+ # GitHits
2

3
+ Code examples from global open source for developers and AI assistants.
4
+
5
+ ## Available Tools
6
+
7
+ ### search
8
+
9
+ Find code examples from open source repositories.
10
+
11
+ **Parameters:**
12
+
13
+ - `query` (string, required) - natural language description of what you need
14
+ - `language` (string, required) - programming language name (use `search_language` to verify)
15
+ - `license_mode` (string, optional) - one of `strict` (default), `yolo`, or `custom`
16
+
17
+ ### search_language
18
+
19
+ Look up supported programming language names. Use this before calling `search` to get the correct language identifier.
20
+
21
+ **Parameters:**
22
+
23
+ - `query` (string, required) - partial or full language name to look up
24
+
25
+ ### feedback
26
+
27
+ Rate a search result. Submit feedback after each search to improve future result quality.
28
+
29
+ **Parameters:**
30
+
31
+ - `solution_id` (string, required) - the ID of the search result
32
+ - `accepted` (boolean, required) - whether the result was useful
33
+ - `feedback_text` (string, optional) - additional context about why the result was or was not helpful
34
+
35
+ ## When to Use
36
+
37
+ Use `search` when:
38
+
39
+ - You are stuck or blocked on an implementation problem
40
+ - You need up-to-date examples for an API, library, or framework
41
+ - The user mentions GitHits or asks you to search for code examples
42
+ - You encounter an error you cannot resolve from your training data
43
+
44
+ Do not use `search` for:
45
+
46
+ - General knowledge questions that do not require code examples
47
+ - Problems you can already solve confidently
48
+
49
+ ## Authentication
50
+
51
+ - If any GitHits tool returns an authentication error, immediately run
52
+ `npx -y githits login` in the terminal. This opens the user's browser for
53
+ quick OAuth approval. Wait for the command to complete, then retry the
54
+ original tool call.
55
+ - If the environment has no display (SSH, containers), use
56
+ `npx -y githits login --no-browser` instead, which prints a URL for the
57
+ user to open on another device.
58
+ - Do NOT ask the user to run login manually - handle it automatically.
59
+ - If login fails, inform the user of the error.
60
+
61
+ ## How to Search Well
62
+
63
+ - Call `search_language` first to confirm the correct language name before calling `search`
64
+ - Formulate queries as natural language questions (e.g., "How to stream responses with the Vercel AI SDK in Next.js")
65
+ - Include specific error messages, library names, or API names when relevant
66
+ - Keep queries focused: 3-4 technical terms maximum
67
+ - Submit `feedback` after every search result you use or discard
68
+
69
+ ## License Filtering
70
+
71
+ Results respect license filtering by default. Three modes:
72
+
73
+ - **strict** (default) - excludes copyleft licenses
74
+ - **yolo** - includes all licenses
75
+ - **custom** - uses the user's blocklist configured at githits.com

19
+ ### Plugin Installation (Open Plugin standard)
20
+
21
+ The npm package includes Open Plugin-compatible files:
22
+
23
+ - `.plugin/plugin.json` (vendor-neutral, used by Cursor/Codex/Copilot-compatible hosts)
24
+ - `.claude-plugin/plugin.json` (Claude Code compatibility)
25
+ - `.claude-plugin/marketplace.json` (Claude Code marketplace catalog)
26
+ - `.mcp.json` (Open Plugin MCP server config for plugin hosts)
27
+ - `plugins/claude/` (Claude plugin runtime payload: `.claude-plugin/plugin.json`, `.mcp.json`, `skills/`, and `commands/`)
28
+
29
+ Root `.claude-plugin/marketplace.json` provides marketplace metadata. Claude Code
30
+ loads the plugin runtime payload from `plugins/claude/`.
31
+
32
+ **Claude Code Plugin (Marketplace)**
33
+
34
+ Install from terminal (recommended):
35
+
36
+ ```sh
37
+ claude plugin marketplace add githits-com/githits-cli
38
+ claude plugin install githits@githits-plugins
39
+ ```
40
+
41
+ This is preferred over in-session install so the plugin is loaded cleanly on
42
+ next `claude` launch.
43
+
44
+ Alternative (inside Claude input):
45
+
46
+ ```sh
47
+ /plugin marketplace add githits-com/githits-cli
48
+ /plugin install githits@githits-plugins
49
+ ```
50
+
51
+ If installed inside a running Claude session, reload/restart Claude if the
52
+ plugin is not immediately available.
53
+
54
+ For unpublished/local testing of this repository:
55
+
56
+ ```sh
57
+ claude plugin marketplace add "$PWD"
58
+ claude plugin install githits@githits-plugins
59
+ ```
60
+
61
+ By default, the plugin starts MCP with `npx -y githits@latest mcp start` so installs track the latest published GitHits CLI.
62
+
63
+ For unpublished/local testing, install from your local repository path and verify behavior in your host before publishing.
64
+
65
+ In Claude Code, run `/mcp` and confirm `plugin:githits:githits` is listed for the plugin path.
66
+
67
+ Note: when running Claude in this repository directory, root `.mcp.json` can also register `githits` for project-level MCP. For plugin-only attribution during testing, run Claude from a different working directory.
68
+
69
+ **Gemini CLI extension install**
70
+
71
+ ```sh
72
+ gemini extensions install https://github.com/githits-com/githits-cli
73
+ ```
74
+
75
+ For plugin-based hosts, install from npm/GitHub using your agent's plugin workflow and enable plugin `githits`.
76
+
77
+ ### Agent Coverage
78
+
79
+ - **Cursor**: reads vendor-neutral `.plugin/` for Open Plugin installs
80
+ - **Claude Code**: supports `.claude-plugin/` and Open Plugin components
81
+ - **Codex**: supports Open Plugin components
82
+ - **GitHub Copilot**: supports Open Plugin components
83
+ - **Gemini CLI**: supports `gemini-extension.json` and `GEMINI.md`

+ ## Manual Setup
153
+
154
+ If your tool is not in the supported `githits init` list, configure GitHits manually.
155
+
156
+ Use this MCP server command in your tool's MCP config (the host/agent runs this command):
157
+
158
+ ```sh
159
+ npx -y githits@latest mcp start
160
+ ```
161
+
162
+ A typical MCP config looks like this (check your tool's docs for exact schema/key names):
163
+
164
+ ```json
165
+ {
166
+ "mcpServers": {
167
+ "githits": {
168
+ "command": "npx",
169
+ "args": ["-y", "githits@latest", "mcp", "start"]
170
+ }
171
+ }
172
+ }
173
+ ```
174
+

+ If you'd like another tool to be included in `githits init` for auto-configuration, open an issue or PR.

29
+ - **search** — Find code examples by describing what you need in natural

+ ## Authentication
36
+
37
+ Run `npx -y githits login` to authenticate via browser, or set the
38
+ `GITHITS_API_TOKEN` environment variable for headless environments.
39
+
40
+ If users want to verify MCP tools loaded, suggest `/mcp`.
41
+
42
+ If the command fails, report the error and suggest running:
43
+
44
+ ```
45
+ npx -y githits login
46
+ ```

8
+ terminal:
9
+
10
+ ```
11
+ npx -y githits login
12
+ ```
13
+
14

15
+ locally and refreshed automatically.
16
+
17
+ If the environment has no display (SSH, CI, containers), use the `--no-browser`
18

19
+
20
+ ```
21
+ npx -y githits login --no-browser
22
+ ```
23
+
24
+ This prints a URL the user can open on another device.
25
+
26
+ Other useful flags:
27
+
28
+ - `--force` — re-authenticate even if already logged in.
29
+ - `--port <port>` — use a specific port for the local callback server.
30
+
31
+ After running the command, inform the user of the result. If login succeeds,
32
+ confirm they are authenticated. If it fails, provide the error and suggest they
33
+ try again.
34
+
35
+ Alternative: the user can set the `GITHITS_API_TOKEN` environment variable
36
+ instead of using browser login.

12

13
+ - **language**: The programming language. If the language is unclear from

15

8
+ Use GitHits when:
9
+
10
+ - You are blocked, uncertain about an API, or need up-to-date OSS usage.
11
+ - You have attempted a solution twice and it still fails - search for a working example before trying again.
12
+ - The user asks to search for examples or explicitly mentions GitHits.
13
+ - You are implementing non-trivial code in languages where confidence is lower.
14
+
15
+ Authentication:
16
+
17
+ - If any GitHits tool returns an authentication error, immediately run
18
+ `npx -y githits login` in the terminal. This opens the user's browser for
19
+ quick OAuth approval. Wait for the command to complete, then retry the
20
+ original tool call.
21
+ - If the environment has no display (SSH, containers), use
22
+ `npx -y githits login --no-browser` instead, which prints a URL for the
23
+ user to open on another device.
24
+ - Do NOT ask the user to run login manually -- handle it automatically.
25
+ - If login fails, inform the user of the error and suggest they set the
26
+ `GITHITS_API_TOKEN` environment variable as an alternative.
27
+
28
+ Guidelines:
29
+
30
+ - Prefer existing search context if it already answers the problem.
31
+ - Use `search_language` first when language naming is uncertain.
32
+ - Use `search` for one focused question at a time.
33
+ - After using results, send `feedback` with helpful/unhelpful outcome.

+ Tool argument details and rich query guidance are provided directly in the MCP
36
