# CodeBank MCP Server

This is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for CodeBank, allowing AI agents to interact with code bases and generate code bank summaries.

## Installation

Make sure you have Rust and Cargo installed, then install the `cb-mcp` binary by running:

```bash
cargo install codebank
```

The binary will be in `~/.cargo/bin/cb-mcp`.

## Usage

### Running as an MCP Server

#### STDIO Mode

Please add the following to your the mcp config of cursor or claude:

```json
"cb-mcp": {
  "command": "/Path/to/cb-mcp",
  "args": [
    "stdio"
  ]
}
```

Your mcp client will run the following command (if they didn't, you can run it manually):

```bash
cb-mcp stdio
```

This allows AI agents to interact with the server through standard input/output.

#### SSE Mode

Please add the following to your the mcp config of cursor or claude:

```json
"cb-mcp": {
      "url": "http://localhost:3000/sse"
    }
```

Run as an MCP server in SSE (Server-Sent Events) mode on a specific port:

```bash
cb-mcp sse --port 3000
```

This starts a web server that AI agents can interact with.

## Server API

When running in server mode, the following tools are available to AI agents:

- `gen`: Generate code bank from source code
- `gen_file`: Generate code bank and save to file

## Strategies

CodeBank supports different generation strategies:

- `default`: Includes all code from the specified path
- `summary`: Includes only public interfaces, function signatures without bodies
- `no-tests`: Includes all code except test cases
