A tool to convert code snippets into AI prompts for documentation or explanation purposes.
Code2prompt MCP server is a locally run integration for AI assistants that speak the Model Context Protocol. A tool to convert code snippets into AI prompts for documentation or explanation purposes.
Code2Prompt is a powerful command-line tool that generates comprehensive prompts from codebases, designed to streamline interactions between developers and Large Language Models (LLMs) for code analysis, documentation, and improvement tasks.
The server ships on PyPI as code2prompt, so your MCP client can launch it on demand — there is no separate build step. Add the server block to your client's configuration, restart it, and the tools register themselves.
Once Code2prompt is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:
Installation — The Installation tool exposed by this serverPlenty of file and storage access servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. Code2prompt's toolset — Installation — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by Raphael MANSUY; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.
