filesystem
Python server implementing Model Context Protocol (MCP) for filesystem operations.
The Filesystem MCP Server is a Python-based server that implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to facilitate various filesystem operations. It allows users to perform tasks such as reading and writing files, creating, listing, and deleting directories, moving files and directories, searching for files, and retrieving file metadata. The server is designed to operate within specified directories, ensuring that all operations are contained within a defined scope. This makes it a secure and efficient tool for managing filesystem tasks programmatically.
