# File System MCP Server - Project Summary
## 🎉 Project Completed Successfully!
All 12 tasks from the implementation plan have been completed, resulting in a fully functional File System MCP Server.
## ✅ What Was Built
### Core Components
1. **Configuration Management** (`config.py`) - JSON-based configuration with validation
2. **Safety Manager** (`safety.py`) - Security checks, backups, and path validation
3. **File Operations Manager** (`file_operations.py`) - All file system operations
4. **Data Models** (`models.py`) - Structured result types and metadata
5. **MCP Server** (`server.py`) - Full MCP protocol implementation
6. **CLI Interface** (`main.py`) - Command-line interface with argument parsing
7. **Logging System** (`logging_config.py`) - Structured logging with file rotation
### Features Implemented
- ✅ **Safe file reading** with binary detection and encoding handling
- ✅ **File creation** with overwrite protection and directory creation
- ✅ **File updates** with automatic backup and rollback on failure
- ✅ **Directory listing** with pattern matching and recursive traversal
- ✅ **Safe file deletion** with backup recovery (no permanent deletion)
- ✅ **File metadata** extraction with comprehensive information
- ✅ **Security safeguards** with protected path checking
- ✅ **Backup system** with timestamped backups and restoration
- ✅ **Error handling** with structured responses and recovery suggestions
- ✅ **Configuration management** with validation and example generation
### MCP Tools Available
1. `read_file` - Read file contents with metadata
2. `write_file` - Create new files with safety checks
3. `update_file` - Update files with backup protection
4. `list_directory` - List directory contents with filtering
5. `delete_file` - Safe deletion with backup
6. `get_file_info` - Get detailed file metadata
## 🧪 Testing & Validation
### Core Functionality Test Results
```
🎉 All core functionality tests passed!
📋 Summary:
• File operations: ✅ Write, Read, Update, Delete, List, Info
• Safety features: ✅ Backups, Path validation, Protected paths
• Advanced features: ✅ Pattern matching, Recursive listing
• Configuration: ✅ Save, Load, Validate
• Error handling: ✅ Security errors, File not found
```
### Test Coverage
- ✅ Unit tests for all components

## 🚀 How to Use
### 1. Test Core Functionality (No Dependencies)
```bash
python test_core_functionality.py
```
### 2. Install MCP Dependencies and Run Full Server
```bash
pip install mcp python-magic aiofiles
python run_server.py --help
```
### 3. Create Configuration
```bash
python -c "from src.file_system_mcp_server.cli_utils import create_example_config; create_example_config('config.json')"
```
### 4. Run with Kiro
Add the server configuration to your Kiro MCP settings and use the available tools.
## 🔒 Security Features
- **Protected Paths**: System directories are blocked from modification
- **Path Validation**: All paths are resolved and validated
- **File Size Limits**: Configurable limits prevent resource exhaustion
- **Backup System**: All destructive operations create backups first
- **Extension Filtering**: Optional file extension restrictions
- **Error Handling**: Structured error responses with recovery suggestions
## 📊 Performance Features
- **Async Operations**: All I/O operations are asynchronous
- **Binary Detection**: Avoids processing large binary files
- **Depth Limits**: Configurable recursion limits for directory traversal
- **Pattern Matching**: Efficient file filtering with glob patterns
- **Streaming Ready**: Architecture supports future streaming enhancements
## 🎯 Achievement Summary
This project successfully demonstrates:
- **Spec-driven development** with clear requirements → design → implementation
