MCP tools

Tool	What it does
get_editor_state	Every open window: folder, main file, active file, view, tabs, unsaved changes, cursor, selection, live preview.
get_unsaved	The text of the active file, if it has unsaved changes.
get_diagnostics	Compile errors and warnings with file and line, and whether a compile is running.
get_compile_config	Compile command, format, engine, output folder, PDF and log paths.
open_file	Opens a file. With a line, in the source editor.
show_diff	The Diff view against the last commit, in a git repository.
set_view_mode	visual, source or diff.
synctex_to_line	Shows where a line appears in the PDF. For Typst, moves the live preview, which must be running.
set_main_file	Sets the main file (.tex or .typ), or clears it when path is left out.
compile	Starts a compile and returns at once. Poll get_diagnostics until it finishes.
set_output_paths	Changes the output folder, PDF path or log path. An empty string clears one.
get_comments	Comment threads with the line each sits on. A thread whose text is gone from the file reads as detached.
add_comment	Adds a thread on a quote that appears exactly once in the file.
reply_to_comment	Replies to a thread.
resolve_comment	Resolves a thread. resolved: false reopens it.
reanchor_comment	Moves a thread onto new text.
suggest_edit	Puts a change into the open file as a suggestion.

Comment tools take by, the author name, default "AI assistant". prefix, suffix and line pick between copies of a quote.

suggest_edit works on the file open in the editor, with a quote that matches exactly once (markup included) and a replacement that differs from it. It is refused while you host a shared session. In LaTeX it is also refused if the new text cites a key your bibliography lacks or removes a \label.
