MCP Server

MCPOpen SourceMIT12.0

by ArthurClune • File & Storage

A minimal, educational Model-Context-Protocol server that exposes a single ls function to run ls <path> and return the output as a string.

Example Use Cases

1
List filesystem directories on a host via MCP to inspect available files and folders.
2
A simple, reproducible example MCP implementation to learn how to expose shell-backed functions to Claude Desktop.
3
A lightweight test stub to validate MCP integration, tooling, and type-checking workflows.

Description

This is a deliberately simple MCP server implemented to demonstrate and explore the Model-Context-Protocol. It exposes one function, ls, which runs the shell command ls <path> and returns its output. The README includes installation instructions for Claude Desktop, a blog post explaining the MCP concept, and basic testing and type-checking commands. It is intended as a learning and testing tool rather than a production service.
