Unix MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for read-only Unix-like system administration, diagnostics, and troubleshooting.

This project is a fork of the RHEL Lightspeed Linux MCP Server, extended with macOS diagnostics and native macOS tooling support.

Features

  • Read-Only Operations: All tools are strictly read-only for safe diagnostics

  • Remote SSH Execution: Execute commands on remote systems via SSH with key-based authentication

  • Multi-Host Management: Connect to different remote hosts in the same session

  • Comprehensive Diagnostics: System info, services, processes, logs, network, storage, and macOS-specific power/security diagnostics

  • Configurable Log Access: Control which log files can be accessed via environment variables

  • Native Platform Support: Uses systemd/journald on Linux and launchd/unified logging on macOS
