Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Universal MCP to LSP bridge exposing language server code intelligence as MCP tools

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: Other

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.

The maker has not listed install details in the registry. See the maker’s README below.

What it can do

Runs on your computer; the tool list appears in your AI app after you install it.

  • Published to the registry more recently than 87% of the other 32417 servers in this category

Common questions

Is mcpls 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 (0.9.1) reached the registry 4 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

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

What can I use instead?

mcpls

Give your AI coding agent a compiler's understanding of your code.

mcpls is a bridge between the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and the Language Server Protocol (LSP). It runs the language servers for your project (rust-analyzer, pyright, gopls, and others) and exposes their type information, references, diagnostics and refactoring as 31 MCP tools, so an AI client reasons about code the way an IDE does.

Installation

Linux and macOS:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bug-ops/mcpls/main/scripts/install.sh | sh

Windows (PowerShell):

irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bug-ops/mcpls/main/scripts/install.ps1 | iex

Or with Cargo:

cargo install mcpls

Prebuilt archives for Linux, macOS and Windows (x86_64 and aarch64) with SHA256 checksums and build-provenance attestations are on GitHub Releases.

mcpls is also listed in the official MCP Registry as io.github.bug-ops/mcpls (cargo package, stdio transport), so registry-aware clients can discover it there. The listing installs the same crate as cargo install mcpls.

You also need at least one language server, for example rustup component add rust-analyzer. See Installation for other methods and servers.

Quick start

Register mcpls with Claude Code:

claude mcp add --scope user mcpls -- mcpls

Then ask about your code:

You:    What is the return type of process_request?

Claude: [get_hover] It returns Result .

You: Find everywhere ApiError::Timeout is handled. Claude: [get_references] Found 4 matches: src/handlers/api.rs:89, ...

Rust projects need no configuration. Other languages and clients are covered in the book.

Features

  • Type information and documentation at any position
  • Cross-references, definitions, implementations across the whole workspace
  • Real diagnostics from the compiler, not guesses
  • Rename and code-action edits returned for the client to apply
  • Call and type hierarchies, formatting, inlay hints, selection and folding ranges
  • Workspace symbol search across every language server of a polyglot project, with each symbol tagged by its server
  • Address code by symbol name as well as by position, and restart language servers on demand
  • Several language servers at once, started concurrently and stopped with mcpls, with graceful degradation when one fails
  • stdio by default, optional HTTP transport with Host and Origin allowlists and resource subscriptions
  • Untrusted-workspace mode for analyzing code you do not trust
  • Single Rust binary, no runtime dependencies, no unsafe code; release archives carry build-provenance attestations

Security

Language servers run code that comes with the workspace, and mcpls does not sandbox them. Read SECURITY.md and the Security and Trust chapter before pointing mcpls at code you did not write.

Agent skill

skills/mcpls is a packaged Agent Skill that teaches an AI coding agent to install, configure and run mcpls.

Development

cargo build

cargo nextest run --workspace --all-features

Requires Rust 1.99 or later (edition 2024). The book lives in book/ and is built with mdBook. See CONTRIBUTING.md.
