Questions

What is the GitHits MCP server?

CLI & MCP for GitHits - The Code Context Layer for AI Coding Agents

What tools does GitHits expose?

8 in total: 7 read-only, 1 that write, and 0 that can delete or overwrite. Every one is listed on this page with its risk.

Is GitHits safe to connect to an agent?

No — not without reading the findings first. The audit graded it F (59/100) and found 2 critical or high issues in the source. Each one is listed on this page with the file and line it is on.

What credentials does GitHits need?

It reads ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, GITHITS_API_TOKEN, GITHITS_AUTH_STORAGE and OPENAI_API_KEY from the environment. Give it a token scoped to the least it needs — an agent that can be talked into calling a tool can be talked into calling it with your credentials.

How does GitHits run?

It speaks stdio and streamable-http, so it runs as a local process your client starts. It is published on npm as @githits/mcp at 0.27.1.

How current is this page?

The grade is for one exact copy of the source (56c51cf464ff), read on 2026-10-07. The repository is watched and re-audited when it changes.
