🦉 Smart Context MCP Server

Smart Context MCP is a local Model Context Protocol (MCP) server acting as a Universal Context Engine for AI Coding Agents (Cline, Roo Code, Claude Code, Cursor, Continue.dev, Codex, etc.).

It reduces token consumption for powerful LLMs (Strong LLMs) by 50%–70% by intelligently filtering code context, tracking Git Delta changes, and building high-performance local indexes using SQLite and Tree-sitter AST parsing.

Built following the ai-read-first specification & architecture principles for AI-assisted software development.

🌟 Key Features

Smart Token Optimization: Filters out irrelevant code files and sends only the precise context required for each prompt.
Git Delta Detection: Inspects git status and git diff to prioritize active workspace files.
SQLite Local Storage: Fast symbol and Repo Map querying (< 2ms) without high RAM overhead.
Multi-Project Management: Dynamically filters and tracks AST symbols per project.
Flexible Low AI Integration: Supports intent analysis using cheap or local AI providers (Ollama Nemotron, Groq Cloud, Anthropic Claude, OpenAI, Google Gemini Flash).
Web Dashboard UI: Built-in web administration dashboard at http://localhost:3333 for settings, tooltips, and SQLite cache exploration.

💾 Local Storage & Database Locations

Smart Context MCP persists user settings and indexed workspace data locally in your home directory across operating systems:

Data Type	macOS / Linux Path	Windows Path
⚙️ User Configuration	`~/.smart-context/config.json`	`%USERPROFILE%\.smart-context\config.json`
📦 SQLite Cache Database	`~/.smart-context/cache.db`	`%USERPROFILE%\.smart-context\cache.db`

(You can customize the cache database path anytime via the Web Dashboard settings modal).

⚡ Quick Start (Pre-built Release — No Build Required)

End-users do not need to install Node.js build tools or run npm:

Download the pre-built release package: smart-context-mcp-v1.0.0.zip (from the release/ folder or GitHub Releases).
Unzip smart-context-mcp-v1.0.0.zip into your desired folder.
Configure your AI Client to point to the executable launcher smart-context-mcp:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "smart-context": {
      "command": "/path/to/unzipped/smart-context-mcp-release/smart-context-mcp",
      "args": []
    }
  }
}
