OpenGit
Search agent-ready open source repos by task, interface, ecosystem and OG score.
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).
claude mcp add --transport http opengit 'https://opengit.cc/mcp'
{
"mcpServers": {
"opengit": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://opengit.cc/mcp"
}
}
}
opengit-mcpclaude mcp add opengit -- npx -y opengit-mcp@0.1.1
{
"mcpServers": {
"opengit": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"opengit-mcp@0.1.1"
]
}
}
}

opengit-mcp
MCP server for OpenGit, the index of open source that agents can use.
Let your agent find the right tool for a task, by what it does, how it can be called and its OG score.
Quick start
Claude Code
claude mcp add opengit -- npx -y opengit-mcp
Cursor
~/.cursor/mcp.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"opengit": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "opengit-mcp"] }
}
}
Codex
~/.codex/config.toml
[mcp_servers.opengit]
command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "opengit-mcp"]
Claude Desktop, Windsurf and other MCP clients
Add a stdio server with command npx and args ["-y", "opengit-mcp"].

Clients that support Streamable HTTP can skip the package and connect straight to:

Tools
| Tool | Arguments | What it does |
|---|---|---|
search_repos | query, category?, interface?, ecosystem?, claimed?, limit? | Find repos for a task, ranked by match and then OG score |
get_repo | owner, name | Description, interfaces, stars, OG score, ecosystems, license, links, and a claimed repo's payout address |
tip_repo | owner, name, amount_usd?, network? | An x402 link that tips a claimed repo, paid straight to its maintainer |
list_categories | none | Every category in the index, with repo counts |
list_ecosystems | none | Chains in the index (Solana, Base, Robinhood Chain), with repo counts |
list_builders | ecosystem? | Featured builders, the chains they build on and the repos they ship |
trending | limit?, ecosystem? | Fastest-rising repos by stars gained this week |
interface is one of MCP, CLI, Skill, Plugin, SDK, API, App, Harness, Library.
ecosystem is one of solana, base, robinhood-chain.
The tools come from the hosted server, so new ones show up without updating this package.
Try asking your agent:
Find me an MCP I can use to decompile an Android APK.
What are the top security audit tools for coding agents right now?
Which agent kits and MCPs are there for Solana?
Who are the featured builders on Base, and what do they ship?
Tip $0.50 to the maintainers of the MCP servers I used today.
Tipping with x402
Claimed repos (those with an opengit.json payout address) can be tipped by agents. tip_repo returns a link such as https://opengit.cc/pay/<owner>/<repo>?amount=1, which answers 402 Payment Required with options on Robinhood Chain (USDG), Base (USDC) and Solana (USDC). Pay it with any x402 client or agent wallet: the payment settles straight to the maintainer, and OpenGit holds nothing.
How it works
opengit-mcp is a small stdio bridge with no dependencies. It forwards each MCP message to the hosted OpenGit server at https://opengit.cc/mcp and writes the replies back, so the tools always match the live index. Nothing about your project or files is sent; only the tool calls your agent makes.
| Variable | Default | |
|---|---|---|
OPENGIT_MCP_URL | https://opengit.cc/mcp | Upstream server |
OPENGIT_TIMEOUT_MS | 30000 | Request timeout |
Requires Node.js 18.17 or later.
What is OpenGit?
OpenGit lists, rates and surfaces open source for AI agents (4,700+ repos and growing). A collector indexes agent-ready repos from GitHub every 15 minutes, and every repo gets an OG score from how an agent can call it and how fast it is moving. Repos are grouped by category and by ecosystem (Solana, Base, Robinhood Chain), with crypto repos checked for bots, drainers and fake copies before they are listed. Maintainers claim their repo by adding an opengit.json with their wallet (opengit.cc/claim), and then people and agents can tip them directly.

Frequently asked questions
What is OpenGit?
Search agent-ready open source repos by task, interface, ecosystem and OG score.
How do I install OpenGit?
It runs as a remote server. In Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http opengit 'https://opengit.cc/mcp'. For other clients, paste the JSON configuration from this page into their MCP settings.
Does OpenGit need an API key?
Its registry entry lists no required key or secret. Some features may still need an account with the service it connects to.
Is OpenGit open source?
Yes. Its code is on GitHub under the MIT license.
Who maintains OpenGit?
It is published by opengitteam. AI.tn lists it but does not maintain or endorse it.
From the official MCP Registry. Listing is not an endorsement: review a server's code and permissions before giving it access to your data.
