Repo Therapist

An MCP server that transforms repositories into queryable knowledge by combining static code analysis with git history tracking. It allows users to investigate codebase structure, identify fragile files based on churn, and receive risk assessments through natural language queries.

Caution. Specific findings reduced this grade. They are listed on the page. Grades reflect the full trust pyramid: code, verification depth, and reputation. New projects cap at C until adoption is earned.

These names and descriptions are the publisher's own, read from the source code. We print them as written. Our assessment is the findings above, not this list.

analyze_repo

Analyze a repository to understand its structure, dependencies, and git history. Run this first before asking questions.

ask_repo

Ask a question about an analyzed repository. Questions can be about structure, purpose, dependencies, patterns, or concerns.

repo_summary

Get a high-level summary of the analyzed repository including tech stack, structure, and key components.

risk_report

Generate a risk assessment report identifying code smells, complexity hotspots, and areas that might cause problems.

get_snapshot

Get the static snapshot (ground truth) of the repository. This is the authoritative source - LLMs must cite this data, not guess. Use section parameter to get specific data.

get_history

Get git history analysis - the time dimension. Reveals WHY code is the way it is: file churn, ownership, fragile files, hot paths vs stable core.

why_is_this_weird

Explain why a specific file is the way it is, based on git history. Answers questions like 'Why is this file so complex?' with data: 'Because it's been rewritten 12 times by 5 different people.'

// known CVEs in dependencies2 critical4 high

Disclosed vulnerabilities in this server's declared npm dependencies (via OSV). Whether each is reachable depends on the installed versions.

Tool annotations

No tools have read-only/destructive annotations

Add readOnlyHint or destructiveHint annotations to every tool so hosts can warn users before invoking.

All four hints declared on every tool

7/7 tools missing one or more hints — analyze_repo (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); ask_repo (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); repo_summary (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +4 more. OpenAI's directory rejects tools where any of the four hints are missing or non-boolean.

For every tool, set all four hints (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint) to explicit true/false values that match the handler’s actual behaviour.

License file

No license file

Add a LICENSE file (MIT, Apache-2.0, etc.).

Tool test coverage

Only 1/7 tools referenced in tests (14%)

Write tests that reference each tool by name so every tool has at least one test.

Production dependencies are patched

1 critical, 4 high severity in production deps — simple-git@3.22.0 (critical), @modelcontextprotocol/sdk@1.0.0 (high)

Run npm audit fix, or upgrade the affected packages to a non-vulnerable version.

Dev dependencies

1 critical/high in dev-only deps (does not ship to users)

Upgrade dev dependencies when convenient.

// full audit trail
The findings above are the summary. The full trail, every check we ran, each deduction, the network hosts observed and the dependency advisories, goes to verified publishers, along with an alert whenever a new one lands. Verified publishers can also review each finding and dispute it in one click. Publisher corrections have sharpened several of our checks this month, because the maintainer knows the codebase better than any scanner.
// improvement guidance — verified publishers only
We have 6 concrete improvements we can share with the publisher of this MCP. Each comes with specific guidance to raise the trust score.
