Overview

What is Git Stuff Server?

Git Stuff Server is a Node.js application that implements a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server to provide Git‑related functionalities. Its primary tool generates the textual diff of a Git merge commit against its first parent, intended for developers using MCP‑compatible clients.

How to use Git Stuff Server?

Clone the repository, install dependencies with npm install, compile TypeScript with npm run build, then start the server with npm start (or npm run dev for development). The server listens for MCP requests over standard input/output. Once connected via an MCP client, invoke the get_git_merge_diff tool by supplying a commitHash (the SHA of a merge commit) to receive the diff as text.

Key features of Git Stuff Server

  • Runs as a standard MCP server using stdio.
  • Provides the get_git_merge_diff tool.
  • Executes a PowerShell script to generate diffs.
  • Uses git show -m --first-parent under the hood.
  • Requires Node.js, npm, Git, and PowerShell.

Use cases of Git Stuff Server

  • Review merge commit changes against the first parent.
  • Automate diff extraction in CI/CD or code review workflows.
  • Integrate Git merge analysis into AI‑powered MCP clients.

Frequently asked questions

1

What does the `get_git_merge_diff` tool do?

It accepts a Git merge commit hash, runs a PowerShell script that executes `git show -m --first-parent`, and returns the resulting diff content.

2

What are the prerequisites to run Git Stuff Server?

Node.js, npm, Git, and PowerShell (or `pwsh` on Linux/macOS) must be installed and available in the system PATH.

3

How does the server communicate with clients?

The server uses standard input/output (stdio) as its MCP transport layer.

4

Where is the diff output stored temporarily?

The PowerShell script writes the diff to a file named `merge_changes.diff` in the server’s current working directory, which is then read and deleted by the Node.js process.

5

What license does Git Stuff Server use?

The project is licensed under the MIT License, as stated in the `package.json` file.
