Glider

Navigate, analyze, edit, and refactor C#/.NET code with your coding agent. Glider provides compiler-backed tools through MCP and runs locally against your solution.

Install and connect

Install the .NET 10 SDK. Install Glider:

dotnet tool install --global glider

Choose your MCP client for connection instructions and a verification step.

What you can do

  • Navigate: find declarations, references, implementations, and callers across projects.
  • Analyze: inspect diagnostics, dependencies, complexity, and change impact.
  • Edit and refactor: preview source edits, rename symbols, and move types or members.
  • Clean up: identify likely-unused code and project references; format documents and organize imports.
  • Inspect dependencies: trace package usage and read external definitions.

See example tasks or the tool reference.

Scope and setup

Glider analyzes loaded C# projects. Its search_text tool also searches their declared additional files and analyzer configuration files. Use Scout for files outside that scope.

Run glider --help for CLI options. The setup guide covers automatic solution loads, workspaces, HTTP, and troubleshooting. Check compatibility for supported projects and platforms.

For a legacy .NET Framework build-host failure on Windows, retry with glider --build-host netframework. Use --msbuild-path "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\MSBuild\Current\Bin" if Glider selects the wrong toolset. Replace that path with your installed MSBuild directory. Use glider --verbose for diagnostic details.

Updates and license

Glider will always be free for non-commercial use and work on open-source projects. Other commercial use is free for now. See the LICENSE file in this package for the full terms.

Each package expires one month after release. Update Glider:

dotnet tool update --global glider

Restart your MCP client after the update.

Package expiry is separate from license duration.

Privacy and support

Glider processes code locally. Your MCP client controls what returned content reaches its model provider. Glider enables usage telemetry by default. Use --no-telemetry or DO_NOT_TRACK=1 to disable telemetry and agent feedback. The send_feedback tool can publish a public issue. See privacy and controls.
