Common questions

Is Code Assistant 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 (2.0.0) reached the registry 8 months 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 on your computer.

What can I use instead?

Code Lens MCP Server

Gemini-powered MCP server for automated code review, analysis, and documentation.

Overview

Code Lens is a Model Context Protocol server that uses Google Gemini to analyze diffs, review pull requests, detect code smells, generate documentation, and verify logic. It exposes 13 tools, 7 resources, and 5 prompts over stdio transport.

Key Features

PR review pipeline — generate diffs, assess impact, detect breaking API changes, and produce review summaries with merge recommendations
File analysis — load any source file for refactoring suggestions, code smell detection, documentation generation, and natural-language Q&A
Logic verification — verify algorithms using Gemini's code execution sandbox
Structured outputs — all tools return validated JSON via Zod v4 output schemas
Web search — Google Search with Grounding for up-to-date information retrieval
Task lifecycle support — every tool except load_file can run via MCP tasks with polling, cancellation, and progress updates
