CodeToPrompt MCP Server

CodeToPrompt MCP Server exposes the powerful features of the codetoprompt library through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). This allows LLM agents and other MCP-compatible clients to programmatically generate prompts, analyze codebases, and retrieve specific file contents.

🚀 Usage with an MCP Client

This server is designed to be used with an MCP client, such as the Claude Desktop App.

Example: Claude Desktop Configuration

To use this server with Claude, add it to your claude_desktop_config.json file:

{
  "mcpServers": {

    }
  }
}

Once configured, you can invoke the tools from your conversation with the LLM.

Available Tools

• ctp-get-context: The primary tool for generating a comprehensive prompt from a directory. It supports all of codetoprompt's filtering, formatting, and compression options.
• ctp-analyse-project: Provides a detailed statistical analysis of a codebase, including token counts, line counts, and breakdowns by file type.
• ctp-get-files: Retrieves the content of specific files, formatted as a prompt. This is useful for targeted queries.
