Catches files and C# members you forgot to change, learned from your repo's git history
Overview
A local MCP server that learns from git history which files change together and warns an AI coding agent when an edit leaves a companion file untouched.
- What you can do
- Check edits for missing companion files (holes) using co-change patterns learned from git history, with confidence scores and example commits as proof. Report learned file-pair statistics so you can see which couplings are strong enough to block a commit. Install git pre-commit and Claude Code Stop hooks so the check runs deterministically before a commit. File-level rules work on any language; C# repos also get method-level rules and cosmetic-edit filtering, and JSON files get key-level noise filtering.
- When to use it
- Useful when an AI coding agent edits a repository and may forget related files such as tests, and you want an automatic, history-based reminder. Also fits teams that want a pre-commit gate on strongly coupled file pairs.
- Requirements
- Runs as a local process via a .NET tool (dotnet tool execute); requires the .NET SDK 10 or later. The analyzed repository must have git history; an index is kept in a .unwritten/ directory. No server, subscription, tokens, environment variables or headers are declared.
Installation
In SourceWeft
- Open Unwritten 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.

Catch the files you — or your AI agent — forgot to change. Unwritten learns
from your git history which files usually change together and warns when one is
missing from your edit: "you changed OrderService.cs but not
OrderServiceTests.cs, and they change together 94% of the time." It calls
these missing companions holes, and every warning comes with its confidence
score and real example commits as proof.
It runs as an MCP server so AI coding agents (Claude Code, Copilot) can check
their own edits mid-session, and as a CLI for pre-commit hooks.
One dotnet tool execute, an index in .unwritten/, no server, no subscription,
no tokens.
Works on any language. File-level rules only need git history, so hole detection works the same on Python, TypeScript, Go, or mixed repos. C# repos additionally get method-level rules and cosmetic-edit filtering; JSON files get key-level noise filtering. Running the tool requires the .NET SDK (10+), but the repos it analyzes can be anything.
Quick start
From your repo's root:
- Warm up the index (optional — every command builds it on first use and keeps it current by itself; this just makes the first query fast).
- Register as an MCP server (Claude Code):
- (Recommended if using Claude Code) Make the check deterministic — a git pre-commit hook and a Claude Code Stop hook that feeds failing holes back to the agent before a commit is made:
That's it — your agent can now call check_holes after editing, and the hooks
catch the cases where it forgets to.

stats shows what the tool has learned — here, one file pair coupled strongly
enough (confidence ≥ 0.7) to block a commit if one side is missing:
[Index stats showing one high-confidence file pair]
After editing one file of that pair, check warns that its companion is
missing and spells out the three ways to resolve it — update the companion,
commit anyway, or mute the rule:

With the pre-commit hook installed, the same check runs automatically on every commit and blocks it while the companion is still missing:
