magic-mcp

Overview

The magic-mcp server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables AI assistants and agents to interact with Magic, a platform for AI-assisted software development and code understanding. It allows AI-driven workflows to generate, edit, and reason about code with deeper project awareness — turning Magic’s code intelligence capabilities into native tools inside MCP-compatible assistants.

This server is especially useful for code generation, refactoring, large-scale codebase understanding, and developer productivity workflows augmented by AI.

Key Capabilities

• AI-assisted code generation — Create new code informed by existing project structure and conventions.
• Code understanding — Analyze and explain complex or unfamiliar codebases.
• Refactoring support — Perform structured code changes safely and consistently.
• Project-aware reasoning — Leverage contextual understanding across files and modules.
• Developer productivity — Reduce manual effort in editing, reviewing, and maintaining code.

How It Works

The magic-mcp server runs as an MCP service that connects AI clients to Magic’s code intelligence platform using authenticated credentials. AI clients communicate with the server over the MCP protocol to request code-related context or transformations as part of broader reasoning workflows.

The server mediates access to Magic’s underlying models and project analysis capabilities, returning structured results that AI assistants can reason over directly. By abstracting away implementation details, the server allows workflows to focus on what changes or insights are needed rather than how to compute them.

By exposing Magic through MCP, the server enables AI-driven development workflows such as code generation, refactoring, and deep code understanding — all within a single conversational or automated environment.
