Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Repository Analysis MCP for analyzing GitHub repositories

Readme

Repository Analysis MCP for Cursor

This is a custom MCP (Model Control Protocol) implementation for analyzing GitHub repositories directly in Cursor.

Features

  • Get basic repository information
  • Retrieve file contents from repositories
  • List files in directories
  • Analyze repository architecture and dependencies

Setup Instructions

  1. Install Dependencies:

    npm install
  2. Configure GitHub Token:

    • Create a GitHub personal access token with repo scope
    • Update the GITHUB_TOKEN in mcp-config.json with your token
  3. Configure Repositories:

    • Set SOURCE_REPO to the main repository you want to analyze (format: owner/repo)
    • Set TARGET_REPOS to comma-separated list of repositories to compare (format: owner/repo1,owner/repo2)

Adding to Cursor

  1. Open Cursor
  2. Go to Settings > MCPs
  3. Click "Add MCP"
  4. Select "Import from file"
  5. Choose the mcp-config.json file from this directory

Available Tools

  • get_repo_info: Get basic information about a GitHub repository
  • get_file_content: Get the content of a file from a GitHub repository
  • list_files: List files in a directory of a GitHub repository
  • analyze_repository: Analyze a GitHub repository for patterns and architecture

Example Usage

Once configured in Cursor, you can use the MCP by typing commands like:

/Repository Analysis analyze_repository facebook/react

Or:

/Repository Analysis get_file_content facebook/react package.json

Troubleshooting

  • If you encounter permission issues, make sure the script is executable:
    chmod +x cursor-mcp.js
  • If you see connection errors, verify your GitHub token is valid and has the necessary permissions
  • Make sure the path in mcp-config.json points to the correct location of cursor-mcp.js
