CodeReaper
CodeReaper is an AI-driven MCP tool for Cursor that finds and removes dead JavaScript by exploring real UIs and capturing V8 coverage.
Key Features
- Autonomous UI exploration via the Index browser agent
- V8 precise coverage to identify zero-execution functions
- Risk scoring and removal recommendations
- Patch generation and optional verification replay
- MCP integration for Cursor workflows
MCP Tools
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
find_dead_code | Full pipeline: scan + analyze. Returns dead-code report with file paths, line numbers, risk scores, and removal recommendations. |
scan_website | Scan only (no analysis). Returns scan_id for later use. |
analyze_dead_code | Analyze a completed scan. Takes scan_id. |
generate_patches | Generate unified diffs to remove dead code (conservative / balanced / aggressive). |
get_patch_diff | Retrieve the combined diff for a patch. |
apply_patch | Apply a patch to source files (stores snapshots for rollback). |
verify_patch | Re-run the browser agent to check for regressions after patching. |
rollback_patch | Restore original files from pre-patch snapshots. |
list_scans | List recent scans. |
get_scan_status | Get detailed status of a scan. |

Copy & paste β that's it
pip install codereaper
playwright install chromium
codereaperBefore it works, you'll need: GEMINI_API_KEY
Quick Install
pip install codereaper
playwright install chromium
codereaperWhen you first run codereaper, it prompts for your Gemini API key and saves it in your global ~/.cursor/mcp.json so Cursor can invoke it later.
Alternative Install
# pipx
pipx run codereaperPrerequisites
- Python 3.11+
- Playwright Chromium (installed via
playwright install chromium) - A Gemini API key (or OpenAI / Anthropic if you change providers)
Quick Start
- Install and run
codereaper(it updates~/.cursor/mcp.json) - Restart Cursor
- Ask the assistant:
"Find dead JavaScript code on http://localhost:3000"
Usage
Command:
codereaperExample scan with local source mapping:
"Find dead code on http://localhost:3000, source is in ./test_site"
Troubleshooting
- If the browser doesnβt open, install Chromium:
playwright install chromium - If the scan fails with key errors, ensure
GEMINI_API_KEYexists in~/.cursor/mcp.json - If local pages donβt load, confirm your dev server is running and reachable
- If Gemini rate limits hit, retry after the quota window resets
