Manito
Efficiently query and explore Unix man pages.
About
Manito is an MCP tool designed for seamless querying and exploration of Unix man pages. It enhances the standard man page experience by providing a robust fallback mechanism: if a specific man page is unavailable, it intelligently retrieves and displays the command's help output, typically from `--help`. This ensures users always get relevant information, making it a comprehensive resource for command-line documentation within an MCP environment.
