File Edit Check MCP Server

An MCP server that enforces pre-read checks and detailed commit documentation. This server prevents blind modifications to files by requiring explicit read operations before any writes or diffs can be applied.

Features

• Enforces pre-read verification before file modifications
• Prevents blind writes and diffs
• Provides detailed commit message guidance
• TypeScript implementation with proper error handling

Tools

• checked_read_file: Read a file and mark it as read for future editing
• checked_write_to_file: Write to a file, requiring it to have been read first if it exists
• checked_apply_diff: Apply a diff to a file, requiring it to have been read first
• list_my_tools: List the tools registered in this server

npm install
npm run build
