Installation

npx mcp-gerrit-code-review

Or install globally:

npm install -g mcp-gerrit-code-review

Option 2: Build from source

git clone https://github.com/coveyjorjet/mcp-gerrit-code-review.git
cd mcp-gerrit-code-review
npm install && npm run build

Configuration

HTTP Transport (Default)

Set via environment variables:

export GERRIT_URL=https://gerrit.example.com
export GERRIT_USERNAME=your-username
export GERRIT_PASSWORD=your-http-password

Or use ~/.netrc:

machine gerrit.example.com
  login your-username
  password your-http-password

SSH Transport

Set transport mode and SSH connection details:

export GERRIT_TRANSPORT=ssh
export GERRIT_SSH_HOST=gerrit.example.com
export GERRIT_SSH_USER=your-username
export GERRIT_SSH_PORT=29418  # optional, defaults to 29418
export GERRIT_SSH_KEY=~/.ssh/id_rsa  # optional, defaults to ~/.ssh/id_rsa
export GERRIT_SSH_KEY_PASSPHRASE=your-passphrase  # optional

Or use SSH URL format in GERRIT_URL:

export GERRIT_TRANSPORT=ssh
export GERRIT_URL=ssh://your-username@gerrit.example.com:29418

SSH credentials are resolved from ~/.netrc for username if not specified.
