Filesystem MCP 🌐

GitHub Release Node.js

Welcome to the Filesystem MCP repository! This project provides a Node.js Model Context Protocol (MCP) server designed to offer secure, relative filesystem access for AI agents such as Cline and Claude.

Table of Contents

Features ✨

  • Secure Access: Ensures that AI agents interact with the filesystem in a safe manner.
  • Relative Paths: Simplifies the process of accessing files without needing absolute paths.
  • Support for AI Agents: Specifically designed to work with Cline and Claude.
  • Built with Node.js: Utilizes the power of Node.js for efficient server-side operations.
  • TypeScript Support: Offers type safety and improved developer experience.

Installation βš™οΈ

To get started with the Filesystem MCP server, follow these simple steps:

  1. Clone the Repository:

    git clone https://github.com/Tabeeh/filesystem-mcp.git
    cd filesystem-mcp
    
  2. Install Dependencies: Make sure you have Node.js installed. Then run:

    npm install
    
  3. Download the Latest Release: You can find the latest release here. Download the appropriate file and execute it.

Usage πŸš€

To start the server, run the following command:

npm start

Example Configuration

You can configure the server by modifying the config.json file. Here’s an example configuration:

{
  "port": 3000,
  "secure": true,
  "allowedAgents": ["Cline", "Claude"]
}

Making Requests

Once the server is running, you can make requests to access the filesystem. Here’s an example using curl:

curl -X GET http://localhost:3000/files/path/to/your/file

Error Handling

The server returns appropriate HTTP status codes and messages for various error scenarios. For example:

  • 404 Not Found: The requested file does not exist.
  • 403 Forbidden: Access to the file is denied.

API Documentation πŸ“š

The Filesystem MCP server exposes a simple API for interacting with the filesystem. Here are the main endpoints:
