mcp-server-code-assist
The mcp-server-code-assist is a Model Context Protocol server for code modification and generation powered by Large Language Models. It enables:
File Operations: Create, read, modify, completely rewrite, and delete files
Directory Management: List directory contents, create new directories, and display directory tree structures
Code Modification: Use search/replace patterns to make targeted changes, returning diffs
Git Integration: View git status, diffs, commit history, and detailed commit information for repositories
These capabilities allow for comprehensive code assistance through file manipulation and version control integration.
Click on "Install Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@mcp-server-code-assistcreate a new Python file at /src/utils.py with a function to calculate factorial"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
