siGit CLI

Official registry Developer tools

Run sigit.si locally: browse repos, search code, manage PRs, issues, and Cloud Sessions.

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).

CARGO package sigit-si-cli

Environment variables

  • SIGIT_TOKEN secret sigit.si session token. Optional: the server otherwise reuses whatever `si auth login` stored.
  • SIGIT_TOOLSETS The environment form of --toolsets, for clients that pass configuration as variables rather than arguments.

Documentation

From the project's README on GitHub, refreshed weekly. Links open on GitHub.

sigit-si-cli

si is the command line interface for sigit.si — sign in, manage repositories, review pull requests, triage issues, search code, and drive Cloud Sessions, all from the terminal. It's the gh of sigit.si.

Install

cargo install --path crates/cli

This installs a binary named si.

Usage

si auth login                     # sign in with your sigit.si account
si repo list                      # your repositories
si repo create my-project --private

# Inside a repo checkout, si infers OWNER/NAME from the sigit.si git remote —
# --repo is only needed when you're not standing in one.
si pr list
si pr view 42
si pr create --title "Fix the thing" --base main

si issue list --state open
si issue create --title "Bug: ..." --body "Steps to reproduce..."

si code search "TODO" --ref main
si code view README.md

si session new --title "Refactor auth"
si billing show

si browse                          # open the current repo on sigit.si
si api repos                       # raw escape hatch for any endpoint

Pass --json to any read command for machine-readable output.

As an MCP server

si mcp serves these same commands to an AI agent as MCP tools over stdio:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sigit": { "command": "si", "args": ["mcp"] }
  }
}

There is nothing to authenticate — the server reuses the token si auth login stored. Point your editor at the directory of a checkout and repository tools default to the repo you're standing in, so the agent can say "list the open pull requests" without naming one; create_pull_request likewise defaults its head to the checked-out branch.

Trim the tool list when an agent doesn't need all of it:

si mcp --read-only                    # drop every tool that writes
si mcp --toolsets repo,issue,pr,code  # or SIGIT_TOOLSETS=repo,issue

Toolsets are account, repo, issue, pr, code, hook, session, and billing. sigit.si also hosts a remote MCP server at /api/v1/mcp for clients that would rather connect over HTTP than spawn a binary.

Environments
si --environment dev repo list          # a local sigit.si server (localhost:3000)
SIGIT_HOST=staging.example.com si repo list

Credentials are stored per-environment in ~/.sigit/token (or ~/.sigit-dev/token). SIGIT_TOKEN overrides the stored token, which is how CI authenticates without an interactive login.

Workspace layout

  • crates/sigit-si-api — a standalone, typed Rust client for the sigit.si JSON API. No CLI dependencies (clap, dialoguer, …); usable from any Rust project that wants to talk to sigit.si, including the desktop app.
  • crates/cli — the si binary: command parsing, terminal rendering, git remote resolution, and credential storage, built on top of sigit-si-api.

Issues, pull requests, and code search have no REST surface on sigit.si yet — they're served over the same MCP (Model Context Protocol) JSON-RPC endpoint the AI agent uses. sigit-si-api speaks that transport internally; it's not visible at the call site.

MCP Registry listings

This repo publishes two entries to the official MCP Registry, one per way of reaching the same tools, so registry-aware clients can add either in one click:

ListingFileWhat it is
si.sigit/cliserver.jsonThis CLI: a cargo package listing that runs si mcp over stdio.
si.sigit/sigitserver-sigit.jsonThe hosted server at sigit.si/api/v1/mcp, a remote Streamable-HTTP listing. The endpoint sigit-si-api talks to, and the official server siGit Code bakes in.

The CLI holds server.json because it's what this repo ships, and that's the filename mcp-publisher defaults to. Sibling listings are named after their own leaf, so the file says which entry it publishes.

Both go out through the release-mcp-registry.yml workflow, and both prove namespace ownership with a DNS TXT record on sigit.si rather than GitHub OIDC, so one credential covers the pair. A package listing has a second hurdle: the registry fetches the crate from crates.io and looks for the mcp-name: si.sigit/cli marker in its README, which is why that marker sits in this file. Crate versions are immutable, so a release that ships without the marker can never be listed, and fixing it costs a new version. The internal setup and release runbook live with the server (private sigit-si repo).

make lint    # cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings
make fmt     # cargo fmt --all
make check   # fmt + lint + test

Frequently asked questions

What is siGit CLI?

Run sigit.si locally: browse repos, search code, manage PRs, issues, and Cloud Sessions.

How do I install siGit CLI?

Follow the installation steps in its documentation, shown on this page and in its repository.

Does siGit CLI need an API key?

Yes. It expects SIGIT_TOKEN, which you set in its configuration.

Is siGit CLI open source?

Its code is public on GitHub, but the repository does not declare a standard license.

Who maintains siGit CLI?

It is published by getsigit. 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.
