🐞 dnSpy-MCP - Simple Debugging for .NET Programs

🤖 About dnSpy-MCP

dnSpy-MCP is a tool that helps you examine and debug .NET programs. It works from the command line, meaning you type commands instead of clicking buttons. It runs without a visible interface, making it easier to use in the background or through scripts. It also has support for a protocol called MCP, which allows other programs to connect to it for more advanced control.

This tool is useful if you want to look inside software created with .NET. You can see what it does, find issues, or analyze its behavior without needing a programming background.

dnSpy-MCP works on Windows computers and helps with various tasks:

• Finding bugs in .NET programs
• Looking at how .NET files are built
• Testing software security
• Analyzing programs flagged as suspicious
