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 β¨
- 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 βοΈ

npm start
Example Configuration
You can configure the server by modifying the config.json file. Hereβs 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. Hereβs an example using curl:
curl -X GET http://localhost:3000/files/path/to/your/file
