git_diff
structured diff output grouped by file with per-file truncation
How to use it
git_diff is exposed by the Notion Local Ops MCP MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), and the git_diff tool becomes available to the model automatically. See the full listing for setup details and every tool this server provides.
