buffer_cut
Cut lines from file to buffer (copy and delete from source)
How to use it
Project documentation lists buffer_cut for the Clippy 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.
