README
maven-mcp
Agent plugin for Claude Code, Grok Build, Cursor, and Codex that provides Maven dependency intelligence via an MCP server — query artifact versions, scan projects for outdated dependencies, check for vulnerabilities, and fetch changelogs.
How it works
The plugin bundles a single-file Python 3 MCP server (`plugin/server/server.py`) that speaks MCP over stdio (JSON-RPC 2.0 on stdin/stdout) or over a stateless Streamable HTTP endpoint. It uses the Python standard library only — zero pip dependencies. The plugin registers the server via `.mcp.json` (Claude Code, Grok Build) and `mcp.json` (Cursor, Codex), both `command: python3`, so it installs with no extra runtime setup. The server can also be run standalone and connected to any MCP-compatible agent — see [Use with any MCP client](#use-with-any-mcp-client).
Version lookups use the repositories the build file declares. Maven Central, Google Maven, and the Gradle Plugin Portal are used when that scope declares none. Private repositories need credentials — see [Configuration](docs/configuration.md).
**Gradle scanning** runs the project's wrapper once and reads production runtime classpaths (`*RuntimeClasspath`), then merges declared provenance from build files and version catalogs. **Maven scanning** reads `pom.xml` locally.
