MCP File Explorer
This project is my first MCP server that I built to learn how to connect an AI to local files.
Why this project?
I am a Big Data student in Kenitra and I wanted to understand how Claude can access my computer via the MCP protocol. This project taught me how to create an MCP server from scratch.

What this project does
It allows Claude to read .txt, .csv, and .md files on my computer using the MCP protocol.
How I built this
I created an MCP server with Node.js
I created a tool called lire_fichier
I tested it with Anthropic's official MCP inspector
Installation
npm install node server.js
What I learned
How the MCP protocol works
The difference between client, server, and tool
How to connect an AI to the file system
