Sublime Text MCP

Installation

1. Clone the Repository

git clone https://github.com/dpc00/sublime-mcp.git
cd sublime-mcp

2. Install the Sublime Text Plugin

Windows (Command Prompt):

mklink /J "%APPDATA%\Sublime Text\Packages\sublime-mcp" "C:\path\to\your\sublime-mcp\repo\packages\st-plugin"

macOS/Linux:

ln -s "`pwd`/packages/st-plugin" "~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text/Packages/sublime-mcp"

(Remember to replace C:\path\to\your\sublime-mcp\repo with the actual path to where you cloned the repository.)

3. Install Optional Standalone MCP Plugins

The repo ships two additional standalone Sublime Text plugins that expose debugging (DAP) and language-server (LSP) tools over MCP. Install them the same way as the main plugin, by symlinking each package into your Sublime Text Packages/ directory.

debugger-mcp (serves Debugger DAP tools over MCP SSE on port 9505):

Windows (Command Prompt):

mklink /J "%APPDATA%\Sublime Text\Packages\debugger-mcp" "C:\path\to\your\sublime-mcp\repo\packages\debugger-mcp"

macOS/Linux:

ln -s "`pwd`/packages/debugger-mcp" "~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text/Packages/debugger-mcp"

lsp-mcp (serves LSP tools over MCP SSE on port 9506):

Windows (Command Prompt):

mklink /J "%APPDATA%\Sublime Text\Packages\lsp-mcp" "C:\path\to\your\sublime-mcp\repo\packages\lsp-mcp"

macOS/Linux:

ln -s "`pwd`/packages/lsp-mcp" "~/Library/Application Support/Sublime Text/Packages/lsp-mcp"

The ports can be overridden with the DEBUGGER_MCP_PORT and LSP_MCP_PORT environment variables. Restart Sublime Text after linking so the plugins load.
