GitDealFlow — GitHub signals for startup investors

io.github.kindrat86Published by GitHub account kindrat86v2.2.2Updated Oct 24, 2026

GitHub engineering acceleration signals for venture deal flow across 15 sectors.

The publisher's own server: SentientData Market Scan

Overview

AI-generated overview

A local MCP server that lets an assistant search GitHub engineering-acceleration signals on 350+ startups across 15 sectors for venture deal flow.

What you can do
Search and rank startups by engineering acceleration, overall or filtered by sector, stage, geography or signal type, and shortlist the strongest signals. Retrieve a single startup's signal profile, compare two to five startups side by side, and get a scored funding-likelihood claim with its evidence chain. Pull a cited public-source diligence dossier or a Scout Score from a GitHub username. Read dataset metadata, refresh dates and methodology notes, or use paid tools for enriched dossiers, investment theses and multi-cohort sector scans.
When to use it
Useful for angels, scouts and technical operators who want early traction signals from GitHub activity before they appear in conventional deal flow, and for quick sector scans, startup comparisons or diligence lookups inside an assistant.
Requirements
Runs as a local process via npx from the npm package @gitdealflow/mcp-signal, so Node.js is needed. The free tools need no API key or account. Paid tools cost €0.10 per call and require credits; the hosted remote endpoint also offers a €0.19 per-call tool. Network access to the provider's public API is required.
Before you install
Three tools are paid at €0.10 per call and require purchased credits, and the remote endpoint's deep-signal tool costs €0.19 per call, so calls can spend money. All listed tools are described as read-only and idempotent, but queries and startup names are sent to the provider's API. Funding predictions and Scout Scores are scored estimates, not verified facts.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open GitDealFlow — GitHub signals for startup investors in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. 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.

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

VC Deal Flow Signal — MCP Server

Search startup engineering acceleration signals directly from your AI assistant.

[Glama A-Tier]

Glama A-Tier (4.9 / 5.0). 13 tools — 10 free, no API key. One-line install for Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, and Continue via npx -y @gitdealflow/mcp-signal.

[Claude querying VC Deal Flow Signal MCP server]

Tracks commit velocity, contributor growth, and repository expansion across 15 sectors and 350+ startups. Built for angels, scouts, and technical operators looking for traction signals before they show up in traditional deal flow.

Install

Add to your Claude Desktop config (claude_desktop_config.json):

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "vc-deal-flow-signal": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "@gitdealflow/mcp-signal"]    }  }}

Or for Claude Code (.mcp.json in project root):

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "vc-deal-flow-signal": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "@gitdealflow/mcp-signal"]    }  }}

Tools

All tools are read-only, idempotent, and fetch live data from the public API (no auth required). Responses include both human-readable text and structured JSON (structuredContent) matching each tool's outputSchema.

Free tools (10) — no API key, no account:

ToolInputReturns

get_scout_receiptsGitHub usernameScout Score (0–100) computed from public starring history, cross-referenced against tracked startups.

Paid agent tools (3) — €0.10 per call, credits at signals.gitdealflow.com/agents/credits:

ToolReturns
research_companyEnriched dossier for one tracked startup: full signal row, sector rank, top-5 sector peers, citation.
compose_thesisStructured investment thesis: snapshot, signal type, sector rank, data-derived strengths, peer comparables.
deep_dive_scanMulti-cohort sector scan: tracked/breakout/cooling counts, top-10 by velocity, breakout and cold lists.

The hosted remote endpoint (https://signals.gitdealflow.com/api/mcp/rpc, streamable-http) additionally exposes share_result (free) and get_deep_signal (€0.19/call).

Supported sectors: healthcare, edtech, ecommerce-infrastructure, supply-chain, web3, enterprise-saas, data-infrastructure, robotics, legal-tech, hr-tech, proptech, agtech, gaming, space-tech, social-community.

Data

All data is sourced live from the deal flow data API public API. No API key required. Updated weekly on Mondays.

Complementary: the Scout Game

If you want to put your own eye on the line, there's a prediction game on top of the same dataset at signals.gitdealflow.com/predict. Call which tracked startups raise a round in the next 6 months, earn points when your calls resolve, climb a public rank ladder from Curious to Oracle. Free tier: 3 predictions per month. Paid: 10 per month. Leaderboard: signals.gitdealflow.com/leaderboard.

Complementary: two Chrome extensions

Same dataset, different surfaces. Install one or both:

  • VC Deal Flow Signal — Crunchbase + Wellfound badge: a green "Accelerating" engineering-acceleration badge appears inline on any Crunchbase or Wellfound startup profile where the GitHub data is interesting. For investors who research deals in browser tabs.
  • VC GitHub Lookup — Startup Signals on Hover (NEW, May 2026): hover any GitHub repo or org link to see commit velocity (14d), velocity change vs prior period, contributor count and growth, signal type, and stage estimate. Chip injected on direct repo and org page loads. Toolbar opens a manual lookup form for any GitHub URL. For developer-investors who live on GitHub.

Both are free in perpetuity. Manifest V3, no analytics, no account.
