Phase 6 of v2.0. BooCoder exposes its task primitives as MCP tools
so external agents (Sam's opencode in Termius) can drive the task
queue without going through the web UI.
6 MCP tools registered via McpServer + StdioServerTransport:
- boocoder.create_task — INSERT pending task
- boocoder.list_pending_changes — SELECT pending changes
- boocoder.apply — apply a specific pending change to disk
- boocoder.reject — reject a pending change
- boocoder.dispatch_external_agent — create task with agent for Path B
- boocoder.list_worktrees — list active worktrees from running tasks
Activated by --mcp CLI flag: `node dist/index.js --mcp` starts the
MCP server over stdio instead of the HTTP server. Configure in
opencode: {"mcpServers":{"boocoder":{"type":"stdio","command":"docker",
"args":["exec","-i","boocoder","node","dist/index.js","--mcp"]}}}
Uses McpServer class from @modelcontextprotocol/sdk/server/mcp.js
(high-level .tool() registration API). Zod schemas for input
validation. Process blocks on stdin close, cleanly shuts down DB.

boocode
Self-hosted single-user developer chat app. v1: chat only.
Stack
- Node 20, Fastify, postgres (porsager/postgres), ws, zod
- React 18, Vite, TypeScript, Tailwind v4, shadcn/ui
- Postgres 16
- pnpm workspaces
Layout
apps/server— Fastify API + WebSocket + inference loop + file-read toolsapps/web— React frontend; served by Fastify in production, Vite in dev
Local dev
Requires Node 20, pnpm, Docker (for Postgres), and ripgrep.
# install
pnpm install
# bring up postgres only
cp .env.example .env
# edit POSTGRES_PASSWORD if you like; default DATABASE_URL points at the container
docker compose up -d boocode_db
# run server (port 3000) and web (port 5173) in two shells
DATABASE_URL=postgres://boocode:devpass@127.0.0.1:5500/boocode \
LLAMA_SWAP_URL=http://100.101.41.16:8401 \
pnpm dev:server
pnpm dev:web
The Vite dev server proxies /api and /api/ws/* to the Fastify backend with a
synthetic Remote-User: sam header so the Authelia auth layer can be skipped
during development.
Production
cd /opt/boocode
docker compose up --build -d
Binds to 100.114.205.53:9500 (Tailscale). Authelia is expected to gate the
upstream and inject Remote-User. Postgres binds loopback only.
What v1 has
Project sidebar, sessions per project, chat with streaming responses over
WebSocket, four file-read tools scoped to the project root (view_file,
list_dir, grep, find_files), and a model picker driven by llama-swap's
/v1/models.
What v1 does not have lives in v2 (terminal pane) and v3 (Coder pane).
