opengit-mcp
Search and explore OpenGit’s index of agent-ready open-source repositories via MCP.
Search repos by natural-language query, with optional category/interface filters, ranked by match then OG score (up to 50 results).
Get details for a specific repo by
ownerandname, including description, interfaces, stars, OG score, and links.List all OpenGit categories with repo counts.
View trending repos by weekly star growth, with an optional limit.
Note: the provided schema exposes these 4 tools; the README’s tipping, ecosystem, and builder tools are not present in this schema.
Click on "Deploy Server".
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., "@opengit-mcp find an MCP server I can use to decompile an Android APK"
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.
Quick start

Add a stdio server with command npx and args ["-y", "opengit-mcp"].

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.

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.

TDQS
Scored across 4 tools
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: trending surfaces rising repos, search_repos queries by task, get_repo fetches single-repo details, and list_categories returns taxonomy. There is no meaningful overlap in resource or action, so an agent can easily choose the right tool.
Three of four tools follow a clean verb_noun pattern (search_repos, get_repo, list_categories). 'trending' is a bare gerund with no verb or noun object, a minor deviation but still readable.
Four tools is compact and well-scoped for a focused repo index, with no redundant or bloated operations. Every tool serves a clear role in discovery or inspection.
Core discovery is covered via trending, search_repos, get_repo, and list_categories. However, list_categories exposes categories but there is no tool to list or filter repos within a category, creating a dead end; pagination and comparison workflows are also absent.
