Integrations

  • Used as the backend server technology for the MCP server, providing HTTP and SSE (Server-Sent Events) capabilities

  • Detected as a global tool to provide documentation through the MCP server

  • Detected as a global tool and used to discover package scripts to provide documentation through the MCP server

MCP Tools Documentation

A VSCode/Cursor extension that provides an integrated MCP server and UI panel for retrieving and displaying command-line tool documentation. The extension automatically detects tools in your workspace and provides their documentation through a WebView panel.

    • Express + SSE server (ports 54321-54421)
    • Secure origin validation
    • Automatic port selection
    • Connection management and cleanup
    • Real-time event streaming
  • 🔍 Tool Discovery
    • Package scripts (npm, yarn, pnpm)
    • Local binaries (node_modules/.bin)
    • Global tools (git, npm, yarn, pnpm)
    • Monorepo workspace support
  • 📚 Documentation Retrieval
    • Help command execution (-h, --help)
    • Version information fetching
    • Secure command validation
    • Error handling
  • 💻 VS Code Integration
    • React-based WebView panel
    • Status bar integration
    • Command palette support

Architecture

1. VS Code Extension (Backend)

Extension Host (src/extension.ts) ├── Activates when VS Code starts ├── Creates MCP Server │ └── Express + SSE Server (54321-54421 port range) └── Creates WebView Panel

2. MCP Server (Middle Layer)

MCP Server (src/server/*) ├── SSE Event Stream │ ├── Real-time tool discovery updates │ ├── Documentation streaming │ └── Connection state management │ └── Tool Discovery System ├── path-scanner.ts │ └── Finds tools in workspace (bin/, node_modules/.bin) └── package-scanner.ts └── Scans package.json for available tools

3. WebView Panel (Frontend)

React WebView (src/panel/*) ├── UI Components │ └── Shows available tools and their docs │ └── SSE Client ├── Requests available tools └── Streams tool documentation

Development Setup

  1. Install dependencies:
pnpm install
  1. Start development:
# Start webpack in watch mode pnpm run dev # Or build for production pnpm run build
  1. Launch the extension:
  • Press F5 in VSCode to start debugging
  • The extension will start both the MCP server and WebView panel

Usage

  1. Open the command palette (Cmd/Ctrl + Shift + P)
  2. Type "MCP Tools" and select the command
  3. The WebView panel will open and display available tools
  4. Select a tool to view its documentation
