mcp-git-chronicle
Provides Git repository analysis tools for AI agents, including churn hotspot detection (files with high additions/deletions and commit volume), co-change coupling analysis (files that historically change together), and recent commit context summaries.

Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@mcp-git-chronicleFind the files with the highest churn in the last 90 days"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
mcp-git-chronicle
A zero-dependency Model Context Protocol (MCP) server providing deep Git archaeology, churn hotspot detection, and co-change coupling analysis to AI coding agents (OpenCode, Cursor, Claude Code).
Why mcp-git-chronicle?
AI coding agents make bad assumptions when editing code without knowing the repository's history:
Volatile Code: They modify fragile files that historically cause high bug rates.
Hidden Coupling: They edit a function or schema in File A, completely unaware that File B and File C always need matching changes.
Missing Context: They fail to understand why a particular architecture decision was made 3 months ago.
mcp-git-chronicle connects your agents directly to local Git plumbing via standard MCP tools over stdio.

Tools Exposed
Tool Name | Parameters | Description |
|
| Identifies top files with highest churn (additions + deletions) and commit volume. |
|
| Calculates semantic file coupling (which files historically commit together with target). |
|
| Summarizes recent commit subjects, hashes, and authors to anchor agent awareness. |
Setup with Coding Agents
OpenCode / Cursor (~/.config/opencode/config.json or .cursor/mcp.json)
