| name | kronk-mcp |
| description | Using the Kronk MCP service in the default agent configuration, where Kronk is wired directly into the host (OpenCode, Kilo, Pi) as an MCP server. Exposes `fuzzy_edit` (fallback for the host's exact-match edit when whitespace / line-endings cause it to miss) and `web_search` (Brave-powered). Load whenever you need web research, or when a host edit fails on exact matching. |
Kronk MCP (default config)
Kronk MCP is registered directly with the host (server name kronk
or Kronk). No rote layer.
Tool selection
| Operation | Use |
|---|
| Web research | web_search (no host alternative) |
| Modify an existing file | Host's native edit/replace first; only on exact-match failure (whitespace, line-endings, indentation drift) call fuzzy_edit |
| Create / read / shell | Host's native tools — not fuzzy_edit |
fuzzy_edit is a fallback. Don't reach for it pre-emptively.
Hard rules
- Never call
http://localhost:9000/mcp directly via curl/wget.
- Try the host's native edit tool first. Only call
fuzzy_edit
after exact-match fails.
- If a tool returns
is_error: true, stop and report. Do not
retry blindly or improvise an alternative transport.
Tool names per host
- OpenCode, Kilo: prefixed →
kronk_fuzzy_edit, kronk_web_search.
- Pi (
directTools: true): bare → fuzzy_edit, web_search.
If unsure, list the host's available tools and match by suffix.
fuzzy_edit schema
| Field | Meaning |
|---|
file_path | Absolute path to existing file. |
old_string | Exact text to replace (unique). |
new_string | Replacement text. |
Workflow: Read the file → pick a uniquely identifiable
old_string (add 1–2 lines of context if ambiguous) → call
fuzzy_edit → re-Read to verify.
web_search schema
| Field | Meaning |
|---|
query | Search query string. |
count | Optional result count. |
Returns formatted text (title / URL / description). For full page
contents, follow up with the host's web-page reader against a
specific URL.
