system-mcp

A local MCP server (Python + uv) that exposes system telemetry tools:

  • CPU usage and core/frequency metrics

  • RAM and swap usage

  • Disk usage and IO

  • Battery status

  • Network counters

  • Running task/process stats

  • GPU metrics (via nvidia-smi when available)

1) Install

uv sync

Related MCP server: System Info MCP Server

2) Run server (stdio transport)

uv run system-mcp

3) MCP client configuration example

Use this command in your MCP client config:

  • Command: uv

  • Args: run, system-mcp

  • Working directory: this project root

Example JSON snippet:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "system-mcp": {
      "command": "uv",
      "args": ["run", "system-mcp"],
      "cwd": "k:/Tech/Projects/system_mcp"
    }
  }
}

Exposed tools

  • system_overview

  • cpu_metrics(sample_seconds=1.0)

  • memory_metrics

  • disk_metrics(path="C:\\")

  • battery_metrics

  • network_metrics

  • running_tasks(limit=10, sort_by="cpu")

  • gpu_metrics

Notes

  • gpu_metrics depends on nvidia-smi being available in PATH.

  • On systems without battery/GPU, tools return availability flags and messages instead of failing.

    TDQS

    A3.7/5.0

    Scored across 8 tools

    Disambiguation5/5

    Each tool targets a distinct system component (battery, CPU, disk, GPU, memory, network, processes, and overview) with no functional overlap.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    All tool names follow a consistent snake_case pattern with descriptive suffixes like _metrics, _tasks, _overview.

    Tool Count5/5

    8 tools is well-scoped for a system monitoring server, covering major resources without being excessive or too sparse.

    Completeness4/5

    Core system metrics are covered, but lacks deeper details like per-interface network stats or sensor data, which are minor gaps.
