MCP Server for AI Agents

Give your coding agent access to things LLMs can't do on their own: make HTTP requests, check DNS records, verify SSL certs, compute cryptographic hashes, execute regex patterns, and generate secure random values.

npx trim-dev-tools-mcp

24 tools total. 13 free (MIT license), 11 Pro ($4.99/month). Works with Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, and any MCP-compatible agent. New to MCP?

Network things LLMs literally cannot do

http_requestMake GET/POST/PUT/DELETE requests, see status + headers + body
dns_lookupResolve A, AAAA, MX, TXT, NS, SOA, or all records for a domain
ssl_checkCheck certificate issuer, expiry, fingerprint for any domain

Crypto & random LLMs get these wrong

hashMD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-512
hmacHMAC signatures (verify GitHub/Stripe webhooks)
uuidGenerate v4 UUIDs (single or batch)
random_bytesCryptographically secure random bytes (hex, base64, base64url)
passwordSecure password generation with entropy calculation

Regex LLMs guess; this executes

regex_testRun a pattern, get real match positions, groups, named captures

Encoding & tokens

jwt_decodeDecode header + payload, check expiration
base64Encode/decode, with base64url support
url_encodeURL encode/decode (component or full URI)

Format & time

epochConvert timestamps, get current time
