insert_text

MCP tool from MCP Files by flesler

Insert/replace text at precise line ranges. Perfect for direct line operations from code citations (12:15:file.ts) and surgical edits in large files

How to use it

Project documentation lists insert_text for the MCP Files 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.
