Enables Open WebUI to execute bash commands for coding tasks in a persistent projects workspace, with configurable timeouts and output limits.
README
owui-bash-mcp
Single-endpoint FastAPI OpenAPI tool server that gives Open WebUI a bash tool
for coding. Runs as the dedicated unix user owui-coder, confined to a
persistent projects workspace.
Endpoint
POST /run_bash — { command, cwd?, timeout? } → { stdout, stderr, exit_code, timed_out, truncated, cwd }.
Runs bash -lc <command> in PROJECTS_ROOT/<cwd>. Filesystem state persists
between calls; cwd does not (pass it each call).
Config (env)
BASH_MCP_PROJECTS_ROOT(default/home/owui-coder/projects)BASH_MCP_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT(300s),BASH_MCP_MAX_TIMEOUT(1800s)BASH_MCP_MAX_OUTPUT(100000 bytes/stream, tail kept)
Run
uvicorn app:app --host 127.0.0.1 --port 8774
(8770–8773 are already taken on this host by proton-mcp / mcpo.)
Deploy
systemd system unit owui-bash-mcp.service (User=owui-coder), registered in
OWUI as tool server http://127.0.0.1:8774. See diverse/deploy.
Test
