Description

This MCP server parses PHP files into their Abstract Syntax Tree representation using the php-ast extension, enabling detailed analysis of code structure including classes, methods, functions, and properties. It reduces token counts significantly by providing a high level of abstraction, which benefits code analysis and tooling. The server processes directories recursively and outputs JSON compatible with MCP clients, facilitating efficient PHP codebase analysis locally for development purposes.
