mcp-tldr

MCP server that exposes https://github.com/parcadei/llm-tldr code analysis tools to Claude Code (or any MCP client).

Prerequisites

Related MCP server: code-analyze-mcp

Setup

git clone https://github.com/YOUR_USER/mcp-tldr.git
cd mcp-tldr
python3 -m venv .venv
.venv/bin/pip install -e .

Add to Claude Code

Add this to your ~/.claude.json under mcpServers:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tldr": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "/absolute/path/to/mcp-tldr/.venv/bin/python",
      "args": ["server.py"],
      "cwd": "/absolute/path/to/mcp-tldr"
    }
  }
}

Replace /absolute/path/to/mcp-tldr with the actual path where you cloned the repo.

Alternatively, if tldr is not in your PATH, set the TLDR_BIN environment variable:

{
  "tldr": {
    "type": "stdio",
    "command": "/absolute/path/to/mcp-tldr/.venv/bin/python",
    "args": ["server.py"],
    "cwd": "/absolute/path/to/mcp-tldr",
    "env": {
      "TLDR_BIN": "/path/to/tldr"
    }
  }
}
