InfraMCP/win-mcp-server

Win MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides AI agents with the ability to interact with Windows servers using Windows Remote Management (WinRM). This server enables secure remote PowerShell execution and system management tasks on Windows hosts.

Features

• Secure Authentication: Uses domain credentials stored in macOS Keychain with TouchID authentication
• PowerShell Execution: Execute arbitrary PowerShell commands on remote Windows hosts
• System Information: Get basic system information, running services, and disk space
• Error Handling: Comprehensive error handling with helpful error messages
• Memory Safety: Credentials are cleared from memory immediately after use

Installation

From PyPI (Recommended)

pip install win-mcp-server

From Source

git clone https://github.com/rorymcmahon/win-mcp-server.git
cd win-mcp-server
pip install -e .

Configuration

Prerequisites

1. WinRM Configuration: Ensure target Windows hosts have WinRM enabled and configured.

2. Credential Setup: The server will prompt for credentials on first use and cache them securely in macOS Keychain with 4-hour expiration.

MCP Configuration

Add to your MCP settings file (e.g., ~/.config/mcp/settings.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "winrm": {
      "command": "winrm-mcp-server"
    }
  }
}
