Overview

What is File Operations MCP Server?

File Operations MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides enhanced file operation capabilities with streaming, patching, and change tracking support. It is designed for developers who need to integrate file and directory operations into MCP clients like Claude Desktop or web applications.

How to use File Operations MCP Server?

Install via Smithery (npx -y @smithery/cli install @bsmi021/mcp-file-operations-server --client claude) or manually after cloning the repository. Start with npm start for stdio transport (default for MCP clients) or npm run start:http for HTTP transport with SSE. Tools include copy_file, read_file, write_file, move_file, delete_file, append_file, make_directory, remove_directory, copy_directory, watch_directory, unwatch_directory, get_changes, and clear_changes. Configure transport mode and HTTP port via environment variables MCP_TRANSPORT and MCP_HTTP_PORT.

Frequently asked questions

1

What transport modes does the server support?

It supports two modes: stdio transport for direct integration with MCP clients like Claude Desktop, and HTTP transport with SSE for remote connections and web applications.

2

How can I install the server?

Install it automatically via Smithery using `npx -y @smithery/cli install`, or manually by cloning the repository and running `npm install`.

3

Does the server support Docker?

Yes, it provides full Docker support. You can run it with `docker run` using either stdio or HTTP transport, and mount local directories as volumes for file access.

4

What are the rate limits for operations?

Rate limits are 100 requests per minute for tools, 200 for resources, and 20 for watch operations. Exceeding these returns an error with a retry-after period.

5

How does the server ensure security?

All file paths are validated to prevent directory traversal attacks, input is sanitized, rate limiting is enforced, and proper error handling and logging are implemented.
