agent-tool

Active·★ 24·MIT·Updated 2026-10-12

agent-tool is a single-binary MCP tool server that provides over 50 tools for AI coding agents. It addresses common issues like tab indentation corruption, encoding breakage, and lack of reverse engineering support. With smart indentation and encoding preservation, it seamlessly replaces built-in tools.

Features

01Smart indentation preservation (auto-detect tabs/spaces via .editorconfig or content)
02Encoding-aware file operations (EUC-KR, Shift-JIS, UTF-8, etc.)
0350+ integrated tools in a single binary (edit, read, grep, SSH, MySQL, reverse engineering, etc.)
04Reverse engineering capabilities (disassembly, PE/ELF parsing, memory search, debugger via DAP)
05Network censorship bypass (ECH + DoH by default for web fetch/download)
