Command-line tool for managing tree-sitter language parsers with download utilities.
## Installation
```sh
cargo install ts-pack-cli
```
Or install via Homebrew:
Homebrew 6.0+ requires explicit trust for third-party taps. Trust once, then install:
```sh
brew trust xberg-io/homebrew-tap
brew install xberg-io/homebrew-tap/ts-pack
```
## Quick Start
```sh
# Initialize a language-pack.toml config
ts-pack init
# List available languages
ts-pack list
# Download specific languages for offline use
ts-pack download python rust javascript
# Check download status
ts-pack status
# Add languages to your config
ts-pack add python rust javascript
# Clone parser sources
ts-pack clone
```
## API Reference
### Commands
- `ts-pack init` -- initialize a `language-pack.toml` config in the current directory
- `ts-pack list` -- list all available language names
- `ts-pack download <lang>...` -- download specific parsers for offline use
- `ts-pack status` -- show download status of all configured languages
- `ts-pack add <lang>...` -- add languages to `language-pack.toml`
- `ts-pack clone` -- clone parser source repositories (for development)
- `ts-pack parse <file>` -- parse a file and print the syntax tree
- `ts-pack process <file>` -- extract code intelligence from a file
### Global Flags
- `--config <path>` -- path to `language-pack.toml` (default: current directory)
- `--verbose` / `-v` -- enable verbose output
- `--help` -- show help for any command
## MCP Server
The CLI includes an MCP server for integration with AI agents and IDEs. Start it with:
```sh
ts-pack mcp
```
The server runs over stdio by default. For HTTP transport (remote agents or team setups):
```sh
ts-pack mcp --transport http --host 127.0.0.1 --port 8011
```
### Options
- `--transport <stdio|http>` -- transport mode (default: `stdio`)
- `--host <addr>` -- bind address for HTTP transport (default: `127.0.0.1`)
- `--port <u16>` -- port for HTTP transport (default: `8011`)
- `--config <path>` -- optional language-pack.toml config file
### Tools
The MCP server exposes 8 tools:
- **`parse`** — render syntax tree as S-expression or JSON
- **`process`** — extract code intelligence (structure, imports, exports, symbols, docstrings, comments, diagnostics, chunking)
- **`detect_language`** — identify language from file path or source code
- **`list_languages`** — enumerate available, downloaded, or manifest languages with optional filtering
- **`info`** — get status of a specific language (available, downloaded, etc.)
- **`download`** — fetch parsers (list, groups, all, or fresh)
- **`cache_dir`** — retrieve the local cache directory
- **`clean_cache`** — delete cached parsers
### Resources
- `ts-pack://languages` — available language catalog
- `ts-pack://languages/downloaded` — user-downloaded parsers
- `ts-pack://language/{name}` — per-language status (template resource)
### Prompt
- **`analyze-code`** — analyze source code with language detection and code intelligence extraction
For detailed setup and IDE configuration, see the [MCP Server guide](https://docs.tree-sitter-language-pack.xberg.io/guides/mcp-server/).
