MCP Repo Mapper
Produce deterministic repository structure maps so agents can onboard to new codebases without guessing folder layout.
Overview
MCP Repo Mapper is a MCP server for the Build phase that provides deterministic repository structure maps for onboarding agents.
What is this MCP server?
- Deterministic repository structure mapping (repeatable output)
- Designed for codebase onboarding agents
- stdio MCP via PyPI mcp-repo-mapper 0.1.0
- Complements AST Explorer for layout-first then symbol-deep dives
- Low setup compared to custom repo visualization scripts
- Version 0.1.0
- PyPI identifier mcp-repo-mapper
- stdio MCP transport per registry entry
What problem does it solve?
Agents hallucinate project layout when they lack a stable, repeatable map of directories and key paths.
Who is it for?
Solo builders using MCP agents who need a quick, deterministic tree-oriented onboarding pass on any repo.
Skip if: Teams needing dependency graphs, runtime architecture diagrams, or non-Python-specific semantic analysis alone.
What do I get? / Deliverables
After install, your agent can request consistent repo structure maps before planning changes or docs.
- Repeatable repository structure maps for agent context
- Faster first-pass orientation on new repos
Recommended MCP Servers
Journey fit
Structural mapping is a first step in build when you need a reliable mental model before editing or documenting. Agent-tooling is where repo-structure MCP servers belong—they feed agents a canonical map instead of improvised tree listings.
How it compares
Structure-mapping MCP utility, not a architecture-documentation generator or AST symbol browser.
Common Questions / FAQ
Who is MCP Repo Mapper for?
Indie developers and agent users who frequently open unfamiliar repositories and want reliable layout maps via MCP.
When should I use MCP Repo Mapper?
Use it at the start of a build or fix task when you need a deterministic overview of folders and project organization.
How do I add MCP Repo Mapper to my agent?
Configure stdio MCP with the PyPI package mcp-repo-mapper 0.1.0 in your Claude Code, Cursor, or compatible client.
