Local-first MCP runtime for coding agents with safe workspace access, AST/LSP navigation, and Git.
Overview
A local MCP runtime that gives coding agents bounded filesystem, AST/LSP navigation, and Git access to a codebase.
- What you can do
- my-pi runs as a local stdio MCP server exposing 13 tools in four groups: filesystem operations (fs_read, fs_write, fs_patch, fs_stat), search and workspace info (search, workspace_info), AST and language-server navigation (ast_search, lsp_status, lsp_symbols, lsp_navigate, lsp_diagnostics), and Git context (vcs_status, vcs_diff). Writes can be guarded by content fingerprints rather than blind overwrites. AST search covers TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, Rust, and Go; LSP features cover TypeScript, Python, Rust, and Go when compatible language servers are installed.
- When to use it
- Use it when a coding agent needs controlled access to a real local codebase instead of an unrestricted shell, for example to read and patch files, navigate symbols and definitions, or inspect Git status and diffs. It suits local development environments that support MCP, such as Claude Code, Cursor, or OpenCode.
- Requirements
- Node.js 24.0.0 or newer; installed globally via npm or run with npx. A workspace must be given with --workspace or the MY_PI_WORKSPACE_ROOT environment variable, otherwise startup fails closed. Desktop only; no authentication is declared. Language-server features need compatible language-server executables on the host.
Installation
In SourceWeft
- Open my-pi in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
- Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.
Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.
Other MCP clients
Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

my-pi is a local-first Model Context Protocol (MCP) runtime for coding agents that need controlled access to a real codebase without handing the agent an unrestricted shell.
It combines bounded filesystem operations, content-preconditioned writes, structural AST search, language-server navigation, Git status/diff tooling, and an explicit read-only-by-default security model behind one stdio MCP server.
Why my-pi
- Local-first: source code and detailed workspace state stay on the host.
- Read-only by default: mutation and language-server process startup require explicit elevation.
- Safer writes: updates can be guarded by content fingerprints instead of blind overwrites.
- Code-aware navigation: Tree-Sitter AST search plus LSP symbols, definitions, references, hover, and diagnostics.
- Git-aware context: bounded status and diff capabilities without exposing an unrestricted command runner.
- Host-neutral: designed for MCP-capable coding environments including Claude Code, Cursor, and OpenCode.
Install and run
Requires Node.js >=24.0.0.
Or inspect a generated host configuration without a global install:
The server starts in the read-only security profile. Enable writes and language-server processes only for a trusted workspace:
Starting without --workspace or MY_PI_WORKSPACE_ROOT fails closed. Use --allow-cwd only as an intentional opt-in to the current directory.
Core MCP capabilities
The stable alpha surface exposes 13 tools across four groups:
- Filesystem:
fs_read,fs_write,fs_patch,fs_stat - Search/workspace:
search,workspace_info - AST/LSP:
ast_search,lsp_status,lsp_symbols,lsp_navigate,lsp_diagnostics - Git:
vcs_status,vcs_diff
Structural AST search supports TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, Rust, and Go. LSP integrations support TypeScript, Python, Rust, and Go when compatible language-server executables are available on the host.
Generate host configuration
Security model
my-pi uses explicit workspace authority and pre-read sensitive-path policy. The default profile is intentionally restrictive; trusted mode is an explicit opt-in for mutation and language-server processes.
Review the full security model before enabling trusted mode:

Project status
Current release channel: alpha. The package is intended for evaluation and controlled local development while coordination/evaluation features under the repository's "Production Next" work remain experimental.

The primary executable is my-pi-mcp; ccr-mcp is retained as a compatibility alias.
