Offline static correctness MCP server for Godot 4.x GDScript projects

A Model Context Protocol server (and gdcorrect CLI) that statically checks the correctness of Godot 4.x GDScript projects. It runs headless, offline, and in CI — it never launches the editor, never needs a running Godot instance, and never touches the network at runtime.

Three pillars

1. GDScript linting — anti-pattern detection via a committed tree-sitter grammar (WASM). Rules like delta-misuse, get-node-in-process, missing-onready, untyped-declaration, await-misuse, stringly-nodepath, connect-without-disconnect, float-grid-equality. See docs/lint.md.

2. Cross-version API lookup & diff — query classes/methods/properties/signals and diff the API between Godot 4.4 and 4.5, from committed offline symbol databases. See docs/symbol-db.md.

3. Scene / resource / registry analysis — validate .tscn, .tres, and project.godot, including deep validation of data-driven .tres registries (the dangling-path check). See docs/scenes.md.

Non-goals

• No live bridge. It does not connect to a running editor or game.

• No editor plugin. Nothing to install inside Godot.

• No C#. GDScript only.

• Nothing older than Godot 4.4. Symbol data is pinned to 4.4 and 4.5.

This is deliberately the complement to the live-session Godot MCP tools: it is the one you run in CI and headless pipelines.

Installation

As an MCP server (Claude Desktop / Cursor mcpServers config):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "godot-correctness": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@tmhs/godot-correctness-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

As a CLI:

npx -y @tmhs/godot-correctness-mcp gdcorrect lint . --format json

MCP surface

Tools: server_info; api_symbol_lookup, api_class_summary, api_diff; lint_file, lint_project; validate_scenes, validate_project_config, validate_registries, project_report.

Resources: curated GDScript skill snippets under skill:// (data-driven resources, signal hygiene, typed GDScript, preload vs load).

CLI and CI

gdcorrect <command> <projectPath> [--format json|pretty], where <command> is lint, validate-scenes, validate-project, validate-registries, or report. JSON is the primary, machine-readable format. Exit codes: 0 clean, 1 on any error-severity finding, 2 on tool failure.

Configuration

Place godot-correctness.config.json at your project root (see godot-correctness.config.example.json): enable/disable rules, override severities, set include/exclude globs, and declare registryDirs / pathPropertyPatterns for registry validation. Full reference in docs/lint.md and docs/scenes.md.

Symbol database regeneration

The API pillar reads committed gzipped symbol DBs generated locally from pinned Godot binaries (CI validates them but never runs Godot). Regeneration procedure: docs/symbol-db.md.
