What it does

Repowise provides comprehensive codebase intelligence for AI coding agents by analyzing and indexing entire repositories. It creates dependency graphs, tracks git history, evaluates code health and defect risk, generates documentation, and captures architectural decisions. The tool serves these insights through 9 task-shaped MCP (Model Context Protocol) tools designed to enhance AI-assisted development workflows.

How to set up

Repowise runs as an MCP server and can be deployed 100% locally on your machine or through a hosted option. Installation requires configuring it as an MCP server in compatible AI platforms (Claude, ChatGPT via MCP support). Clone or install the repowise server, configure it to point to your repository, and connect it through your preferred AI platform's MCP integration settings.
