What is the MCP File System Server?

The MCP File System Server is a security tool based on the Model Context Protocol (MCP) that allows users to access files in a specific directory in a read-only manner. It supports the search function, follows the .gitignore rules, and has a security mechanism to prevent path traversal.

How to use the MCP File System Server?

First, install the server. Then, run it and specify the path of the target directory. Finally, configure the corresponding connection information in a client such as Claude Desktop to start using it.

Applicable scenarios

It is suitable for scenarios that require remote and secure access to the file system, such as developers sharing project folders or enterprise internal knowledge base management.
