Description
Stop reinventing the wheel. MCP server + CLI that makes AI coding agents search GitHub for existing open-source solutions before implementing — scored 0-100 with adopt/adapt/inspect/avoid verdicts.

**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"
