Aptu Coder MCP Server
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) code-intelligence server that gives AI coding agents pre-parsed symbol tables and call graphs instead of raw file bytes, cutting token usage by up to 59% (see Benchmarks ). OpenSSF silver certified: fewer than 1% of open source projects reach this level. Its 7 documented tools cluster into analyze, update, run & execute.
People who work with code analysis, developer tools and tree sitter and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Rust.

03 · What Aptu Coder can do
Prose above is summarized from the project's README and registry record - no invented capabilities.
What you can build
With this server connected, an agent can call graph for a named symbol across a directory, create or overwrite a file, replace a unique exact text block or all non-overlapping occurrences (replace_all=true), and run a shell command.
Capability map
Tools grouped from the project's README - what Aptu Coder lets an agent do.
Analyze
4 tools - e.g. Directory tree with LOC, function, and class counts; respects .gitignore; file paths in the output are relative to the working directory; Functions, classes, and imports with signatures and line ranges…

run & execute
1 tool - e.g. Run a shell command; returns stdout, stderr, exit code; output capped and filtered; the command is killed when the request is cancelled; server-owned post-exit

v0.37.0 · 2026-09-29
A benchmarks-focused release: the v19 anchor-adjudication protocol and calibration harness, plus a real product fix it uncovered - call-graph cache keys now include the symbol and mode. 🧪 · Fixed · Correct call-graph…
v0.36.1 · 2026-09-26
A tight patch release, almost entirely about shrinking the tool surface's text: descriptions across tools and output schemas got leaner and no longer duplicate what parameter docs already say. 🪶 · Changed · Leaner…
v0.36.0 · 2026-09-26
This release is mostly cleanup under the hood: every tool's mirrored structuredContent/output schema is gone in favor of a single typed output, plus a friendlier CLI. 🧹 · Changed · One output per tool: mirrored…
