Write 100x better code using AI (for free!) Install the Codacy extension (VSCode, Cursor, WindSurf). This will install an MCP Server locally on your computer. Your coding copilot will use this server with the Codacy CLI to check every line of code it generates. The way this works is... pretty awesome (assuming you are using Cursor): 1. You ask Cursor to generate some code 2. Cursor writes the code 3. Cursor then calls Codacy's MCP Server to check it 4. The MCP Server will use the Codacy CLI to find any issues 5. Cursor will fix the issues and call the MCP server again 6. When the code passes all checks, you are done Level of effort on your side: literally zero! Code quality and security because of this: 100x better! Codacy has been doing this for a long, long time, and their Guardrails MCP Server checks for a lot of potential issues: • Security issues • Quality standards • Pattern violations • Linting issues You can see more information about the extension here: I recorded a quick video to show you how it works. Thanks to the Codacy team for helping me set up everything, answering my 1,000 questions, and collaborating with me on this post.show more

@codacy Which MCP servers do you use on Cursor given that 53 tools is all it can take?

@codacy This is game-changing. AI writes the code, checks itself, and fixes it too? Wild how fast ‘just write it and pray it compiles’ is becoming ancient history.

8 rules to improve your AI coding agent. All of these rules work with Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, and with most programming languages. Automating these rules will 10x the code quality and security produced by your AI coding agents. 1. Dependency checks - Prevent your agent from suggesting insecure libraries based on outdated training data. 2. Secret exposure - Auto-fix the use of hardcoded credentials introduced by your coding agent. 3. File and function size - Automatically refactor any files or functions that exceed a reasonable length. 4. Complexity and parameter limits - Simplify overly complex code written by the agent. 5. SQL Injection - Auto-fix all database interactions with unsanitized user input. 6. Unused variables and imports - Detect and remove dead code. 7. Detect invisible unicode characters in AI rules files - Remove zero-width spaces, direction overrides, and other invisible characters that can hide malicious behavior. 8. Insecure OpenAI API usage - Enforce use of secure OpenAI endpoints, proper authentication, and context isolation Here is how you can automate this: Install the Codacy extension. This will give you access to a CLI for local scanning and an MCP server for agent communication. From here on out, every time you need to generate some code: 1. Your agent will write the code 2. It will then call Codacy's CLI to check it 3. It will find any issues in real time 4. Your coding agent will fix the issues 5. When the code passes all checks, you are done Level of effort on your side: literally zero! Code quality and security because of this: 100x better! Here is the link to download the extension for your IDE: Thanks to the Codacy team for collaborating with me on this post.

I added a Knowledge Graph to Cursor using MCP. You gotta see this working! Knowledge graphs are a game-changer for AI Agents, and this is one example of how you can take advantage of them. How this works: 1. Cursor connects to Graphiti's MCP Server. Graphiti is a very popular open-source Knowledge Graph library for AI agents. 2. Graphiti connects to Neo4j running locally. Now, every time I interact with Cursor, the information is synthesized and stored in the knowledge graph. In short, Cursor now "remembers" everything about our project. Huge! Here is the video I recorded.

English is the most powerful language in the world. MongoDB just added support for MCP, and literally anyone can now query data without knowing anything about databases. If you know English, you are all set. I recorded a quick video to show you how I connect to a sample Airbnb database and run different queries: • How many listings? • How many listings in the US? • What's the list of countries in these listings? It takes 10 seconds to configure Claude, Cursor, WindSurf, or any other AI assistant to connect to MongoDB's MCP Server. By the way, the server supports much more than queries: • You can explore your collections • You can fetch schema information • You can generate app code snippets • You can manage your databases • You can handle cluster/user/admin tasks Here is a link to the MCP server GitHub repository: This is huge for developers. It's even bigger for non-developers. Thanks to the MongoDB team for collaborating with me on this post.

An MCP server that detects production-grade code quality issues in real-time! Even though AI is now generating code at light speed, the engineering bottleneck has just moved from writing to reviewing, and now devs spend 90% of their debugging time on AI-generated code. AI reviewers aren't that reliable either because they share the same fundamental blind spots as AI generators do: - They pattern match, not proof check. - They validate syntax, not system behavior. - They review code, not consequences. I have been using the SonarQube MCP Server (by Sonar) to solve this. It produces enterprise-grade code analysis and returns instant feedback on bugs, vulnerabilities, and code smells right where you're working (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.). Its capabilities have emerged from the 750B+ lines of code SonarQube processes daily, so it has seen every bug pattern that exists. This includes: - Security vulnerabilities (SQL injection, XSS, hardcoded secrets) - Code smells and technical debt - Test coverage gaps - Maintainability issues The setup is simple: - Install the SonarQube MCP server - Add it to your AI assistant's config Done! SonarQube is now part of your AI coding workflow. I have shared the GitHub repo in the replies! P.S. Thanks to Sonar for working with me today.

SonarQube has been catching my bugs and security issues for years. The only friction was having to leave Cursor or Windsurf to view the results. Their new MCP Server fixes that by bringing verification directly into the coding environment 🔥 This is actually perfect timing 🧵 ↓ Because we write more code than ever thanks to AI, yet productivity still doesn’t keep up. Google’s 2025 DORA Report shows the tension: → AI usage +90% → Bugs +9% → Review time +91% → PR size +154% (report here: The problem isn’t generating code. It’s verifying it quickly and reliably. And this is what SonarQube's new MCP Server brings instantly: - Live scanning → trigger SonarQube checks inside Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code… basically any MCP-compatible IDE - Immediate surfacing → security, reliability, and maintainability issues in seconds - Smooth UI handoff → jump to the dashboard only when you need the full picture - AI-native workflow → Sonar’s long-standing rule engine integrated into your daily loop Why it’s great: • Removes constant tab-switching • Faster write → check → fix cycles • Lets the IDE handle speed while SonarQube handles structure • Feels like code quality finally meets AI-native development Setup is super simple: → Enable SonarQube's MCP Server in Cursor → Add your SonarQube instance → Open your repo → Run the scan directly inside the IDE I then pointed it to a JS component I’m building in Streamlit (psst, it’s called Streamlit ChartJS ;)) → Immediate results: security flags, reliability concerns, maintainability smells, and dependency risks ✅ Then I prompted: "Show me the full breakdown." → Cursor opens the SonarQube UI with rule details, severities, fix guidance, and project-wide quality signals! Exactly on point.

I'm still picking my jaw off the floor with this MCP update: Postman will now automatically build an MCP server for an API. Automatically! You select your API and the requests you want to include, and Potman will generate a Zip file with everything you need. In collaboration with Postman, I recorded a video showing how I generated an MCP server for the Google Maps API. It's glorious! Also, and before I forget: You can now test any MCP server with your Postman application. They built MCP right in, so now you can: • Connect to an MCP server • List out all of the available tools • Test any of the tools This is a 10x boost for the MCP ecosystem. If you've tried the default MCP debugger, you'll understand how huge a deal it is that you can do all of that from Postman now. Go here to give this a try:
