Features
- Identical API to Claude's Text Editor: Implements the exact same interface as Claude's built-in text editor tool
- MCP Server Implementation: Follows the Model Context Protocol standard for AI tool integration
- File Operations:
Supported Claude Text Editor Versions
This package implements an equivalent tool to the built-in Claude text editor tool versions:
text_editor_20241022(Claude 3.5 Sonnet)

But using the tool name 'text_editor' to avoid name conflicts with built-in Claude tools.
