Coding Tools MCP
Coding Tools MCP exposes a default catalog of 18 tools for file reading, search, structured multi-file changes, interactive execution and Git inspection. It supports stdio and Streamable HTTP and documents configuration for Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code and other MCP clients. The Python runtime requires Python 3.11 or later; the npm package launches it through uv or pipx. Safe, trusted and dangerous modes gate execution permissions. Linux Landlock adds filesystem confinement, but the README explicitly says this is not a complete OS sandbox. Apache-2.0 open-source runtime; bring your own MCP client/model. No server subscription listed.
