Just a good idea for development

fantastic MCP to use

I was using https://github.com/upstash/context7 seems like a similar one? Not sure if context7 even works anymore though honestly has been a while.
I think https://github.com/ChromeDevTools/chrome-devtools-mcp might also be helpful for some people

Context7 is great until you have to pay.

I havent completely tried it out yet but
https://github.com/DeusData/codebase-memory-mcp

I'm am going to see if this helps with long vision of entire codebase.

I am testing it right now. It seems very helpful. It removes the friction of grep. Though it also leads me to needing an autoapproval for MCP servers.

Can confirm it is quite helpful thanks!

I'm interested in using this with Late, but the install script doesn't detect/auto-configure the mcp for Late like it does for other harnesses. @mlhher Do you recall what you needed to configure for this to work properly?

I've got the MCP server entry and skill covered, but I don't want to miss anything else.

You need to build the repo as per the readme and then add it to your mcp_config.json; it is the same procedure for every single harness; if they have skills etc. you just copy them either into your global config dir or into the project local dir at .late (check the Quickstart Guide). I just built it manually then put this inside my ~/.config/late/mcp_config.json (note the paths are platform dependent, again check the Quickstart Guide):

{
"mcpServers": {
"codebase-memory-mcp": {
"command": "/path/to/codebase-memory-mcp/build/c/codebase-memory-mcp",
"args": []
}
}
}

Okay, thank you!
