Usage

1. With Claude Desktop

Add to your Claude Desktop configuration file:

macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "code-analyzer": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/code-mcp/server.py"]
    }
  }
}

Then restart Claude Desktop.

2. With Continue.dev (VS Code)

Add to your Continue configuration:

{
  "models": [...],
  "mcpServers": {
    "code-analyzer": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/code-mcp/server.py"]
    }
  }
}

3. With Other MCP Clients

Any MCP-compatible client can use this server by pointing to the server.py file.

AI Configuration

To use the AI-powered tools, you need to configure your API keys:

1. Copy .env.example to .env:

   cp .env.example .env
   

2. Edit .env and add your API keys:

   AI_PROVIDER=openai
   OPENAI_API_KEY=your-openai-api-key
   # or
   AI_PROVIDER=anthropic  
   ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=your-anthropic-api-key
   

Thinking Models Support

The tool automatically handles "thinking" models (like o1, o1-preview) that include reasoning in their responses:

• Thinking sections are automatically removed
• Only the actual code is extracted
• Supports various thinking formats: <think>, [thinking], etc.

3. Install AI dependencies:

   pip install openai anthropic
   

4. Test LLM connectivity:

   ./test_llm.sh
   # or
   python tests/test_llm.py
   

Examples

In Claude Desktop

After configuring, you can ask Claude:

• "Read the file src/main.py"
• "Search for all functions that contain 'test' in the src directory"
• "Find where the class 'UserModel' is defined"
• "Analyze the structure of app.py"
• "List all Python files in the project"
