Synaptic Code Intelligence MCP Server

Synaptic is a source-grounded code maintenance platform built around three connected systems: API maintenance, repository memory, and a persistent knowledge graph. Together they let an engineer or AI assistant understand what the code does, remember what has happened to it, and make bounded repairs without guessing. It is available as a remote MCP endpoint.

Teams that want a hosted coding agent endpoint instead of running a local process. The project is written in Rust.

01 · Install Synaptic Code Intelligence

Claude Code

claude mcp add colinvaughn-synaptic --transport http https://synapticgraph.com/api/mcp/projects/{project_id}

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config
