Overview

What is Elixir Linux MCP Server?

Elixir Linux MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol server that adapts the Elixir Linux code indexing tool for use with large language models. It enables LLMs to more accurately read and understand Linux kernel source code that has been indexed by Elixir. This server is intended for developers who already have Elixir, a local Linux repository, and Python/uv installed.

How to use Elixir Linux MCP Server?

Add a JSON configuration to your MCP client with the command uv and arguments pointing to the server directory and script. Set two environment variables: LXR_BASE_DIR (pointing to the Elixir data root, typically /srv/elixir-data/) and REPO_DIR (pointing to your local Linux source repository). The server runs via main.py.

Key features of Elixir Linux MCP Server

FAQ from Elixir Linux MCP Server

What dependencies are required?

You need a local Elixir installation with an indexed Linux repository, Python 3, uv, and a cloned Linux source tree.

How do I configure the environment variables?

Set LXR_BASE_DIR to the root of your Elixir data (e.g., /srv/elixir-data/) and REPO_DIR to the path of your cloned Linux repository.

Where does the Elixir index data live?

The typical directory structure under LXR_BASE_DIR is linux/data/ and linux/repo/, corresponding to the indexed data and the local repo clone.

What runtime does the server use?

The server runs via uv with the command uv --directory /path/to/elixir_linux_mcp_server run main.py. Python is required.

Can it work without a local Linux clone?

No. The server requires both an Elixir index and a cloned Linux repository on the same machine.
