What is MCPunk?

MCPunk is a server based on the Model Context Protocol (MCP) that allows you to explore and understand codebases through conversations. It achieves intelligent navigation by breaking files into logical blocks (such as functions, classes, Markdown sections) and empowering large language model tools to search these blocks.

How to use MCPunk?

MCPunk can be integrated into your development environment with simple settings, for example, used in conjunction with Claude Desktop. Just a few lines of configuration are needed to start querying specific information in the codebase.

Applicable Scenarios

MCPunk is very suitable for scenarios where you need to quickly locate code logic, analyze complex project structures, or conduct code reviews. Whether you are an individual developer or working in a team, it can significantly improve efficiency.

Main Features

Project Configuration
Divide an entire directory and its files into logical blocks (such as functions, classes, Markdown sections) for subsequent search.
File Search
Find files containing specific text based on keywords.
Block-level Search
Find logical blocks containing specific text in a specified file.
Code Snippet Viewing
Get the complete content of a specific logical block.
Git Analysis
Parse the recently checked branch history and generate a difference report.
Advantages
Simple and easy to use without complex embedded configuration
Supports file parsing of multiple programming languages
Provides clear context search capabilities
Supports human intervention to optimize the search process
Limitations
May have limited performance for very large codebases
Does not support fuzzy search and requires exact matching
Some advanced features still need manual adjustment

How to Use

Install uv
Install the uv tool according to the official documentation, which is the basis for running the MCP service.
Configure Claude Desktop
Edit the configuration file of Claude Desktop and add the definition of the MCPunk server.
Restart Claude Desktop
Restart the client after saving the configuration and wait for the MCPunk tool to finish loading.

Usage Examples

Set up a project and query how Python files are chunked
Ask MCPunk how to set up a Python project and understand its file chunking logic.
Review PR changes
Compare the differences between the current branch and the target branch and guide others on how to quickly review the code.
