Code Factory MCP Server

Code Factory is a Python package and command-line tool for collecting local software review evidence. It can inspect a repository, run configured checks, and produce receipts for a human to review. It does not certify software, guarantee that defects are absent, or approve a release.

People who work with codex, prompt injection and developer tools and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.

01 · Install Code Factory

Claude Code

claude mcp add zrk222-code-factory -- uvx factoryline-code-factory

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "zrk222-code-factory": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "factoryline-code-factory"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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 no standard license detected - usage rights unclear; check the repo before commercial use

pypi package factoryline-code-factory - check the name against the project README before installing (PyPI has no namespace ownership)

registry namespace io.github.zrk222 is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner

06 · Code Factory FAQ

What is Code Factory?

Code Factory is a Python package and command-line tool for collecting local software review evidence. It can inspect a repository, run configured checks, and produce receipts for a human to review. It does not certify software, guarantee that defects are absent, or approve a release.

Is Code Factory still maintained?

Yes - as of 2026-09-30, its last commit was 2026-09-28 and it shipped 10+ releases in the last 90 days. We re-verify nightly.

How do I install Code Factory?

Run `uvx factoryline-code-factory`. You can also paste the ready-made client config above.

Does Code Factory run locally?

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