Setting up with Highlight
This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:
- Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
- Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
-
Configure the plugin with the settings below
Plugin Name

- Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches
From the repository
Start the MCP server via npx: npx ts-introspect-mcp-server. To integrate with your project, create a .roo/mcp.json configuration file specifying the command and arguments shown in the README. The server provides two MCP tools: introspect-package (for npm packages) and introspect-source (for TypeScript source code).
introspect-package
introspect-source
introspect-project

- Analyze TypeScript source code directly
- Get detailed type signatures for all exported symbols
- Extract JSDoc comments as descriptions
- Provide type information to LLMs through MCP
Usage
This tool can be run as an MCP server to provide TypeScript package introspection capabilities to LLM applications like Claude for Desktop. You can start it using npx:
npx ts-introspect-mcp-server
To integrate it with your project, create a .roo/mcp.json configuration file:
{
"mcpServers": {
"ts-introspect": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "ts-introspect-mcp-server"]
}
}
}
MCP Tools
The MCP server provides the following tools:
introspect-package
Introspects an npm package and returns its exported symbols.
Parameters:
- packageName: Name of the npm package to introspect (e.g., 'zod')
