detect_package_manager

MCP tool from Ember MCP by ember-tooling

Detect which package manager (pnpm, yarn, npm, bun) is being used in a workspace by examining lockfiles and package.json. Returns the appropriate commands to use for installing dependencies, running scripts, and executing packages.

How to use it

Project documentation lists detect_package_manager for the Ember MCP 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.
