About Basin MCP

Basin MCP is a powerful reliability tool designed for AI-powered code editors like Cursor and Windsurf. It effectively prevents code generation hallucinations by rigorously testing the output of your AI copilot and providing feedback for automatic improvements. This process ensures your development environment produces dependable, high-quality code, enabling faster and more confident coding sessions. Basin MCP quickly detects and flags issues, streamlining your workflow and reducing bugs caused by AI errors.

How to Use

To implement Basin MCP, add it to your code editor either by updating your `mcp_config.json` file with your API key or by using your editor’s MCP settings to include the command `env BASIN_API_KEY=<api_key> npx -y basin-mcp@latest`. Before starting, install Playwright with `npm i -g playwright@latest`, as Basin depends on it for testing. Trigger Basin MCP by appending the message ‘Generate ..., and test with Basin MCP tool, server is running at http://localhost:3000’ to your prompt. Ensure your server is active with your code changes for testing to work properly.
