Genexus Overview

The genexus MCP server connects AI clients to GeneXus Knowledge Bases through the native SDK or version-specific legacy drivers. It exposes tools for inspecting, searching, editing, creating, building, comparing, merging, and refactoring KB objects, plus call-graph and health diagnostics. Use it when an agent needs to work with real KB content rather than a parsed copy. Native SDK support covers GeneXus 16, 17, and 18, while older versions use more limited compatibility paths.

Primary Use Cases for Genexus:
  • Inspect GeneXus objects and their callers
  • Search source across Procedures, DataProviders, WebPanels, and Transactions
  • Edit objects and rebuild affected callers
  • Create and refactor GeneXus KB components
