Overview

What is Basilisp nREPL MCP Bridge?

Basilisp nREPL MCP Bridge connects Anthropic’s Model Context Protocol (MCP) to a Basilisp nREPL server, enabling Claude Code to evaluate code, inspect namespaces, and get documentation directly from a Basilisp REPL. It is built for developers using Basilisp (or any nREPL) who want to interact with their Lisp environment through Claude.

How to use Basilisp nREPL MCP Bridge?

First, start a Basilisp nREPL server with basilisp nrepl-server --port 36915. Then add the bridge to Claude Code with claude mcp add /path/to/basilisp_mcp_bridge.py. After that, use the provided MCP tools (eval_code, get_docs, find_namespace_vars, list_namespaces, check_connection) inside Claude to interact with the REPL.

Key features of Basilisp nREPL MCP Bridge

  • Execute Basilisp code with pretty-printed, syntax-highlighted results
  • Get documentation for any symbol in the REPL
  • List all available namespaces and their variables
  • Check nREPL server connectivity
