Our reading of Codeman, from the data

Codeman is a ai & llm tools MCP server from ark0n, listed in the official MCP Registry.

We haven't measured its tool list yet, so its token cost is unknown.

With 800 GitHub stars it ranks #54 of 3,169 ai & llm tools servers we index.

It runs locally on your machine over stdio and needs one secret (CODEMAN_PASSWORD); use a scoped, least-privilege key.
