Auto-generate AGENTS.md from your codebase
Auto-generate AGENTS.md from your codebase. That is what the agentsmith mcp server brings to an AI assistant: the same capability, reachable through the Model Context Protocol rather than a separate app or dashboard.
Stop writing AGENTS.md by hand. Run agentsmith and it scans your codebase to generate a comprehensive context file that AI coding tools read automatically.
AGENTS.md is an open standard for giving AI coding assistants context about your project. It's adopted by 60,000+ projects and supported by:
Installation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at @jpoindexter/agent-smith on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.
The server publishes 1 tool. What each one is for:
Request — contactSchema {Plenty of developer tooling servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. Agentsmith's toolset — Request — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by jpoindexter; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.
