Posting this doubt from slack here: Do we plan to reuse the CodeHighlightsContextProvider and CodeOutlineContextProvider by any chance? I see it commented out. |
No, I think those are safe to deprecate as well. |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
- you can fully remove highlights/outline since it has been removed from the code for months
- lets provide full link to hub MCP blocks rather than pointing to e.g. the docker MCP hub, since users can't directly install MCPs from docker hub.

Github and his may require working with @TyDunn to create official MCPs for Discord, Jira, Greptile, and Google search
