mcp-charcount

Simple MCP server that provides a single tool to count characters or bytes in text.

Quick start

  • Run with stdio (no PATH to python needed):

    • uv run src/mcp_charcount/server.py

  • Develop with MCP Inspector:

    • uv run mcp dev src/mcp_charcount/server.py

Tool: count_chars

  • Args: text: str, mode: "chars"|"bytes" = "chars", include_whitespace: bool = true

  • Returns: { "count": int, "mode": str, "include_whitespace": bool }

Tests

  • pytest -q (src layout is configured; install not required)

  • With uv: uv run pytest -q

Manifest

  • mcp.json is configured for this repo layout:

    • command: uv

    • args: ["run", "src/mcp_charcount/server.py"] This matches the current server which runs mcp.run(transport='stdio') when executed as a script.
