Misterdev MCP Server

An autonomous LLM build orchestrator that plans a goal into tasks, edits your code with surgical precision, and verifies every change through correctness gates before it ever reports done. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

People connecting coding agent tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.

Security posture

What to check before giving this server access to your agent - from the registry, GitHub, and our own probes. We don't score safety; we show what's verifiable.

runs as local process (stdio) - runs on your machine with your user's permissions
