The registry entry has no remote endpoint or installable package.

What the publisher says

From the Gopls repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

gopls-mcp

Give your AI Agent the compiler's brain, not a text searcher.

Documentation: https://gopls-mcp.org

gopls-mcp delivers type-checker-level semantic analysis directly to your LLM. Unlike text search, it resolves Go's type system — interface satisfaction, cross-package identity, and shadowed scopes — with the same precision as the compiler.

Where it pays off most is on semantic tasks: finding all concrete types that implement an interface, tracing call hierarchies, and mapping package dependencies. A benchmark over 11 tasks shows gopls-mcp uses 2–4× fewer tool calls and finishes faster than grep-based navigation on those tasks. For simple same-file lookups, plain bash/grep remains equally effective and carries less overhead.
