Supercharge your AI assistants for VSCode! This extension enables a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that allows AI assistants to directly interact with your VSCode environment.

• Zero Configuration - Automatically starts when VSCode launches
• AI Assistant Enhancement - Enable AI tools to read, modify, and analyze your code
• Code Operations - Let AI assistants create, edit files, and search through code
• Debugging Integration - AI assistants can help manage breakpoints and run configurations
• Terminal Operations - Allow AI assistants to run terminal commands and get results
• Git Integration - Check change status, commit history
• Claude Desktop Compatible - Fully compatible with Claude Desktop, enabling AI-driven automated development

• New Display Name - Renamed to "GG MCP for VSCode" for better clarity and recognition
• Improved Path Handling - Better cross-platform compatibility and path standardization with the new pathInProject parameter
• Command Output Capture - AI assistants can now execute commands and get their output
• Enhanced Terminal Tools - Better terminal text access and command execution
• File Partial Replacement Interface - Added new replace_specific_text API for replacing specific text in files
  • Provides the ability to replace specific code content locally
  • Supports replacing text within a single line or multiple lines
  • Preserves the original formatting (such as line endings and indents)
• File Caching Mechanism - Introduced an efficient file caching system to improve performance and reduce redundant file reads

• Search for "GG MCP for VSCode" in the VS Code marketplace and install
• Or click here to install

• Claude Desktop Integration: This extension is fully compatible with Claude Desktop, allowing you to:
  • Accept and execute development instructions from Claude
  • Enable automated coding assistance through Claude's AI capabilities
  • Let Claude read and modify your codebase directly with proper permissions
• MCPxHub: For enhanced experience, use with MCPxHub plugin

After installation, the MCP server automatically starts. Check the bottom-right status bar:

• 🔄 MCP Server - Server is starting
• ⚡ MCP Server - Server is running
• ❌ MCP Server - Error occurred

Click on the status bar item to see details or restart the server.

When interacting with AI assistants that support the MCP protocol (like Claude Desktop), you can now:

• Ask the assistant to look at your currently open files
• Request the assistant to modify code
• Have the assistant perform project tasks
• Let Claude automatically develop features based on your requirements
• Execute terminal commands and get their output

With GG MCP for VSCode and Claude Desktop, you can:

• Instruct Claude to analyze your entire codebase
• Have Claude automatically implement new features or fix bugs
• Ask Claude to refactor code while maintaining functionality
• Let Claude suggest improvements to your code architecture
• Use natural language to describe coding tasks and let Claude handle the implementation

The extension now includes an intelligent file caching mechanism:

• Reduces file system read operations
• Improves performance for repeated file access
• Automatically invalidates cache when files are modified
• Can be configured in extension settings

Find all options by searching for "ggMCP" in VS Code settings:

• Port range
• Terminal timeout
• File auto-reload options
• File caching behavior

• MCP: Show Server Status - View current server information
• MCP: Restart Server - Manually restart the MCP server
