Code Editor MCP Server

Enables safe, concurrent file system operations with sandboxed directory access control, automatic encoding detection, optimistic locking, and precise code editing capabilities including search-replace and batch operations.

Caution. Specific findings reduced this grade. They are listed on the page. Grades reflect the full trust pyramid: code, verification depth, and reputation. New projects cap at C until adoption is earned.

These names and descriptions are the publisher's own, read from the source code. We print them as written. Our assessment is the findings above, not this list.

set_root_path

Add a directory to the allowed whitelist.

get_file_info

Get metadata for a file or directory.

list_allowed_roots

Return the current whitelist of allowed directories.

read_file

Read file content with optional line range.

read_files

Read multiple files in a single call.

dir_ops

Directory operations: create, list, or delete.

file_ops

File operations: write, append, copy, move, or delete.

edit_block

Search and replace text in a file.

edit_blocks

Apply multiple search/replace edits in a single call.

convert_file_encoding

Convert files between encodings (utf-8, gbk, gb2312).

To run this server yourself, you supply these values. They go in your own MCP client configuration and stay on your machine. The secret label means the value is sensitive, not that the server mishandles it.

Tool annotations

No tools have read-only/destructive annotations

Add readOnlyHint or destructiveHint annotations to every tool so hosts can warn users before invoking.

All four hints declared on every tool

10/10 tools missing one or more hints — set_root_path (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); get_file_info (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint); list_allowed_roots (missing: readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint), +7 more. OpenAI's directory rejects tools where any of the four hints are missing or non-boolean.

For every tool, set all four hints (readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint, openWorldHint) to explicit true/false values that match the handler’s actual behaviour.

Destructive tools are labelled

1 tool perform destructive updates without destructiveHint — file_ops deletes at line 416 (resolved.unlink())

Add destructiveHint:true to any tool whose handler calls .delete(), .upsert(), .update(), unlink, rm, DELETE, DROP, REPLACE INTO, or any operation that overwrites existing data.

Tool inputs are validated

9/10 tool handlers declare input schemas (90%)

Declare an inputSchema with zod/joi/yup on every tool definition.

Tool handlers catch errors

Only 1/10 tool handlers wrap calls in try/catch (10%)

Wrap each tool handler body in try/catch and return a structured error response.

Tests exist

No test files found

Add tests that exercise each declared tool.

// full audit trail
The findings above are the summary. The full trail, every check we ran, each deduction, the network hosts observed and the dependency advisories, goes to verified publishers, along with an alert whenever a new one lands. Verified publishers can also review each finding and dispute it in one click. Publisher corrections have sharpened several of our checks this month, because the maintainer knows the codebase better than any scanner.
// improvement guidance — verified publishers only
We have 6 concrete improvements we can share with the publisher of this MCP. Each comes with specific guidance to raise the trust score.
