Why This Project Is Awesome

Which criterion does it meet? (pick one)

  • Industry Standard - The go-to tool for a specific use case
  • Rising Star - 5000+ stars in < 2 years, significant adoption
  • Hidden Gem - Exceptional quality, solves niche problems elegantly

Explain:

Skylos is the only MCP server that provides static analysis (dead code, security, secrets, quality) across Python, TypeScript, and Go. Benchmarked against Vulture across 9 popular Python repos (350k+ combined stars) with 98.1% recall and fewer false positives — every finding manually verified. No other SAST tool (SonarQube, Snyk, Semgrep) offers MCP integration. 322 GitHub stars, published on PyPI, active development.

How It Differs

Semgrep MCP and Snyk MCP focus on known vulnerability patterns. Skylos detects dead code, unused functions/imports/classes, hardcoded secrets, and code quality issues with framework-aware analysis (Django, Flask, FastAPI, Pydantic, etc.). Also includes AI-powered remediation via the remediate tool.
