[![skyzhao1223/wheel-hub MCP server](https://glama.ai/mcp/servers/skyzhao1223/wheel-hub/badges/score.svg)](https://glama.ai/mcp/servers/skyzhao1223/wheel-hub)

**Stop reinventing the wheel. Search, score and adopt the best open-source solutions — before you write a line of code.**

wheel-hub is an MCP server + CLI that makes both AI coding agents and humans check the open-source ecosystem first: given a feature or problem, it finds existing solutions and scores them on popularity, momentum, maintenance and trust, then tells you whether to **adopt**, **adapt**, **inspect** or **avoid**.

Why

Every developer (and every AI agent) rebuilds auth, schedulers, scrapers and admin panels from scratch — not because better wheels don't exist, but because nobody looks for them first. wheel-hub makes "look first" the default.

Install

MCP server (for Claude Code, opencode, Cursor, …)

npx @wheel-hub/mcp

Claude Code example:

claude mcp add wheel-hub --env GITHUB_TOKEN=ghp_xxx -- npx @wheel-hub/mcp

Generic JSON config example (works in most MCP clients):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "wheel-hub": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@wheel-hub/mcp"],
      "env": { "GITHUB_TOKEN": "ghp_xxx" }
    }
  }
}

**Note:** MCP clients only forward a whitelist of environment variables to servers. Always pass `GITHUB_TOKEN` explicitly through the client's `env` config, or the server will run unauthenticated at 60 requests/hour and hit rate limits quickly.

Then just ask your agent: *"before you implement, use wheel-hub to check what exists for background job scheduling"*.

CLI (for humans)

# one-off
npx @wheel-hub/cli find "SSO login" --lang typescript
npx @wheel-hub/cli evaluate ollama/ollama

# or install for the `wheel-hub` command
npm i -g @wheel-hub/cli
wheel-hub find "SSO login"
