Rpg Encoder MCP Server

Give your AI agent a brain for your codebase. AI coding agents waste most of their tool calls fumbling through your codebase with grep, cat, find, and file reads. rpg-encoder fixes that. It builds a semantic graph of your code with Tree-sitter - not just what calls what, but what every function does - and gives your AI assistant whole-repo understanding via MCP in a single tool call.

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

01 · Install Rpg Encoder

Claude Code

claude mcp add userfrm-rpg-encoder -- npx -y rpg-encoder

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "userfrm-rpg-encoder": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "rpg-encoder"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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

Using another client? Same JSON, different key
