Hide MCP server
A MCP server for Hide – headless IDE.
Components
Tools
The server implements two tools adapted from Anthropic's computer-use-demo:
Text Editor
For viewing and editing files. Features file viewing with line numbers, directory listing, file creation, string replacement with exact matching, line insertion, and edit history.
Bash
A persistent bash shell with support for common Linux/Python packages, background processes and automatic output truncation.
Quickstart
Install
Claude Desktop
On MacOS: ~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
On Windows: %APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
Development
Building and Publishing
To prepare the package for distribution:
- Sync dependencies and update lockfile:
- Build package distributions:
This will create source and wheel distributions in the dist/
directory.
- Publish to PyPI:
Note: You'll need to set PyPI credentials via environment variables or command flags:
- Token:
--token
orUV_PUBLISH_TOKEN
- Or username/password:
--username
/UV_PUBLISH_USERNAME
and--password
/UV_PUBLISH_PASSWORD
Packaging
To package the service into a standalone executable:
This will create a standalone executable in the dist/
directory.
Debugging
Since MCP servers run over stdio, debugging can be challenging. For the best debugging experience, we strongly recommend using the MCP Inspector.
You can launch the MCP Inspector via npm
with this command:
Upon launching, the Inspector will display a URL that you can access in your browser to begin debugging.
This server cannot be installed
hybrid server
The server is able to function both locally and remotely, depending on the configuration or use case.
