Compared with every active server in this category in the registry. Stars count only when the publisher owns the repo.
It passed 2 of 4 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.
The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.
Either way works: install it on your computer or connect to the cloud version.
The GitHub repo last changed 4 months ago, and the latest version (0.1.3) reached the registry 4 months ago.
Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT on the web (full MCP on Business and above; Pro read-only).

Ground truth for AI coding agents.
Your agent's knowledge froze on a date. Asynthetic tells it exactly what changed — every breaking change between library versions, cited and tested.
claude mcp add --transport http asynthetic https://asynthetic.up.railway.app/mcp
// agent asks: get_migration("ai", "^4.0.0", "^5.0.0")
{ "found": true, "verification_level": "medium", "migration": { "breaking_changes": [ { "title": "maxTokens renamed to maxOutputTokens", "before_code": "generateText({ model, maxTokens: 1024, prompt })", "after_code": "generateText({ model, maxOutputTokens: 1024, prompt })", "source_url": "https://ai-sdk.dev/docs/migration-guides/migration-guide-5-0" } // …22 more, every one cited ] } }
Every coding agent ships with a knowledge freeze date. The libraries it writes against don't.
So agents do what the training data taught them: they write maxTokens into AI SDK 5 (removed), synchronous params into Next.js 15 (now a Promise), LangChainAdapter imports from a package that no longer exports them. The code looks right. The agent is confident. The build breaks — or worse, it doesn't, and the bug ships.
Tools that fetch current documentation tell agents what the API looks like *today*. That's half the problem. An upgrade needs the diff: what changed, what replaced it, and what silently behaves differently. No amount of "current docs" contains that.
Asynthetic is that missing half. Ask it about an upgrade, and it returns a hand-curated migration map: ordered breaking changes with before/after code, deprecation timelines, peer-version requirements, and a citation for every claim. Retrieval, never generation — the same question gets the same verified answer every time.
Without Asynthetic — the agent "upgrades" your AI SDK app from memory: keeps result.usage for billing (now silently counts only the final step), leaves temperature unset (v5 removed the implicit 0 — output turns nondeterministic), renames nothing because v4 syntax *was* correct when the model trained.
With Asynthetic — one tool call returns all 23 breaking changes for that exact version window, including the three above, each with the fix and the official source. The agent applies facts. You review a diff instead of debugging a regression.
That's the product: the difference between an agent that remembers and an agent that knows.
| Migration Maps | Hand-curated upgrade intelligence per version window: 40 breaking changes across 2 live maps (next 14→15, ai 4→5) |
| Citations | Every map cites official sources and carries a last_verified date. Maps are never LLM-generated. |
| Verification Levels | Every response self-reports confidence: high (empirically tested on real builds), medium, low — derived, never self-declared |
| Field Notes | Where reality diverges from docs, maps say so — e.g. Turbopack doesn't actually enforce the @next/font removal that Webpack does; Next 15's React 19 "requirement" isn't build-enforced. Found by running the upgrades, not reading about them. |
| SemVer Resolution | Ask with ranges (^14.2.0 → ^15.0.0); resolution method is always disclosed |
| Peer Checks | Static compatibility answers (next@15 + react@18.2 → false, with the cited reason) |
| Honest Misses | No data means found: false and an explicit instruction not to guess — never a plausible fabrication |
The next 14→15 map is Asynthetic's first verification_level: high: every entry tested against real builds on 14.2.35 and 15.5.20, across Turbopack and Webpack, dev and production.
Hosted (nothing to install):
claude mcp add --transport http asynthetic https://asynthetic.up.railway.app/mcp
Local (offline, bundled data):
claude mcp add asynthetic -- npx -y asynthetic
Any MCP client works — Cursor, Claude Code, Windsurf, or your own agent:
{ "mcpServers": { "asynthetic": { "url": "https://asynthetic.up.railway.app/mcp" } } }
Then upgrade something. The agent calls get_migration before it edits.
| Tool | Answers |
|---|---|
get_migration(package, from, to) | "What breaks between these versions, and how do I fix each one?" |
get_breaking_changes(package, version) | "What does this version break?" |
check_peer_compatibility(a, va, b, vb) | "Do these two versions work together?" — true / false / unknown, cited |
list_available_maps() | "What does Asynthetic know?" |
Full response shape, transports (Streamable HTTP + stdio + legacy SSE), and self-hosting: see docs below.
Asynthetic's founding rule: a wrong map is worse than no map. Everything follows from that.
verified status is earned empirically, not editorially: real projects, both bundlers, dev and production, on pinned versions. The process regularly finds things the docs get wrong — those findings ship in the maps.verification_level, source_count, pre-release warnings), so agents can weigh answers instead of trusting blindly.Narrow and deep, on purpose: fast-moving AI and JavaScript frameworks first, correctness over coverage always.
git clone https://github.com/asyntheticai/asynthetic.git
cd asynthetic && npm install && npm run build && npm start
Zero-config serves the bundled maps over stdio. Set PORT for HTTP mode (/mcp, legacy /sse, health at /). Set SUPABASE_URL + SUPABASE_ANON_KEY to serve from Postgres (schema/schema.sql, then npm run seed). Missing config never crashes — it falls back and says so on stderr.

Read-only by construction: every tool is a lookup over curated data. No code execution, no request-time fetching, no access to your project or filesystem. The hosted endpoint sees only tool arguments (package names, version strings); sessions are ephemeral, in-memory, and isolated. Report issues via GitHub security advisories.
