MCP Server DevUtils — 17 Developer Tools for AI Assistants

npm version npm downloads CI License: MIT

An MCP server that gives your AI assistant 17 developer utilities — base64, UUID, JWT decode, cron, timestamps, JSON, regex. No API keys, no external services, just npx.

You: "Decode this JWT: eyJhbGci..."
AI:  Header: { alg: "RS256" }  Payload: { sub: "1234", exp: 1700000000 }  Expired: yes

Works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, and VS Code Copilot. Zero auth required.
