This server enables fast, system-wide file and folder search on Windows by leveraging the voidtools Everything index engine, providing two tools: search and status.
search: Perform powerful queries across your system using the Everything index.
Supports wildcards (*, ?), operators, and filters (e.g., ext:cs, path:D:\source)
Filter results to files only or folders only
Enable case-sensitive matching with match_case
Match against the full path instead of just the filename with match_path
Limit searches to a specific folder subtree using scope_path
Control result count (default 100, max 1000) via max_results
Returns results as JSON
status: Check the health and availability of the server's dependencies, including the Everything SDK DLL, the Everything tray client (Everything.exe), and the resolved es.exe CLI path.
Click on "Install Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type @ followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@@quickerhub/everything-mcp find all .cs files under D:\source\repos"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
Fast cross-project file search for AI agents via voidtools Everything on Windows.
Uses the Everything SDK DLL (same approach as QuickerPc), not es.exe.
Published by QuickerHub.

→ everything-mcp.exe (MCP stdio)
→ Everything64.dll (bundled SDK IPC client)
→ Everything.exe (user-installed tray client + index engine)The bundled DLL is only an IPC client. Everything.exe must be installed and running to maintain the file index.
