Retrieves COBOL source code and copybooks from z/OS mainframes to empower AI assistants and developers.
Sponsored
The COBOL Server acts as a crucial bridge, enabling AI assistants, particularly via VS Code's native Model Context Protocol (MCP) support and GitHub Copilot, to directly access COBOL programs and copybooks stored on IBM z/OS mainframes. It offers versatile connectivity through either a direct SSH connection to the mainframe's USS filesystem or via robust CA Endevor API web services. Designed for secure, read-only source retrieval, it features configurable connection pooling, comprehensive error handling, and seamlessly integrates into modern development workflows, allowing AI to interact with legacy mainframe codebases effectively.
