Description

Fast local MCP server for deterministic cross-service API-chain discovery across REST, GraphQL, Kafka, TypeScript, and FastAPI.

Installation

Ariadne's thread — a way out of the microservice maze.

Cross-service API dependency graph for Spring Boot + TypeScript microservice stacks. MCP stdio server for AI coding assistants (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf), with a CLI twin. Local SQLite + TF-IDF. Zero ML dependencies.

What it does

Indexes the *contract layer* — GraphQL mutations, REST endpoints, Kafka topics, frontend queries. Nothing else. That's why results fit an AI context window.

Ask Claude *"where does createOrder live across the stack?"* and `query_chains` returns:

Top Cluster #1  [confidence: 0.91]
  Services: gateway, orders-svc, billing-svc, web
  - [web]          Frontend Mutation: createOrder
  - [gateway]      GraphQL Mutation:  createOrder
  - [orders-svc]   HTTP POST /orders: createOrder
  - [orders-svc]   Kafka Topic:       order-created
  - [billing-svc]  Kafka Listener:    order-created → chargeCustomer

The response is intentionally bounded for an AI context window. See the [reproducible public-stack benchmark](BENCHMARKS.md) for measured retrieval, serialized token, and timing results against `rg` and `grep`.

Current public-stack benchmark (48 reviewed queries across Spring REST, GraphQL/TypeScript, Kafka, and FastAPI):
