Constellation

Code Intelligence Platform for AI Coding Assistants

GitHub

Constellation MCP Server

NPM Version TypeScript v5.9+ Node.js v24+ MCP Badge License: AGPL-3.0 Snyk Monitored

Give your AI coding assistant instant, intelligent access to your entire codebase's structure, dependencies, and relationships without transmitting any source code. Constellation provides code intelligence as a service to AI coding assistant tools.

Quick Start

Add the Constellation MCP server to your AI assistant project-level config (or system-level if your tooling doesn't support project-level configuration):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "constellation": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@constellationdev/mcp@latest"],
      "env": {
        "CONSTELLATION_ACCESS_KEY": "${CONSTELLATION_ACCESS_KEY}"
      }
    }
  }
}

[!NOTE]
The above example is a generic format for the .mcp.json file used by some tools such as VSCode and Claude Code.

Rather than directly configuring the MCP server, it is recommended to install and utilize official Constellation Plugins for optimal performance and behavior!

For information on configuring other AI assistants see the MCP Server > Installation doc.

For further instructions regarding authentication, project setup, and configuration refer to the official docs.

  1. Parse and Analyze: The CLI tool analyzes source code in your environment, extracting structural metadata (functions, classes, variables, imports, calls, references, etc.)
  2. Upload: Only the metadata is securely sent to Constellation, never raw source code
  3. Query: AI assistants use the Constellation MCP tool to send complex queries, and get rapid answers derived from the knowledge graph

Privacy & Security

  • No source code transmission - Only metadata and relationships
  • Access control - API keys required for all requests
  • Branch isolation - Each git branch maintains discrete code intelligence
