Text Editor

An open-source implementation of Claude's built-in text editor tool as an MCP server, allowing AI assistants to view, edit, and create text files with persistent state across command calls. Developed by Ben Houston, this server provides identical functionality to Claude's text_editor tool, supporting operations like viewing file contents with line ranges, creating new files, replacing text, inserting at specific lines, and undoing previous edits. The implementation is particularly useful for workflows where AI assistants need to manipulate text files without switching contexts.
