mcp-gitignore

Canonical .gitignore templates from github/gitignore

Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 250+ live data sources.

Tools

Tool	Description
`list_templates`	List all available .gitignore template names from github/gitignore.
`get_template`	Fetch the raw .gitignore content for the named template (case-sensitive, e.g. "Node", "Python", "macOS").
`compose`	Compose a combined .gitignore from multiple templates, separated by headers.

Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "gitignore": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/gitignore/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 250+ data sources:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pipeworx": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:

ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Gitignore data" })

The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
