# Editor MCP A Python-based text editor server built with FastMCP that provides powerful tools for file operations. This server enables reading, editing, and managing text files through a standardized API with a unique multi-step approach that significantly improves code editing accuracy and reliability for LLMs and AI assistants. [](https://mseep.ai/app/b23694aa-c58a-469d-ba3c-fb54eb4d0d88) ## Features - **File Selection**: Set a file to work with using absolute paths - **Read Operations**: - Read entire files with line numbers using `skim` - Read specific line ranges with prefixed line numbers using `read` - Find specific text within files using `find_line` - Find and extract function definitions in Python and JavaScript/JSX files using `find_function` - **Edit Operations**: - Two-step editing process with diff preview - Select and overwrite text with ID verification - Clean editing workflow with select → overwrite → confirm/cancel pattern - Syntax checking for Python (.py) and JavaScript/React (.js, .jsx) files - Create new files with content - **File Management**: - Create new files with proper initialization - Delete files from the filesystem - List directory contents with `listdir` - **Testing Support**: - Run Python tests with `run_tests` - Set Python paths for proper module resolution - **Safety Features**: - Content ID verification to prevent conflicts - Line count limits to prevent resource exhaustion - Syntax checking to maintain code integrity - Protected paths to restrict access to sensitive files ## Security Risks The editor-mcp includes powerful capabilities that come with certain security considerations: - **Jailbreak Risk**: The editor-mcp can potentially be jailbroken when reading a file that has harmful instructions embedded inside. Malicious content in files being edited could contain instructions that manipulate the AI assistant. - **Arbitrary Code Execut…
