMs navigate code by architecture instead of guesswork.
What is this MCP server?
- Builds a structural graph map of any target repository (PyPI mcp-repo-graph v0.4.19)
- stdio MCP via uvx runtime hint for fast Python-based launches
- --repo filepath argument or REPO_GRAPH_REPO env for project root
- Helps LLMs navigate by structure instead of guessing from partial file reads
- Open-source GitHub repo James-Chahwan/repo-graph
- PyPI identifier mcp-repo-graph version 0.4.19 with uvx runtime hint
- stdio transport; repo path via --repo named argument or REPO_GRAPH_REPO env
- GitHub repository James-Chahwan/repo-graph
What problem does it solve?
Agents waste tokens and miss dependencies when they explore large repos file-by-file without a structural map of how the project fits together.
Who is it for?
Indie builders with growing monorepos or multi-package apps who rely on agents for implementation and need structural context.
Skip if: Tiny scratch repos with few files, or teams that only need issue-tracker or CI integrations without code-structure analysis.
What do I get? / Deliverables
After you configure repo-graph with your project path, your assistant can reason over codebase structure for safer navigation, refactors, and implementation plans.
- Structural graph representation of the configured repository
- Agent workflows grounded in module and project relationships
- Repeatable MCP launch pinned to package version 0.4.19
Recommended MCP Servers
Journey fit
Repo-graph is invoked while you are actively building and steering agents across code, which places it on Build / agent-tooling as the primary shelf. It maps codebase structure for LLM navigation—a core agent affordance—rather than running tests, deploying, or monitoring production.
How it compares
Codebase structure graph MCP, not a test runner, linter, or deployment server.
Common Questions / FAQ
Who is Repo Graph for?
It is for developers using MCP-enabled coding agents on real repositories who want graph-based structural navigation instead of unstructured search.
When should I use Repo Graph?
Use it during Build agent-tooling (and code review prep) when the codebase is large enough that module relationships matter for correct edits.
How do I add Repo Graph to my agent?
Register the stdio PyPI server mcp-repo-graph with uvx, set --repo or REPO_GRAPH_REPO to your project root, and connect it in your MCP client per version 0.4.19 metadata.
