How to Set Up and Use Codestyle
MCP Codestyle Server (码蜂) is a Java-based Model Context Protocol server built on Spring AI that provides IDE and AI agents with code template search, retrieval, project analysis, and skeleton extraction tools. It uses Apache Lucene with Chinese tokenization for full-text search over a local template cache, and can fall back to a remote Open API for extended template libraries. Developers use it to let AI coding assistants like Claude, Cursor, and Cherry Studio instantly find and apply reusable code templates — from CRUD controllers to Spring Boot service layers — without leaving the chat interface.
Prerequisites
- Java 17 or higher
- Maven 3.9 or higher
- An MCP-compatible client: Cherry Studio, Cursor, Claude Desktop, or TRAE
- Git for cloning the repository
Clone the repository
Clone the mcp-codestyle-server repository to your local machine.
git clone https://github.com/itxaiohanglover/mcp-codestyle-server.git
cd mcp-codestyle-serverBuild the JAR with Maven
Package the application into a runnable JAR file. Skip tests for a faster initial build.
mvn clean package -DskipTestsLocate the built JAR
After building, the JAR file will be in the target directory. Note its full path for the MCP configuration.
ls target/codestyle-server-*.jarConfigure your MCP client
Add the server to your MCP client configuration pointing to the built JAR. The server runs in stdio mode with Spring Boot's web server disabled.
Verify the server starts
Restart your MCP client. The codestyle server should appear in the tool list with tools like codestyleSearch, getTemplateByPath, and analyzeProject.
Configure remote template source (optional)
To enable the remote Open API for extended template libraries, set the CODESTYLE_REMOTE_ENABLED environment variable and provide a base URL with access credentials.
CODESTYLE_REMOTE_ENABLED=true
CODESTYLE_CACHE_PATH=/path/to/local/cacheCodestyle Examples
Client configuration
Add this to your claude_desktop_config.json or MCP client settings to run the Codestyle MCP server. Replace the JAR path with your actual build output path.

}Prompts to try
Use these prompts in your AI assistant after connecting the Codestyle MCP server.
- "Search for CRUD templates using codestyleSearch"
- "Find a Spring Boot controller template for user management"
- "Get the template at path continew/CRUD/1.0.0/backend/src/main/java/com/air/controller/Controller.ftl"
- "Analyze the project structure at /path/to/my/project"
- "Extract the skeleton of the UserService class for code review"Troubleshooting Codestyle
Java process exits immediately when launched by the MCP client
Ensure the JAR path in your MCP config is the full absolute path to the built JAR file in the target directory. Verify Java 17+ is on PATH by running 'java -version' in your terminal. The -Dlogging.pattern.console= flag suppresses Spring Boot console logs that can interfere with stdio MCP communication.
codestyleSearch returns no results
On first run, the server downloads template metadata from the remote repository and builds the Lucene index in the local cache directory (default: ./mcp-cache). This may take a moment. If results are still empty, check that CODESTYLE_CACHE_PATH is writable and the cache directory was created.
Only code analysis tools appear, not template tools
Check if codestyle.tool-group is set to 'analyze' in your configuration (via -Dcodestyle.tool-group=analyze JVM arg). Remove this argument or set it to 'all' to expose all tools including template search and management.
