What the publisher says
From the Paths-LE repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
Paths-LE: Zero Hassle Path Extraction Pull every file path out of the current file in one keystroke JavaScript, TypeScript, JSON, YAML, HTML, CSS, TOML, CSV and Environment files — and every other file, by text scan

What it does
Open a file, press Ctrl+Alt+P (Cmd+Alt+P on Mac), and every file path in the document lands in a new editor — deduplicate and sort it from there. Works in VS Code and in VS Code–based editors like Cursor and VSCodium (installable from Open VSX).
- Import analysis — extract local imports from JS/TS, including multi-line import statements; npm package names are filtered out
- Asset auditing — every src, href, srcset, url(), and @import in HTML/CSS
- Config review — path-like values from JSON/JSONC, YAML, TOML, CSV, and .env files
- Anything else — Python, Go, Markdown, XML, a Dockerfile: no parser, so a text scan finds quoted filenames and any run carrying a path separator
Install
Use it from an AI agent
The same engine runs as an MCP server, so an agent can call it directly instead of you running a command.
Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
Nothing above is checked by us. What we check is on the safety report.
Install directly
Runs npx -y paths-le-mcp on your machine. Read the scan report first; the gateway never runs local packages.
