NEAT MCP Server

NEAT solves the AI coding context problem. It constructs a live deterministic model of your codebase - static code and live runtime behavior fused into one graph - and hands your AI agents the grounded, full-stack context they need to query, code, debug, and write rules against it. This achieves the following: Coding LLMs hallucinate less & are more accurate.

People who work with architecture, graph theory and software engineering and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.

01 · Install NEAT

before you install - you'll need

Set NEAT_AUTH_TOKEN, OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT, OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS, NEAT_AUTH_PROXY before connecting. NEAT_CORE_URL is optional or environment-specific per the README.

Claude Code

claude mcp add neat-technologies-neat -- npx -y @neat.is/mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "neat-technologies-neat": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@neat.is/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

Using another client? Same JSON, different key

02 · Evidence

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

license Apache-2.0 - declared in the repository

npm package @neat.is/mcp - the @neat.is scope differs from the repo owner (neat-technologies); confirm it's the project's official package

registry namespace io.github.neat-technologies is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner

Latest releases

v0.10.1 · 2026-09-29

A bare npx neat.is in a project that NEAT hasn't met yet now opens the front door every time: the wordmark, then a choice you move through with the arrow keys - log in to hosted NEAT, or self-host and take a copy-paste…

v0.10.0 · 2026-09-25

This is the hosted-connectors release, and it earns the minor: a hosted project now reaches a whole cloud from a single consent, and keeps what it learned across restarts. One Google grant fans out to Firebase, Cloud…

v0.9.21 · 2026-09-25

A hosted tenant now keeps its graph across restarts and reaches every GCP surface from one grant. When a daemon instance comes up fresh - after a redeploy, a scale-to-zero, a crash - it re-extracts every repository…

What is NEAT?

Is NEAT still maintained?

Yes - as of 2026-09-30, its last commit was 2026-09-29 and it shipped 10+ releases in the last 90 days. We re-verify nightly.

How do I install NEAT?

Run `npx -y @neat.is/mcp`. The README documents 5 environment variables (NEAT_CORE_URL, NEAT_AUTH_TOKEN, OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT…) to set first. Set NEAT_AUTH_TOKEN, OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT, OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS, NEAT_AUTH_PROXY before connecting. NEAT_CORE_URL is optional or environment-specific per the README. You can also paste the ready-made client config above.

Does NEAT run locally?

Yes - it's a stdio server: it runs on your machine (via npx) with your user's permissions. Your data stays local unless the server itself calls external APIs.
