Exposes Python Rope refactoring library capabilities to Claude Code and command-line users.

Rope provides both a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server and a command-line interface (CLI) that empowers users with Python Rope refactoring library functionality. It enables safe code refactoring with features like symbol renaming and method extraction, backed by safety checks. The tool also supports code analysis capabilities such as symbol definition finding, reference tracking, and object information. With an automatic file backup system and identical functionality across both interfaces, Rope aims to be a robust tool for enhancing Python code quality within Claude Code and command-line environments.
