Overview

Zig MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server designed to enhance AI capabilities with Zig language tooling, code analysis, and documentation access.

To use Zig MCP Server, clone the repository, install dependencies, build the server, and configure it in your MCP settings. You can then utilize various tools for code optimization, estimation, generation, and recommendations.

  • Code optimization with multiple levels - Compute units estimation for resource usage - Code generation from natural language descriptions - Code improvement recommendations and best practices
  1. Optimizing Zig code for performance
  2. Estimating memory and time complexity of algorithms
  3. Generating Zig code based on user prompts
  4. Providing recommendations for code improvements

Add to your AI client

Use these steps to connect Zig MCP Server in Cursor, Claude, VS Code, and other MCP-compatible apps. The same JSON appears in the Use with menu above for one-click copy.

Cursor

Add this to your .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root, then restart Cursor.

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "zig-mcp-server-opensvm": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-zig-mcp-server-opensvm"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop

Add this server entry to the mcpServers object in your Claude Desktop config, then restart the app.

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "zig-mcp-server-opensvm": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-zig-mcp-server-opensvm"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

Add this to your project's .mcp.json file. Claude Code will detect it automatically.

.mcp.json (project root)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "zig-mcp-server-opensvm": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-zig-mcp-server-opensvm"
      ]
    }
  }
}

VS Code (Copilot)

Add this to your .vscode/mcp.json file. Requires the GitHub Copilot extension with MCP support enabled.

.vscode/mcp.json

{
  "servers": {
    "zig-mcp-server-opensvm": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-zig-mcp-server-opensvm"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Add this to your Windsurf MCP config file, then restart Windsurf.

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "zig-mcp-server-opensvm": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-zig-mcp-server-opensvm"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Cline

Open Cline settings, navigate to MCP Servers, and add this server configuration.

Cline MCP Settings (via UI)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "zig-mcp-server-opensvm": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-zig-mcp-server-opensvm"
      ]
    }
  }
}
