What is Code Guardian Studio?
Code Guardian Studio (CCG) is an MCP server that transforms Claude Code into an intelligent refactoring assistant. It scans your codebase, finds hotspots, generates optimization reports, and helps you refactor safely.
Key Stats (from dogfooding CCG on itself)
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Lines Analyzed | 68,000 |
| Files Scanned | 212 |
| Hotspots Found | 20 |
| Analysis Time | < 1 minute |
3-Minute Quickstart
Get your first code analysis in one command:
# Install globally
npm install -g codeguardian-studio
# Run quickstart (auto-initializes + analyzes your code)
ccg quickstart
That's it! The quickstart command will:
- Initialize CCG in your project
- Scan your codebase
- Analyze code complexity and hotspots
- Generate a detailed markdown report
Open the generated report and start fixing hotspots (highest score first).
Want more control? See Manual Setup or read the full Quickstart Guide.

Installation Requirements
CCG uses better-sqlite3 (native SQLite bindings) which requires build tools on your system:
Linux (Ubuntu/Debian)
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential python3
npm install -g codeguardian-studio
macOS
# Install Xcode Command Line Tools
xcode-select --install
npm install -g codeguardian-studio
Windows
# Install Visual Studio Build Tools
# Download from: https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/downloads/
npm install -g codeguardian-studio
Docker
FROM node:20-slim
# Install build dependencies
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y \
build-essential \
python3 \
&& rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
RUN npm install -g codeguardian-studio
Troubleshooting
Error: gyp ERR! stack Error: not found: make
- Solution: Install build tools (see above for your OS)
Error: Module did not self-register
- Solution: Node.js version mismatch. Rebuild with:
npm rebuild better-sqlite3
ARM64 compatibility:
- ✅ Supported on Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3)
- ✅ Supported on Ubuntu ARM64
- May require build from source on some platforms
