- `designcopier_extract` - Extract styles and convert to different formats
- Processes HTML and CSS content
- Supports conversion to Tailwind classes
- Can output in CSS, Tailwind, or React formats
- `designcopier_apply` - Apply extracted styles to target framework
- Takes extracted styles and applies them to a component
- Supports React (with styled-components)

## Clone Repo and Development
Install dependencies:
```bash
npm install
```
```bash
npm run prepare , first time only or any custom changes
```
Build the server:
```bash
npm run build , to make the build index.js file
```
For development with auto-rebuild:
```bash
npm run watch
```
## Installation
To use with Claude Desktop, add the server config:
On MacOS: `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
On Windows: `%APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
VS-Code with Cline or Roo: `Click top MCP Server icon, go to 'Installed' and at bottom of server list running, click 'Configure MCP Server'` Add this to the config:
```json
"design-copier": {
"timeout": 60,
"command": "node",
"args": [ "C:\\Users\\$ProfileUser$\\your-folder\\whatever folder\\design-copier\\build\\index.js"
],
"transportType": "stdio"
}
```
Another example:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"design-copier": {
"command": "node",
"args": [
"/path/to/design-copier/build/index.js"
],
"transportType": "stdio"
}
}
}
```
### Debugging
Since MCP servers communicate over stdio, debugging can be challenging. We recommend using the [MCP Inspector](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/inspector), which is available as a package script:
```bash
npm run inspector
```
The Inspector will provide a URL to access debugging tools in your browser.
