# MCP Watchtower: Static Analysis for MCP Servers

> MCP Watchtower scans MCP servers for tool conflicts, shadow patterns, and naming issues before production. Works with any language, zero LLM calls required.

![MCP Watchtower Workflow](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ariroffe72/mcp-watchtower/main/docs/assets/diagrams/mcp-watchtower-workflow.png)

MCP Watchtower catches the tool definition problems that quietly break LLM routing before they reach production. Scan any MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for duplicate names, shadow patterns, parameter conflicts, and other compatibility issues without sending anything to an LLM.
