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)
