probe_data

MCP tool from AtariHackerMCP by pdavis68

Analyze a memory range to identify data type (text, graphics, table, charset, display list, sprite data, map data) with confidence scoring

How to use it

Project documentation lists probe_data for the AtariHackerMCP MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), then check which tools your installed version makes available. Tool availability can depend on configuration and credentials. A server handshake does not verify this tool’s behavior. See the full listing for setup details.

Install AtariHackerMCP

$dotnet run --project /absolute/path/to/AtariHackerMCP/AtariHackerMCP.csproj --no-build
