Overview
Local read-only MCP sidecar that parses COBOL source and returns heuristic metrics, business rules and migration plans for legacy modernization.
- What you can do
- Parse COBOL program source text and return heuristic metrics
- Identify business rules embedded in the supplied COBOL code
- Estimate migration complexity and plan migration phases
- Generate a test harness for the analyzed program
- All tools read source you already hold and are described as read-only, never writing to core, ledger or CICS systems
- When to use it
- Useful when you are assessing or planning a COBOL-to-modern-stack migration and want an assistant to summarize programs, surface business rules and sketch phases and test scaffolding from source files you provide. It is a measurement aid, not a certified migration product.
- Requirements
- Runs locally over stdio as a Python package (pip install cobol-bridge-mcp, or uvx cobol-bridge-mcp). No authentication, environment variables or headers are declared. You supply the COBOL source text yourself.
Installation
In SourceWeft
- Open Cobol Bridge Mcp 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.

Score
50% of the applicable checks met
How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
- Reached in the last 30 days25 pts
Keep the endpoint answering the MCP handshake; SourceWeft probes it every 30 days.
- Auth declared10 pts
Declare the credential headers in the registry entry, or keep the endpoint answering the probe so its auth can be classified.
