What is the Anchor MCP Server?

MCP stdio server that serves local repo memory and org memory from GitHub PR history, code, tests, regressions, and cross-repo impact to AI coding agents.

What you get

Anchor is a local-first, MCP-compatible memory tool that indexes GitHub PR history, local code, tests, regressions, architecture patterns, team rules, and cross-repo impact so AI coding agents can make safer code changes with evidence-backed context.

  • MCP context before edits — anchor_get_context gives Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, VS Code, Antigravity, and generic MCP clients concise, ranked, cited repo and org memory before non-trivial changes
  • GitHub PR history as evidence — merged PR bodies, review comments, issue comments, commits, labels, and regressions become searchable local context
  • Local codebase indexing — current files, symbols, imports, tests, architecture patterns, and test commands are indexed into SQLite
  • Org memory for AI agents — allowlisted repos can be cloned locally and linked through imports, packages, API consumers, schemas, and regressions
  • No SaaS, no CLI telemetry — indexes stay on your machine, GitHub access is read-only, and Anchor does not call remote LLM APIs
