+# QodeAssist — AI coding assistant for Qt Creator
 
-![qodeassist-icon](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/dc336712-83cb-440d-8761-8d0a31de898d) QodeAssist is a comprehensive AI-powered coding assistant plugin for Qt Creator. It provides intelligent code completion, interactive chat with multiple interface options, inline quick refactoring, and AI function calling capabilities for C++ and QML development. Supporting both local providers (Ollama, llama.cpp, LM Studio) and cloud services (Claude, OpenAI, Google AI, Mistral AI), QodeAssist enhances your productivity with context-aware AI assistance, project-specific rules, and extensive customization options directly in your Qt development environment.

It works with local runtimes (Ollama, llama.cpp, LM Studio) and cloud providers (Claude, OpenAI, Google AI, Mistral), and can also run as an **MCP server** so other clients reuse its project context.

 ### Tools & Function Calling
-- Read project files
-- List and search in project
-- Access linter/compiler issues
-- Enabled by default (can be disabled)
+
+Chat and Quick Refactor can call tools to inspect and modify your project. Each tool can be individually enabled/disabled in settings.
+
+| Tool | What it does |
+|------|--------------|
+| `list_project_files` | List files in the active project(s) |
+| `find_file` | Find a file by name or partial path |
+| `read_file` | Read file contents (project or absolute path) |
+| `search_project` | Grep / symbol search across project sources |
+| `create_new_file` | Create a new empty file on disk |
+| `edit_file` | Replace content in a file (old → new) |
+| `build_project` | Build the active project and return compiler output |
+| `get_issues_list` | Read current linter / compiler diagnostics |
+| `execute_terminal_command` | Run a shell command (with confirmation) |
+| `todo_tool` | Track multi-step task progress during a conversation |
+
+### MCP Server
+
+QodeAssist can run an **MCP (Model Context Protocol) server** on `localhost`, exposing the tools above to external clients — so you can use QodeAssist's project awareness from Claude Code CLI, VS Code, Cursor, Claude Desktop, or any other MCP-capable client.
+
+- **Enable** in `Tools → Options → QodeAssist → MCP Server`
+- **Transport**: HTTP + SSE by default; a stdio bridge is provided for clients that only speak stdio (e.g. Claude Desktop)
+- **Ready-to-copy snippets** for Claude Code, VS Code, and the bridge are available via the "Show connection instructions" button in settings
