Grit uses abstract syntax tree (AST) parsing and pattern matching to automatically identify and rewrite code that depends on specific library versions. Rather than regex-based find-and-replace, it understands code structure semantically, enabling it to handle complex refactoring scenarios like API signature changes, renamed imports, and deprecated function calls across multiple files simultaneously. The system maintains type-aware transformations that preserve code semantics while updating to new dependency APIs.
Unique: Uses semantic AST-based pattern matching with language-specific grammar engines rather than text-based regex, enabling structurally-aware transformations that understand code intent and can handle multi-statement refactorings across file boundaries
vs alternatives: More precise than grep-based migration scripts because it understands code structure; faster than manual code review for large-scale upgrades because transformations apply consistently across entire codebases
Grit analyzes breaking changes between library versions (API removals, signature changes, renamed exports) and generates transformation rules automatically or semi-automatically. The system can ingest changelog data, API documentation diffs, or type definition changes to infer the migration patterns needed, reducing the manual effort of writing transformation rules from scratch. This capability bridges the gap between library maintainers publishing updates and developers needing to apply them.
Unique: Infers transformation rules from API diffs and type definitions rather than requiring manual rule authoring, using diff analysis and type system introspection to generate migration patterns automatically
vs alternatives: Reduces rule creation overhead compared to manual codemod writing; more maintainable than hardcoded migration scripts because rules are declarative and reusable across projects
Grit applies transformation rules across entire codebases in a single operation, handling file discovery, parallel processing, and conflict resolution. The execution engine traverses the codebase, identifies files matching transformation criteria, applies changes atomically, and generates a unified diff showing all modifications. It supports incremental application (only transforming changed files since last run) and can handle interdependent transformations where one change triggers another.
Unique: Executes transformations in parallel across file chunks while maintaining semantic correctness through dependency tracking, rather than sequential file-by-file processing that would be orders of magnitude slower
vs alternatives: Faster than running individual codemods per file because it batches AST parsing and caches results; more reliable than shell scripts because it understands code structure and handles edge cases
Grit provides a domain-specific language (DSL) for expressing code transformations that is language-agnostic at the rule level but compiles to language-specific AST operations. Rules are written in a declarative syntax that describes patterns to match and replacements to apply, with support for variable binding, conditionals, and multi-statement patterns. The DSL abstracts away language-specific AST details while allowing precise control over transformations through pattern matching and rewriting.
Unique: Provides a language-agnostic DSL that compiles to language-specific AST operations, allowing rule authors to express transformations once and apply them across JavaScript, Python, Java, Go, and other languages without rewriting
vs alternatives: More maintainable than language-specific codemod frameworks because rules are declarative and portable; more expressive than regex-based tools because it understands code structure
Grit integrates with Git to create branches, stage changes, and generate pull requests for transformations. Rather than directly modifying the working directory, it creates isolated branches with transformation changes, allowing developers to review diffs before merging. The system can automatically create PRs with summaries of changes, link to documentation, and trigger CI/CD pipelines to validate transformations before merge.
Unique: Integrates transformation execution with Git workflow primitives (branches, PRs, CI/CD) rather than applying changes directly, enabling safe review and validation before merge
vs alternatives: Safer than direct file modification because changes are isolated in branches and can be reviewed; more efficient than manual PR creation because summaries and links are generated automatically
Grit analyzes dependency manifests (package.json, requirements.txt, etc.) to identify outdated versions, security vulnerabilities, and compatibility issues. It compares current versions against available updates, checks for breaking changes, and recommends upgrade paths that minimize risk. The system can prioritize updates by severity (security patches vs. feature releases) and compatibility impact, helping teams decide which upgrades to apply first.
Unique: Combines vulnerability data, API change analysis, and codebase impact assessment to provide contextual upgrade recommendations rather than just listing available versions
vs alternatives: More actionable than generic dependency scanners because it analyzes actual code impact; more comprehensive than package manager built-in tools because it understands breaking changes across versions
Grit tracks which transformations have been applied to a codebase and can detect when a transformation has already been executed, preventing duplicate application. It maintains a transformation history (either in git metadata, a manifest file, or a remote service) that records which rules were applied, when, and to which files. This enables safe re-runs of transformation pipelines without corrupting code or applying changes multiple times.
Unique: Maintains transformation state and detects already-applied rules through pattern matching against current code, enabling safe re-execution of transformation pipelines without manual deduplication
vs alternatives: More reliable than manual tracking because state is automatically maintained; more flexible than one-time scripts because transformations can be safely re-applied across branches
Grit builds a dependency graph that spans multiple languages in a polyglot codebase, understanding how packages in one language depend on or interact with packages in another. For example, it can track how a Node.js service depends on a Python library, or how a Java backend uses a shared Go utility. This enables transformations that must coordinate changes across language boundaries, such as updating a shared API contract.
Unique: Builds a unified dependency graph across multiple language ecosystems and package managers, enabling impact analysis and coordinated transformations that span language boundaries
vs alternatives: More comprehensive than language-specific tools because it understands dependencies across the entire system; enables coordinated migrations that single-language tools cannot support
Executes SQL queries against Supabase PostgreSQL instances through the Model Context Protocol, translating natural language or structured query requests into parameterized SQL statements. Uses MCP's tool-calling interface to expose database operations as callable functions with schema validation, enabling LLM agents to perform CRUD operations, joins, and aggregations with automatic connection pooling and credential management through Supabase client SDK.
Unique: Exposes Supabase PostgreSQL as MCP tools with automatic credential injection from Supabase client SDK, eliminating manual connection string management and enabling seamless LLM-to-database queries within Claude or compatible agents
vs alternatives: Tighter integration than generic SQL MCP servers because it leverages Supabase's built-in authentication and connection pooling rather than requiring separate database credential configuration
Exposes Supabase Auth session state and user metadata through MCP tools, allowing agents to inspect current authentication context, retrieve user profiles, and trigger auth-related operations. Integrates with Supabase's JWT-based auth system to validate sessions and access user claims without re-authenticating, using the Supabase client's built-in session management.
Unique: Integrates Supabase's JWT-based auth system directly into MCP tool interface, allowing agents to inspect and act on auth state without managing separate credential stores or re-authentication flows
vs alternatives: More seamless than generic auth MCP servers because it leverages Supabase's built-in session management and avoids redundant credential passing between agent and auth system
Invokes Supabase Edge Functions (serverless TypeScript/JavaScript functions) through MCP tools, passing parameters and receiving results with optional streaming support. Uses Supabase's edge function HTTP API to trigger functions with automatic authentication headers and response parsing, enabling agents to execute custom business logic without embedding it in the agent itself.
Supabase scores higher at 42/100 vs Grit at 19/100. Supabase also has a free tier, making it more accessible.

Subscribes to real-time changes on Supabase tables through MCP's event streaming interface, using Supabase's PostgreSQL LISTEN/NOTIFY mechanism to push INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE events to agents. Maintains persistent WebSocket connections and filters events by table and row-level policies, enabling agents to react to database changes without polling.
Unique: Bridges Supabase's PostgreSQL LISTEN/NOTIFY real-time system with MCP's tool interface, enabling agents to subscribe to database changes without managing WebSocket connections or event serialization
vs alternatives: More efficient than polling-based approaches because it uses Supabase's native real-time infrastructure rather than repeated database queries
Manages files in Supabase Storage buckets through MCP tools, supporting upload, download, list, and delete operations with automatic authentication and path-based access control. Uses Supabase's S3-compatible storage API with built-in support for public/private buckets and signed URLs for temporary access, enabling agents to handle file I/O without managing cloud storage credentials.
Unique: Exposes Supabase Storage's S3-compatible API as MCP tools with automatic authentication and signed URL generation, eliminating the need for agents to manage cloud storage credentials or generate temporary access tokens
vs alternatives: More integrated than generic S3 MCP tools because it leverages Supabase's built-in bucket policies and authentication rather than requiring separate AWS credentials
Performs semantic similarity searches on vector embeddings stored in Supabase PostgreSQL using pgvector extension, translating natural language queries into embedding vectors and executing cosine/L2 distance searches. Integrates with embedding providers (OpenAI, Cohere) or uses pre-computed embeddings, enabling agents to retrieve semantically similar documents or records without full-text search limitations.
Unique: Integrates pgvector directly into MCP tools with automatic embedding generation and distance calculation, enabling agents to perform semantic search without managing separate vector database infrastructure
vs alternatives: More efficient than external vector databases (Pinecone, Weaviate) for Supabase users because it colocates embeddings with relational data, reducing network latency and simplifying data synchronization
Exposes Supabase database schema information through MCP tools, allowing agents to discover table structures, column types, constraints, and relationships without manual schema documentation. Queries PostgreSQL information_schema and Supabase metadata tables to dynamically generate schema descriptions, enabling agents to construct valid queries and understand data relationships.
Unique: Queries Supabase's PostgreSQL information_schema directly through MCP tools, enabling agents to dynamically discover and adapt to database schemas without pre-configured schema definitions
vs alternatives: More flexible than static schema definitions because it reflects live database state, including recent migrations or schema changes
Enforces Supabase Row-Level Security policies within agent queries, ensuring that agents can only access rows permitted by RLS rules defined in the database. Evaluates policies based on authenticated user context (JWT claims, user ID) and applies WHERE clause filters automatically, preventing unauthorized data access at the database layer rather than application layer.
Unique: Delegates authorization enforcement to PostgreSQL RLS policies rather than implementing authorization in agent code, ensuring that data access rules are centralized and cannot be bypassed by agent logic
vs alternatives: More secure than application-level authorization because RLS is enforced at the database layer, preventing accidental data leaks even if agent code has bugs
