A multi-mode Rust application for CI/CD insights from Garnix.io. Available as a CLI tool, HTTP server, and MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for AI assistant integration.

Features

• Multiple Operating Modes: CLI, HTTP server, and MCP server
• Build Analysis: Real-time status, detailed logs, and failure analysis
• Output Formats: Human-readable, JSON, and plain text
• AI Assistant Integration: Full MCP support for GitHub Copilot, Claude, and other AI tools
• Error Handling: Graceful handling of API failures and network issues

Installation

From Cargo (Recommended)

cargo install garnix-insights

From Nix Flake

# Install to profile
nix profile install github:shift/garnix-insights

# Or run directly
nix run github:shift/garnix-insights -- --help

From Source

git clone https://github.com/shift/garnix-insights.git
cd garnix-insights
nix build
./result/bin/garnix-insights --help

Usage

CLI Mode

Set your JWT token as an environment variable:

export GARNIX_JWT_TOKEN="your_jwt_token_here"

Getting Your JWT Token

Currently, the JWT token is only available through browser developer tools:

1. Login to Garnix.io: Go to https://garnix.io and log in to your account
2. Open Developer Tools: Press F12 or right-click → "Inspect Element"
3. Go to Network Tab: Click on the "Network" tab in developer tools
4. Make an API Request: Navigate around the Garnix.io site to trigger API calls
5. Find API Request: Look for requests to api.garnix.io in the network list
6. Copy JWT from Cookie:
   • Click on any API request
   • Go to "Request Headers" section
   • Find the Cookie header
   • Copy the JWT value from the cookie

Note: This method is not ideal - I've reached out to the Garnix.io maintainers about providing a better solution for API access. Thanks to @lassulus for helping connect me with the team!

Commands

Check build status for a commit:

garnix-insights fetch --commit-id 3402d0072ce57370ed58ce28fe879c32a3501392

Get detailed build logs:

garnix-insights logs --commit-id 3402d0072ce57370ed58ce28fe879c32a3501392

Output Formats:

garnix-insights fetch --commit-id <COMMIT> --format json    # JSON output
garnix-insights fetch --commit-id <COMMIT> --format human   # Human-readable (default)
garnix-insights fetch --commit-id <COMMIT> --format plain   # Plain text

HTTP Server Mode

export GARNIX_JWT_TOKEN="your_jwt_token_here"
garnix-insights server

Access the API at http://127.0.0.1:8080/build-status/{commit_id}

MCP Server Mode

For AI assistant integration:

export GARNIX_JWT_TOKEN="your_jwt_token_here"
# Optional: choose protocol version (latest|stable|legacy|YYYY-MM-DD)
export GARNIX_MCP_PROTOCOL_VERSION=stable
# or pass as a flag: --mcp-version 2025-03-26
garnix-insights mcp

See MCP protocol details in MCP-USAGE.md.

AI Assistant Integration

GitHub Copilot

Add this to your .github/copilot-instructions.md:

## Garnix CI/CD Integration
- Use `garnix-insights fetch --commit-id <SHA>` to check build status
- Use `garnix-insights logs --commit-id <SHA>` for failure analysis  
- Always check builds before suggesting deployments
- Parse JSON output for programmatic analysis

Claude Desktop

Add to your configuration file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "garnix-insights": {
      "command": "garnix-insights",
      "args": ["mcp"],
      "env": {
        "GARNIX_JWT_TOKEN": "your-token-here"
