About
# TypeScript Package Introspector (MCP Server) This tool introspects TypeScript packages and source code to extract exported symbols (functions, classes, types, constants) and their type information. It can be used both as a library/CLI tool and as a [Model Context Protocol (MCP)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/)…
Explore
- Extract exported symbols from npm packages using their type definitions
- Analyze TypeScript source code directly
- Get detailed type signatures for all exported symbols
- Extract JSDoc comments as descriptions
- Run as an MCP server to provide context to LLMs

npm install
import { introspectFromPackage, introspectFromSource } from 'ts-morph-mcp-server';
// Introspect a package
const exports = await introspectFromPackage('zod');
console.log(exports);
// Introspect source code
const source =
export function add(a: number, b: number): number {
return a + b;
}
const sourceExports = introspectFromSource(source);
console.log(sourceExports);
This tool can be run as an MCP server to provide TypeScript package introspection capabilities to LLM applications like Claude for Desktop.
```bash
The MCP server provides the following tools:
