MCP server that uses reflection to provide LLM's with knowledge about dotnet classes, their members, and their signatures.

Sherlock MCP for .NET

Sherlock MCP for .NET is a powerful tool that provides a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for .NET assemblies. It allows Language Learning Models (LLMs) to analyze and understand your .NET code, enabling more accurate and context-aware responses.

This tool is ideal for developers who want to leverage the power of LLMs to:

  • Understand complex .NET codebases.
  • Get detailed information about types, members, and their signatures.
  • Automate code analysis and documentation.
  • Build custom tools that interact with .NET assemblies.

Key Features

  • MCP Server: Provides a standardized interface for LLMs to interact with .NET assemblies.
  • Assembly Analysis: Uses reflection to extract detailed information about types, members, and their signatures.
  • Rich Toolset: Offers a comprehensive set of tools for analyzing assemblies, types, methods, properties, fields, events, and constructors.
  • .NET 9.0 Support: Built on the latest version of the .NET platform.
  • Easy to Use: Can be easily integrated into your existing workflows.

Installation

To use Sherlock MCP for .NET, you can install it from NuGet:

dotnet tool install -g Sherlock.MCP.Server

Usage

To configure Sherlock MCP as a custom tool in an IDE that supports the Model Context Protocol (such as Cursor), follow these steps:

  1. Open your IDE's settings.
  2. Navigate to the MCP or custom tools section.
  3. Add a new server configuration.
  4. For the command, enter sherlock-mcp.

Once configured, your IDE will be able to use Sherlock MCP for deep .NET code analysis.

Available Tools

Sherlock MCP for .NET provides the following tools for analyzing .NET assemblies:

  • AnalyzeAssembly: Analyzes a .NET assembly and returns information about all public types, their members, and metadata.
  • AnalyzeType: Gets detailed information about a specific type including all its members, methods, properties, and fields.
  • FindAssemblyByClassName: Searches for an assembly by its class name in common binary folders.
  • FindAssemblyByFileName: Searches for an assembly by its file name in common binary folders.
  • GetAllTypeMembers: Gets comprehensive member information for a type, including all methods, properties, fields, events, and constructors.
  • GetTypeConstructors: Gets detailed information about all constructors in a type.
  • GetTypeEvents: Gets detailed information about all events in a type.
  • GetTypeFields: Gets detailed information about all fields in a type.
  • GetTypeMethods: Gets detailed information about all methods in a type.
  • GetTypeProperties: Gets detailed information about all properties in a type.
