About this project

RepoPrompt Community Edition is a native macOS app for context engineering and agent orchestration. It assembles reviewable context from selected files, repository structure, CodeMaps and Git diffs, then passes that context to AI tools and CLI agents. Its bundled MCP server also supports searching repositories and inspecting or curating files.

The current documented platform is macOS 26 or later. The public app can be installed through the dedicated Homebrew tap and cask, which uses a promoted signed and notarized updater package rather than compiling the repository. Model services and CLI agents are separate dependencies that need their own installation and login.

The repository is Apache-2.0. Building from source is a different path: it needs Xcode 26 or a matching SDK, and the Finder launchers require full Xcode and Python 3. Local production builds have their own signing limits and are not notarized redistributable packages, so those developer requirements should not be confused with the public cask installation.

Why it is worth a look

  • Curate repository files, structure, CodeMaps and Git diffs as context
  • Connect MCP clients to repository inspection tools
02

Before you use it

  • Requires macOS 26 or later
  • AI services and CLI agents have separate login and cost conditions
  • Source builds require the documented Xcode/SDK and launcher prerequisites
  • Review repository context before sharing it with a model

What it can do

  • Curate repository files, structure, CodeMaps and Git diffs as context
  • Connect MCP clients to repository inspection tools
  • Run and supervise agent sessions from a native macOS interface

Who it fits

Good for

Preparing focused context from a codebase; Managing repository-aware agent work on a supported Mac

Not a fit

Windows or Linux desktop use; Assuming the public cask and local source build have the same requirements

Getting started

  1. Check macOS 26 or later, then use the dedicated RepoPrompt CE Homebrew tap and cask
  2. Open the public app and add a repository whose content you are authorized to inspect
  3. Configure the chosen AI tools or CLI agents separately and review the context before sending it
