Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Commit message convention and DCO sign-off checker over a git history range.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Developer tools

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "commitcheck": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@reneturcios/commitcheck",
        "mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add commitcheck -- npx -y @reneturcios/commitcheck mcp

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "commitcheck": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@reneturcios/commitcheck",
        "mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "commitcheck": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@reneturcios/commitcheck",
        "mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

What it can do

Compared with others in Developer toolsi

  • More stars than 0% of the other 1394 servers in this category
  • Published to the registry more recently than 84% of the other 1394 servers in this category

Compared with every active server in this category in the registry. Stars count only when the publisher owns the repo.

Common questions

Is Commitcheck safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.1.0) reached the registry 7 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js, Docker on your computer.

What can I use instead?

In the same category: GitHub, Desktop Commander, Cloudflare MCP

commitcheck

Commit hygiene checker for a git repository's recent history. It reads the most recent 50 commits and checks subject length, placeholder subjects, DCO Signed-off-by trailers, malformed trailers, and whether each commit follows the message convention the repo itself actually uses. Every finding names the rule and the short sha of the commit it came from.

Install

npx @reneturcios/commitcheck check [path]

Or install it globally:

npm install -g @reneturcios/commitcheck

Requires Node 20 or newer and git on PATH.

CLI

commitcheck check [path] [--json]   # check a repo (default path: .)

commitcheck mcp # run the MCP server on stdio commitcheck --version # print the version

Exit codes: 0 when the verdict is CLEAN, 1 when it is FINDINGS, 2 for a usage error or an unreadable target, and 141 when the reader closed the output pipe early (the shell-visible equivalent of death by SIGPIPE).

Findings are printed in git log order, newest first, and the order is deterministic for a given history.

MCP

The MCP server exposes one tool:

  • check_commits with argument path: runs the same check as the CLI and returns the full report as JSON.

Rules

RuleSeverityWhat it means
SUBJECT-TOO-LONGmediumThe subject line is over 72 characters.
SUBJECT-VAGUElowThe subject is empty or a placeholder such as wip, fix, update, changes, or .
NO-SIGNOFFmediumThe commit has no Signed-off-by trailer, in a repo whose history follows the DCO convention (see below).
CONVENTION-BREAKlowThe subject breaks the dominant message style of the range (see below).
MERGE-COMMITinfoA merge commit, reported for context. Merge commits are never a finding above info.
TRAILER-MALFORMEDlowA Signed-off-by line without an email shape, for example Signed-off-by: Jane Doe with no .

The verdict is CLEAN when the range has no medium findings, and FINDINGS otherwise. Low and info findings are reported but do not change the verdict.

The adaptive rules, stated plainly

commitcheck does not impose a house style. Both convention checks are learned from the range being checked:

  • DCO / sign-off. A commit is flagged NO-SIGNOFF only when the repo demonstrably uses sign-off: at least half of the *other* commits in the range carry a well-formed Signed-off-by trailer. If the repo does not use sign-off, no commit is flagged for missing it. A malformed sign-off line does not count as a sign-off.
  • Message convention. Two styles are tracked: conventional subjects (type: summary or type(scope): summary) and capitalized imperative subjects (Add the thing). When one style is used by at least 70 percent of the non-merge commits in the range, it is the dominant style, and a commit that breaks it is flagged CONVENTION-BREAK. When no style reaches 70 percent, nothing is flagged for style.

Limits

  • Only the last 50 commits are checked.
  • Style detection is statistical. A short or mixed history may have no dominant style, in which case no convention findings are produced.
  • Sign-off presence is checked, not signature validity. commitcheck verifies that a Signed-off-by trailer with an email shape exists; it does not verify that the signer is the author or that any signature is genuine.
  • Merge commits are detected from the Merge ... subject line, which is the default git shape; a hand-written subject that starts with Merge will be reported as one.
