What is MCP Text Transform Server?
An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server implemented in C# .NET 9 that provides text transformation tools. It offers CapitalCase and SnakeCase conversions and is compatible with Claude Desktop and other MCP clients.
How to use MCP Text Transform Server?
Build the project with dotnet build and run with dotnet run. To integrate with Claude Desktop, add a text-transform entry to its configuration pointing to the project with dotnet run --project /path/to/McpServer.csproj --no-build. Tools can then be invoked via natural language prompts or JSON‑RPC calls.
