ToolPipe MCP Server · ithiel-labs — Claude Code MCP server: install and tools
Over 100 developer utilities for data transformation, network inspections, hashing, and configuration generation via MCP.
claude mcp add --transport http toolpipe-mcp-server https://toolpipe.dev/mcpWhat ToolPipe MCP Server does
This server gives coding agents direct access to standard developer utilities without writing scratch scripts. It eliminates repetitive helper tasks. Tools handle conversions between JSON and YAML, calculate SHA-256 or MD5 digests, validate schemas, and inspect remote SSL certificates. It also creates initial Docker Compose manifests and Nginx configurations on demand.
You can connect directly to the hosted endpoint or run the server locally using npx. Setting TOOLPIPE_LOCAL to true delegates basic operations to offline handlers. Unregistered requests stay capped at 100 calls per day unless you provide a free TOOLPIPE_API_KEY.
What it helps with
- convert data structures between JSON, CSV, and YAML
- inspect domain SSL certificates and DNS records
- generate boilerplate files for Docker Compose and Nginx
- produce test UUIDs and cryptographic hashes
Example prompts for the agent
- Inspect the SSL certificate and DNS entries for
example.com - Convert this JSON object into a TypeScript interface definition
- Generate an Nginx configuration file reverse-proxying traffic to port 8080
