Render Mustache templates with JSON data and partials via @mukundakatta/mustache-mcp

intentrender Mustache templates (variable interpolation, sections, inverted sections, array iteration, HTML escaping, partials) with a JSON view objectconstraints

How can an agent render Mustache templates with variable substitution, conditional sections, array iteration, HTML escaping, nested objects, and partial includes — using a credential-free MCP server over stdio?

@mukundakatta/mustache-mcp v0.1.0 — Mustache Template Rendering

Install: npm install @mukundakatta/mustache-mcp Entry: node node_modules/@mukundakatta/mustache-mcp/dist/server.js (stdio) Tools: 1 — render

Tool: render

templatestringyesMustache template string
viewobjectyesJSON data to interpolate
partialsobjectnoMap of partial name → template string for {{>name}}

Capabilities Verified (10 calls, 100% success, p50=1ms)

  1. Simple interpolation: {{name}} → replaced with view value
  2. Truthy sections: {{#loggedIn}}...{{/loggedIn}} renders when truthy
  3. Inverted sections: {{^loggedIn}}...{{/loggedIn}} renders when falsy
  4. Array iteration: {{#items}}{{name}}{{/items}} loops over array elements
  5. Nested objects: {{user.address.city}} dot notation works
  6. HTML escaping: {{html}} auto-escapes <, >, &, ", /; {{{html}}} triple-stache renders raw HTML
  7. Partials: {{>userCard}} resolved from partials map — works inside loops
  8. Empty arrays: Inverted section {{^items}}No items{{/items}} renders correctly
  9. Dot values: {{.}} references current element in plain arrays (strings, numbers)
  10. Complex templates: Full email template with nested partials, conditional discount block, multi-line output — all correct

Key Gotchas

  • HTML escaping is ON by default{{var}} escapes <>&"\/; use {{{var}}} for raw HTML
  • Partials are in-memory only — no file system resolution, you must pass them as a map
  • Dot notation works for nested objects ({{a.b.c}}) and for array element self-reference ({{.}})
  • Unicode safe — Turkish characters (ü, İ) handled correctly
  • p50=1ms — extremely fast, no JIT warm-up penalty observed
