X Platform

A Cross-Platform Compatibility Analyzer MCP server that systematically identifies platform-specific code patterns, dependencies, and potential portability issues

License: MIT TypeScript MCP

Overview

MCP X-Platform is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server designed to analyze codebases for cross-platform compatibility issues. It detects platform-specific APIs, file path problems, line ending inconsistencies, shell command incompatibilities, and dependency issues across Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Key Features

• 🔍 Platform API Detection - Identify Windows, macOS, Linux, and POSIX-specific APIs
• 📁 File Path Analysis - Detect separator issues, reserved names, and case sensitivity problems
• 📝 Line Ending Check - Find CRLF vs LF inconsistencies
• 🖥️ Shell Command Analysis - Identify platform-specific shell commands and scripts
• 📦 Dependency Compatibility - Analyze dependencies for platform-specific packages
• 📊 Comprehensive Reports - Generate detailed cross-platform compatibility reports
• 🔗 MCP Integration - Seamless integration with other MCP tools
• ✅ Test-Driven - Built using TDD methodology

Installation

# Install dependencies
npm install

# Build the project
npm run build

# Run tests
npm test

Quick Start

As an MCP Server

Add to your MCP client configuration (e.g., Claude Desktop):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "x-platform": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/mcp-x-platform/dist/index.js"]
    }
  }
}

Core Tools

Tool	Purpose
detect_platform_apis	Detect platform-specific API calls
analyze_file_paths	Analyze file paths for compatibility
analyze_line_endings	Check line ending consistency
analyze_shell_commands	Analyze shell command compatibility
generate_compatibility_report	Generate comprehensive reports

Usage Examples

Detect Platform APIs

{
  "tool": "detect_platform_apis",
  "arguments": {
    "path": "./src",
    "platforms": ["windows", "macos", "linux"]
  }
}

Analyze File Paths

{
  "tool": "analyze_file_paths",
  "arguments": {
    "path": "./src",
    "checkCaseSensitivity": true,
    "checkSeparators": true
  }
}

Best Practices

File Paths

// ✅ GOOD
import * as path from "path";
const filePath = path.join("src", "utils", "helper.js");

// ❌ BAD
const filePath = "src\\utils\\helper.js";

Line Endings

# .gitattributes
* text=auto eol=lf
*.sh text eol=lf
*.{cmd,bat} text eol=crlf

Shell Commands

// ✅ GOOD - Cross-platform
import { rimraf } from "rimraf";
await rimraf("./temp");

// ❌ BAD - Platform-specific
exec("rm -rf ./temp");

Development

# Build
npm run build

# Test
npm test

# Watch mode
npm run build:watch
