Available tools 3

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

apply
apply_patch
Apply a single-file unified diff (patch) to text and return the patched text, or applied:false if a hunk does not match. Optional fuzz 0-2.
diff
diff_text
Compare text a with text b by lines (default), words or chars. Returns ops (equal/insert/delete), a unified diff (lines mode), optional escaped HTML redline, stats and similarity. Deterministic diff (Myers algorithm via jsdiff), not an AI or semantic comparison. Limits per side: lines mode 64 KB and 1,000 lines, words mode 8 KB, chars mode 4 KB. If the texts need more than 250 inserted plus deleted units, the API returns 422 too_different instead of a partial diff. Patches up to 64 KB apply to text up to 64 KB. No 3-way merge, no binary files. Stateless: text is not stored or logged; no URL fetching.
text
text_similarity
Similarity ratio 0-1 between two texts (2 x unchanged chars / total chars) on chars (default), words or lines granularity, plus change stats.

DiffMint by Harlo — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can DiffMint by Harlo do?
It exposes 3 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: apply_patch, diff_text, text_similarity. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is DiffMint by Harlo working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 98 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect DiffMint by Harlo?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does DiffMint by Harlo need an API key?
No. DiffMint by Harlo completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 3 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is DiffMint by Harlo?
It answers our handshake in 98 ms on average, which is faster than 92% of all working MCP servers we measure. That puts it in the quick quarter of the ecosystem. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
