## What it 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`.

## Requirements

## When to use it
- 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
- 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
