MCP Filesystem Server

A production-ready Model Context Protocol server that gives agents scoped filesystem access. Allow-list the directories, set size limits, and get an audit trail of every read and write.

Tools exposed

• read_file(path)
• write_file(path, contents)
• list_dir(path)
• search(glob)

Security model

• Path allow-list — access is denied outside configured roots
• Size & rate limits — prevents runaway reads/writes
• Audit log — every tool call is recorded

Install

npx nuclexa install mcp-filesystem-server --target mcp

Then add it to your MCP config and restart the client.
