The Real Problem With AI-Generated Code

When you ask Claude to write code, it works. But does it pass code review?

❌ No dependency injection
❌ Missing error handling
❌ Basic tests (if any)
❌ No input validation
❌ God classes and long methods
❌ Fails SonarQube quality gates

You spend hours fixing AI-generated code to meet your team's standards.

What If Claude Wrote Code Like Your Senior Engineers?

class UserService {
  private users: User[] = [];

  getUser(id: string) {
    return this.users.find(u => u.id === id);
  }

  createUser(name: string, email: string) {
    const user = { id: Date.now(), name, email };
    this.users.push(user);
    return user;
  }
}

interface UserRepository {
  findById(id: UserId): User | null;
  save(user: User): void;
}

class UserService {
  constructor(
    private readonly repository: UserRepository,
    private readonly idGenerator: IdGenerator
  ) {}

  getUser(id: UserId): User {
    const user = this.repository.findById(id);
    if (!user) throw new UserNotFoundError(id);
    return user;
  }

  createUser(input: CreateUserInput): User {
    this.validateInput(input);
    const user = User.create(
      this.idGenerator.generate(),
      input.name.trim(),
      input.email.toLowerCase()
    );
    this.repository.save(user);
    return user;
  }
}

Benchmark Results: The Numbers Don't Lie

We tested Claude generating identical tasks with and without Corbat MCP across 20 scenarios.

Key finding: Code generated with Corbat MCP passes SonarQube quality gates. Without it, code fails.

Why Corbat MCP vs Other Solutions?

Linters and analyzers catch problems after the fact. Corbat MCP prevents them.

vs Other Coding MCPs

Quick Start (2 minutes)

Step 1 — Add to Claude:

claude mcp add corbat -- npx -y @corbat-tech/coding-standards-mcp

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "corbat": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@corbat-tech/coding-standards-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Step 2 — Just code:

You: "Create a payment service"

Corbat: ✓ Detected Java/Spring project
        ✓ Loaded java-spring-backend profile
        ✓ Applied hexagonal architecture rules
        ✓ Enforced TDD workflow
        ✓ Set 80%+ coverage requirement

That's it. Claude now generates code that passes code review.

What Gets Injected Automatically

When you ask Claude to create code, Corbat MCP injects professional standards:

## Detected
- Stack: Java 21 · Spring Boot 3 · Maven
- Task type: FEATURE
- Profile: java-spring-backend

## MUST
✓ Write tests BEFORE implementation (TDD)
✓ Use hexagonal architecture (domain → application → infrastructure)
✓ Apply SOLID principles
✓ Ensure 80%+ test coverage
✓ Create custom error types with context
✓ Validate all inputs at boundaries

## AVOID
✗ God classes (>200 lines) or god methods (>20 lines)
✗ Hard-coded configuration values
✗ Mixing business logic with infrastructure
✗ Returning null/undefined (use Result types or throw)

Smart Guardrails by Task Type

Corbat MCP automatically detects what you're doing and applies different rules:

You: "Fix the login timeout bug"

Corbat detects: BUGFIX
Applies: Failing test first → Minimal fix → Verify no regressions

Built-in Profiles for Every Stack

Auto-detection: Corbat reads pom.xml, package.json, requirements.txt to select the right profile automatically.

Corbat MCP acts as a quality layer between you and Claude. It automatically:

1. Detects your project's technology stack
2. Classifies the type of task (feature, bugfix, refactor, test)
3. Loads the appropriate profile with architecture rules
4. Injects guardrails before Claude generates any code

Customize (Optional)

Interactive Setup

npx corbat-init

Manual Config

Create .corbat.json in your project root:

{
  "profile": "nodejs",
  "rules": {
    "always": [
      "Use TypeScript strict mode",
      "Prefer functional programming"
    ],
    "never": [
      "Use any type"
    ]
  }
}
