Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Codebahn is the private GitHub alternative: fast Git and CI for developers and teams.

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 in the cloud
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP
  • 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 the maker’s server: what you ask it goes through their server.
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

You need

Which app do you use?

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

Works in Claude on the web, desktop and mobile:

  1. Open Settings → Connectors
  2. Press Add custom connector
  3. Paste the address below and press Add
  4. If it asks you to sign in, sign in with the maker
SettingsConnectors1+ Add2https://…3
https://codebahn.net/mcp

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add --transport http codebahn https://codebahn.net/mcp

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "codebahn": {
      "url": "https://codebahn.net/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": {
    "codebahn": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://codebahn.net/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.

ChatGPT connects only to servers on the internet:

  1. Open ChatGPT on the web → Settings → Connectors (Apps)
  2. Press Create or Add (some plans need Developer mode under Advanced first)
  3. Paste the address below, give it a name and save
  4. If it asks you to sign in, sign in with the maker
SettingsConnectors1+ Create2https://…3
https://codebahn.net/mcp

Menu names can differ slightly by plan and over time.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

  • More stars than 0% of the other 1383 servers in this category
  • Published to the registry more recently than 75% of the other 1383 servers in this category
  • Basic checks equal to or better than 100% of the other 1383 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 Codebahn 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 in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.4.2) reached the registry 15 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

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 in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

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

Codebahn CLI

Codebahn is the private GitHub alternative: fast Git and CI for developers and teams. Your code is stored and served. Not scanned, not trained on, not tracked. Swedish company, EU-only infrastructure, every sub-processor EU-incorporated. Built on Forgejo, easy to leave.

Command-line interface for Codebahn.

codebahn auth login

codebahn pr list codebahn issue create --title "ship it" codebahn ci dispatch --workflow ci.yml

One binary. OAuth login. No config files.

Install

Linux and macOS
curl -fsSL https://releases.codebahn.net/cli/install.sh | sh

This detects your platform, downloads the latest binary, verifies its SHA256 checksum, and installs to ~/.local/bin. Override the location with INSTALL_DIR:

curl -fsSL https://releases.codebahn.net/cli/install.sh | INSTALL_DIR=/usr/local/bin sh
Windows
irm https://releases.codebahn.net/cli/install.ps1 | iex

This downloads the latest binary, verifies its SHA256 checksum and GPG signature (if gpg is installed), installs to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\codebahn, and adds it to your PATH. Override the install location with $env:INSTALL_DIR. Restart your terminal after install.

From source

Install from source (note: source builds skip auto-update):

go install github.com/codebahn/codebahn-cli/cmd/codebahn@latest
Updates

The CLI checks for new versions once every 24 hours and prints a notice when one is available. To update in place:

codebahn update

This downloads the new binary from releases.codebahn.net, verifies its GPG signature and SHA256 checksum, and replaces itself. No external tools required.

To check without installing: codebahn update --check. To silence the periodic check: set CODEBAHN_NO_UPDATE_CHECK=1 or add "check_updates": false to the config file (~/.config/codebahn/config.json, or %APPDATA%\codebahn\config.json on Windows).

Authentication

Log in through the browser. Tokens are saved to ~/.config/codebahn/config.json (%APPDATA%\codebahn\config.json on Windows).

codebahn auth login

codebahn auth status

For CI, set CODEBAHN_TOKEN instead.

Every subcommand accepts --help.

MCP and AI agents

Codebahn has a built-in, hosted MCP server that connects AI coding agents to your repos, issues, pull requests, and CI:

https://codebahn.net/mcp

The tools/ package in this repo is the shared source of truth for both this CLI and the MCP endpoint. 103 tools, one set of types, zero drift.

The server authenticates over OAuth, discovered via /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource. Add the URL to your MCP client and approve the OAuth prompt in your browser on first use.

Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http codebahn https://codebahn.net/mcp
Codex
codex mcp add codebahn --url https://codebahn.net/mcp
VS Code (Copilot)

Create .vscode/mcp.json in your project root:

{

"servers": { "codebahn": { "type": "http", "url": "https://codebahn.net/mcp" } } }

Cursor

Create .cursor/mcp.json in your project root:

{

"mcpServers": { "codebahn": { "type": "http", "url": "https://codebahn.net/mcp" } } }

Release infrastructure

Codebahn is an EU-hosted Git platform. We apply that principle to our own tooling: the CLI's release artifacts are hosted on our own EU infrastructure, not on GitHub or any third-party CDN.

How releases work:

  1. Source code lives here on GitHub (public, for discoverability).
  2. When we tag a release, GitHub Actions cross-compiles binaries for Linux and macOS (amd64 and arm64).
  3. The workflow uploads the binaries, a SHA256 checksums file, and a detached GPG signature to Scaleway Object Storage in fr-par (Paris, France), served at releases.codebahn.net.
  4. codebahn update fetches from releases.codebahn.net. It never contacts GitHub.

Release artifacts are hosted on our own EU infrastructure so the CLI's update check stays within the EU. Source code is on GitHub because it's the standard home for open-source projects. GitHub Actions compiles the public source; no customer data is involved in the build.

Verifying releases

Every release includes a checksums.txt file signed with our GPG release key. The CLI verifies both the signature and the checksum automatically during codebahn update.

To verify manually:

# Import the public key

curl -sS https://codebahn.net/release-signing-key.asc | gpg --import

Download and verify

curl -O https://releases.codebahn.net/cli/v0.1.0/checksums.txt curl -O https://releases.codebahn.net/cli/v0.1.0/checksums.txt.asc gpg --verify checksums.txt.asc checksums.txt

Check the binary

sha256sum -c checksums.txt --ignore-missing

The public key is also embedded in the CLI binary itself, so codebahn update does not need to fetch it separately.

Cutting a release

Tag and push:

git tag v0.1.0

git push origin v0.1.0

The GitHub Actions workflow runs tests, builds with GoReleaser (parallel cross-compilation, GPG signing), and uploads everything to releases.codebahn.net. The latest.json manifest is updated so existing installs pick up the new version within 24 hours.

For a local release (bypassing CI): ./scripts/release.sh v0.1.0. Requires goreleaser, gpg (with the release key), and aws CLI configured for Scaleway.
