# CodeToPrompt MCP Server
[](https://badge.fury.io/py/codetoprompt-mcp)
**CodeToPrompt MCP Server** exposes the powerful features of the [codetoprompt](https://github.com/yash9439/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.

## 🔧 Installation
Install from PyPI:
```bash
pip install codetoprompt-mcp
```
This will automatically install `codetoprompt` and the required `mcp` library.

## 🚀 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:
```jsonc
{
"mcpServers": {
"CodeToPrompt": {
"command": "ctp-mcp"
}
}
}
```
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.
