Git

Read, search, and manipulate local Git repositories (status, diff, commit). With Lunar.dev MCPX, the MCP Gateway for secure and governed tool access, you connect the Git MCP server to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and any MCP client through one gateway that routes, authenticates, and governs every Git tool call against your policies.

Why MCPX

MCPX is Lunar.dev's MCP Gateway. It sits between your AI agents and your MCP servers as a single gateway for every tool call, routing, authenticating, and governing traffic against your policies. Connect Git once and govern it everywhere: role-based access per agent with on-behalf-of attribution, real-time visibility, and an immutable audit trail of who did what, all deployable inside your own VPC.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Git MCP server?

Read, search, and manipulate local Git repositories (status, diff, commit). Through Lunar.dev MCPX, Git connects to any MCP-compatible AI client behind a single governed gateway.

How do I connect Git to MCPX?

Add the Git server in the MCPX control plane or your app.yaml, then point your AI client at your MCPX gateway. MCPX handles no authentication and routes every Git call through the gateway.

Is the Git MCP server official?

Yes. Git is an official, vendor-published MCP server, and MCPX governs it like any other server in your catalog.

What authentication does Git use with MCPX?

Git requires no authentication. MCPX still controls which agents and users are allowed to call it through role-based access control.

How many tools does Git expose in MCPX?

Git exposes 12 tools. In MCPX you can enable or disable each tool per agent for least-privilege access.
