Filesystem MCP Server

The official Model Context Protocol server for secure filesystem access — read, write, search, and navigate files from AI clients within configured directory boundaries.

Category: Automation
License: MIT

01 // How It Works

Runs as an MCP server exposing filesystem tools (read_file, write_file, list_directory, search_files) over the Model Context Protocol via stdio. AI clients like Claude Desktop connect and can safely operate on local files within the directories you allowlist.

02 // Setup Guide

  1. 1

    Install Node.js 18 or newer

  2. 2

    Add the server in your client config (e.g. Claude Desktop claude_desktop_config.json) with npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem /path/to/allowed/dir

  3. 3

    Restart the AI client to load the MCP server

  4. 4

    Ask the client to read, create, or search files inside the allowed directory
