EditorConfig MCP server

This is a small helper that formats your code files using the .editorconfig rules already in your project. It is handy if you use an AI assistant to write code and keep getting little complaints from your linter about spacing or blank lines. Instead of fixing those by hand, you let this helper clean things up.

What this MCP server does

You ask your AI to format a file, or a group of files, in your project. The AI passes that request to this helper. The helper reads your project's .editorconfig rules, opens the file, and fixes things like trailing spaces or inconsistent line endings. It then tells your AI which files it changed and how big they are. You get back a short confirmation in the chat.

What you can do with it

• Format a single file so it matches your project rules
• Format many files at once using a pattern like all .js files
• Clean up trailing spaces and messy blank lines
• Fix inconsistent line endings in generated code
• Get a list of which files were changed

Try asking your AI

• “Format src/index.js using our editorconfig rules”
• “Tidy up all the JavaScript files in this project”
• “Fix the formatting on the file I just created”
• “Clean up every file that matches src/**/*.ts”

What it gives back to you

You get a short answer in the chat, like a success message, the file path, and how many bytes the file is now. If you asked for many files, you get a count and a list of the file names. If something went wrong, you get a plain message with a hint about what to try next.

Before you start

Who it's for

Developers and anyone who uses an AI assistant to write code and wants it to follow the project's formatting rules.
