AI Distiller MCP tools 16
distill_fileExtracts essential code structure from a single file - the core functionality of AI Distiller. Returns clean, structured code signatures optimized for AI context windows. USAGE: Essential for providing accurate code context to AI assistants. Automatically detects language and extracts API signatures, types, and structure while removing unnecessary implementation details.distill_directoryExtracts essential code structure from entire directories - the core functionality of AI Distiller. Processes all supported programming languages and returns structured API/code signatures optimized for AI context windows. USAGE: Perfect for understanding codebases, API discovery, and providing accurate code context to AI assistants. Supports filtering by visibility levels, file patterns, and content types.distill_with_dependenciesAnalyzes call dependencies and returns distilled code of only relevant methods/classes up to specified depth. This advanced feature traces function/method calls across files and includes only the code that is actually called from the target file, creating focused distillations for deep code analysis. USAGE: Perfect for understanding code execution flows, impact analysis, and creating focused context for AI assistants. Particularly useful for large codebases where you need to understand how specific functionality works across multiple files.aid_hunt_bugsGenerates a bug hunting prompt with distilled code for AI agents to systematically identify potential bugs, logical errors, race conditions, and quality issues. Use when you need AI to analyze code for hidden bugs or perform a comprehensive code health check. OUTPUT: Generates a markdown file with bug hunting prompt and distilled code. The response includes the file path - AI agents should read this file and follow instructions to perform the actual bug analysis.aid_suggest_refactoringGenerates a refactoring analysis prompt with distilled code for AI agents to identify specific refactoring opportunities. Use when you need AI to suggest improvements for code quality, readability, maintainability, or performance. OUTPUT: Generates a markdown file with refactoring prompt and distilled code. The response includes the file path - AI agents should read this file and follow instructions to provide refactoring suggestions with before/after examples.aid_generate_diagramGenerates a diagram creation prompt with distilled code for AI agents to create architectural diagrams in Mermaid format. Use when you need AI to generate flowcharts, sequence diagrams, class diagrams, and architecture overviews. OUTPUT: Generates a markdown file with diagram generation prompt and distilled code. The response includes the file path - AI agents should read this file and follow instructions to create 10+ Mermaid diagrams.aid_analyze_securityGenerates a security analysis prompt with distilled code for AI agents to perform comprehensive security audits with OWASP Top 10 focus. Use when you need AI to identify vulnerabilities, security anti-patterns, and weak points. OUTPUT: Generates a markdown file with security audit prompt and distilled code. The response includes the file path - AI agents should read this file and follow instructions to analyze security vulnerabilities and suggest remediation.aid_generate_docsGenerates documentation creation prompts with distilled code for AI agents to create comprehensive documentation including API references, usage examples, and developer guides. Use when you need AI to generate technical documentation from code. OUTPUT: Generates markdown files with documentation prompts and distilled code. The response includes file paths - AI agents should read these files and follow instructions to create the actual documentation.aid_deep_file_analysisGenerates task lists and prompts for systematic file-by-file analysis. Creates a structured workflow where AI agents analyze each file across multiple dimensions (Security, Performance, Maintainability, Readability). Perfect for comprehensive codebase reviews. OUTPUT: Generates task list, summary template, and directory structure for organizing analysis results. AI agents should read the task list and follow instructions systematically.aid_multi_file_docsCreates documentation workflow prompts with file relationships. Generates structured prompts that guide AI agents to create interconnected documentation covering multiple files, their relationships, and overall system architecture. OUTPUT: Generates workflow files that AI agents can follow to create comprehensive documentation with proper cross-references.aid_complex_analysisEnterprise-grade analysis prompt with full codebase context. Generates comprehensive prompts for architecture analysis, compliance checks, and detailed findings. Best suited for large codebases requiring deep architectural insights. OUTPUT: Generates analysis prompt with distilled code that AI agents can use to create architecture diagrams, identify patterns, and provide strategic recommendations.aid_performance_analysisPerformance optimization prompt with complexity focus. Generates analysis prompts that guide AI agents to identify performance bottlenecks, analyze algorithmic complexity, and suggest optimization strategies. OUTPUT: Generates performance analysis prompt focusing on scalability issues, resource usage, and optimization opportunities.- +4 more on the listing page
