### Description (declared)

# txtool-mcp

MCP server exposing [txtool](https://pypi.org/project/txtlvit/) text processing capabilities as tools for Claude and other MCP-compatible agents.

## Prerequisites

Install `uv` (if not already):

```bash
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
```

No separate install step needed — `uvx` fetches and runs `txtool-mcp` automatically.

## Setup

### Claude Desktop

Add to `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "txtool": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["txtool-mcp"]
    }
  }
}
```

Restart Claude Desktop — txtool tools will appear automatically.

### Claude Code (CLI)

**Option 1 — CLI command (recommended):**

```bash
claude mcp add txtool -s user -- uvx txtool-mcp
```

**Option 2 — Manual config:**

Add to `~/.claude.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "txtool": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["txtool-mcp"]
    }
  }
}
```

Restart Claude Code — txtool tools will appear automatically.

### Other MCP-compatible tools (Kiro, etc.)

Refer to your tool's documentation for how to register MCP servers. Use `uvx txtool-mcp` as the server command.
