FAQ from Super Shell MCP Server

What is the Super Shell MCP Server?

It is an MCP server that allows AI assistants like Claude to execute shell commands on the host machine with built-in security features including whitelisting, approval workflows, and disabled shell parsing by default.

How can I install Super Shell MCP Server for Claude Desktop?

The recommended way is to download the .dxt file from the releases page and double-click it while Claude Desktop is open. This installs the extension automatically without requiring developer tools.

What security measures are in place?

Commands are categorized into Safe (auto-approved), Requires Approval (user must approve), and Forbidden (blocked). Shell parsing is disabled by default to eliminate command-injection risk, and can be optionally enabled via SUPER_SHELL_USE_SHELL environment variable for trusted workflows.

Which platforms are supported?

Windows (cmd.exe, PowerShell), macOS (zsh, bash, sh), and Linux (bash, sh, zsh). Configuration paths vary by platform.

How do I enable shell parsing and what are the risks?

Set the environment variable SUPER_SHELL_USE_SHELL to true (or 1/yes/on). Enabling shell parsing reintroduces command injection risk; only enable it when you fully trust the command source and payload.
