mdsel

Use 
mcp__mdsel__mdsel
tool for markdown files:
  1. Index first: 
    files: ["README.md"]
    (no selector)
  2. Then select: 
    files: ["README.md"], selector: "h2.4,h3.6"
0-based indexing. Always index before selecting.
NEVER use the 
*
wildcard selector. If you need the entire document, use the Read tool instead - that's what it's for. The purpose of mdsel is selective reading to save tokens.

When to use Read instead

Use the Read tool for markdown files when:
  • You need the entire file content (don't use mdsel with 
    *
    or 
    root
    - just use Read)
  • You plan to edit the file (Edit tool requires prior Read)
