What's New

New Tools (6)

  • checksum — File hash (md5/sha1/sha256)
  • diff — Compare two files (encoding-aware)
  • patch — Apply unified diff patches
  • file_info — File metadata (encoding, line ending, indentation)
  • find_tools — Auto-discover dev tools (Go, .NET, Node, Python, Java, Rust, C/C++, CMake, Make, Git, gh, Docker, Bun, Deno)
  • delete — Safe single-file deletion (system path protection, TOCTOU mitigation, dry_run)

Improvements

  • edit: dry_run preview mode
  • install: Auto-register tool permissions — no per-tool approval popups
  • install: claude mcp add as primary method with settings.json fallback
  • find_tools: Parallel discovery + 4KB memory-limited version output
