Codehabits

A local MCP server that gives AI coding agents team conventions, anti-patterns and domain knowledge stored in a project's .codehabits/ directory.

What you can do

Surfaces team conventions from the project's .codehabits/ directory to the assistant as it works on code. Shares recorded anti-patterns so the assistant can avoid known bad approaches. Provides domain knowledge kept alongside the codebase for context during coding tasks. Runs locally over stdio, so the assistant reads this project-level guidance directly from the repository.

When to use it

Useful when a team keeps its coding standards, pitfalls and domain notes in .codehabits/ and wants an AI coding agent to follow them instead of generic defaults. Best for projects that already maintain such a directory.

Requirements

Runs as a local process over stdio, installed from the npm package @codehabits/mcp, so Node.js and npm are needed. The project should contain a .codehabits/ directory with the conventions and knowledge to expose. No authentication, environment variables or headers are declared.
