Strings-LE tools (1)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postsRead from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.
extract_stringsExtract every string value from a document. Parses JSON, YAML, CSV, TOML, INI and dotenv; for any other format it falls back to quoted strings \u2014 single, double or backtick \u2014 so a format is optional but unquoted prose yields nothing. Returns the values themselves, in document order, not their positions.

What the publisher says
From the Strings-LE repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
Strings-LE: Zero Hassle String Extraction Pull every string value out of the current file in one keystroke JSON/JSONC, YAML, CSV/TSV, TOML, INI, Environment files, and ten source languages

What it does
Open a file, press Ctrl+Alt+E (Cmd+Alt+E on Mac), and every string value 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).
- i18n prep — flatten locale files (JSON/YAML) into a clean list of translatable values
- Config review — see every string value in a TOML/INI/.env file at a glance
- CSV mining — pull one column, several, or all of them; stream very large files
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.
extract_strings(content, format?, filename?, dedupe?, maxResults?)Returns the values in document order, capped at 500 by default with meta.truncated. A format is optional — any unrecognised format falls back to quoted strings.
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 string-le-mcp on your machine. Read the scan report first; the gateway never runs local packages.
