Official registry Developer tools

Write, type-check and run Mort code, with language spec and stdlib lookup.

Install

Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).

PYPI package mort-mcp
Claude Code
claude mcp add mort-mcp -e 'MORT_HOME=<MORT_HOME>' -- uvx mort-mcp==0.1.0
JSON configuration (Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code)

            ],
            "env": {

            }

mort-mcp

Let an AI agent write a language it has never seen.

Mort is a statically typed systems language that compiles to C. It's the language MORT OS is written in. No model has Mort in its training data, so an agent asked to write it will guess Rust-like syntax and get it wrong.

mort-mcp gives the agent what a human newcomer would use: a fast type checker with precise errors, a way to run programs, the language spec to search, and the exact signatures of the standard library.

Install

You need the Mort compiler. The simplest setup is a checkout, which also brings the docs and examples:

git clone https://github.com/0xmortuex/Mort
pip install mort-mcp ziglang     # ziglang = zero-install C backend for mort_run
claude mcp add mort --env MORT_HOME=/path/to/Mort -- mort-mcp

Without MORT_HOME, mort-mcp uses a mortc on your PATH (pip install git+https://github.com/0xmortuex/Mort). Checking, running and std lookup all work that way. mort_docs and mort_examples need the checkout.

Tools

ToolWhat it does
mort_checkType-check source text or files without building. Fast, and needs no C compiler. Returns diagnostics as file:line:col with the source line.
mort_runCompile and run, with stdin, args and a timeout. Reports output and exit code.
mort_emit_cShow the generated C. freestanding=True shows the kernel-mode output.
mort_formatFormat with the official formatter (mortc fmt).
mort_stdList std modules, or show one module's public API: exact signatures, struct fields and doc comments.
mort_docsSearch the language specification and reference docs, e.g. "resource struct cleanup" or "integer overflow".
mort_examplesList or read the compiler's example programs.
mort_versionCompiler and language version, and where the compiler was found.

Every tool calls mortc through its command-line interface, and reads std signatures and docs from the installed compiler. Answers therefore match the version you're running, even as the language changes.

Tests

pip install ".[test]" "ruff==0.16.0" "mypy==2.3.0" ziglang
ruff check src tests && mypy --strict src
MORT_HOME=/path/to/Mort pytest tests

Without MORT_HOME, only the unit tests and the MCP handshake test run. CI checks out the latest Mort and also runs every night, so a change to the compiler's CLI or docs layout shows up as a failing build.
