Gitworthy MCP Server

The decision layer before a coding agent starts work. Gitworthy helps coding agents scout, rank, and preflight software work before they spend cycles implementing it. It finds the strongest candidates, checks whether the work is already handled or blocked, and returns evidence-backed ACT , VERIFY , or SKIP decisions for each target. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.
