What problem does it solve?
cheez-read lets you view and inspect repository files safely and efficiently, especially source code, without wasting tokens or losing edit-ready anchors.
Core Features & Use Cases
- AST-aware reading: Uses tilth MCP to read files with structural understanding rather than generic text viewing.
- Outline vs full content: Automatically returns full content for small files and outlines for large files to control token usage.
- Edit-mode hash anchors: When needed, read specific line ranges in edit mode to capture hash anchors for follow-up edits.
- Scope guardrails: Enforces a hard tilth-only contract for code paths and refuses to fall back to host tools when tilth isn’t available.
- Directory listing with token estimates: Supports listing code files via tilth_files instead of ls/find-style browsing.
Quick Start
Ask to view the relevant code by saying: read src/auth.ts and return the important sections with line numbers.
