MCP Shell Server
MCP Shell 服务器
用于执行实现模型上下文协议 (MCP) 的 shell 命令的安全服务器。该服务器允许远程执行授权的 shell 命令,并支持通过 stdin 输入。
特征
安全命令执行:只有授权的命令才能执行
标准输入支持:通过 stdin 将输入传递给命令
综合输出:返回 stdout、stderr、退出代码和执行时间
使用 Shell 运算符的安全性:验证 Shell 运算符(;、&&、||、|)后的命令
超时控制:设置命令的最大执行时间

pip install mcp-shell-server使用
启动服务器
ALLOW_COMMANDS="ls,cat,echo" uvx mcp-shell-server
# Ou usando o alias
ALLOWED_COMMANDS="ls,cat,echo" uvx mcp-shell-serverALLOW_COMMANDS环境变量(或其别名ALLOWED_COMMANDS )指定可以执行哪些命令。命令可以用逗号分隔,周围可以有空格。
ALLOW_COMMANDS 或 ALLOWED_COMMANDS 的有效格式:
ALLOW_COMMANDS="ls,cat,echo" # Formato básico
ALLOWED_COMMANDS="ls ,echo, cat" # Com espaços (usando alias)
ALLOW_COMMANDS="ls, cat , echo" # Múltiplos espaços请求格式
# Execução básica de comando
{
"command": ["ls", "-l", "/tmp"]
}
# Comando com entrada stdin
{
"command": ["cat"],
"stdin": "Hello, World!"
}
# Comando com timeout
{
"command": ["long-running-process"],
"timeout": 30 # Tempo máximo de execução em segundos
}
# Comando com diretório de trabalho e timeout
{
"command": ["grep", "-r", "pattern"],
"directory": "/path/to/search",
"timeout": 60
}响应格式
成功响应:
{
"stdout": "saída do comando",
"stderr": "",
"status": 0,
"execution_time": 0.123
}错误响应:
{
"error": "Comando não permitido: rm",
"status": 1,
"stdout": "",
"stderr": "Comando não permitido: rm",
"execution_time": 0
}安全
该服务器实施了多项安全措施:
命令白名单:只有明确允许的命令才能执行
Shell 运算符验证:shell 运算符(;、&&、||、|)后的命令也会根据白名单进行验证
无 Shell 注入:命令直接执行,无需 Shell 解释

TDQS
Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?
No annotations are provided, so the description carries full burden for behavioral disclosure. It mentions 'Comandos permitidos: ' but doesn't specify which commands are allowed, security implications, or output behavior. This is a significant gap for a shell execution tool, as it lacks critical safety and operational details.
Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.
Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?
The description is extremely brief but inefficiently structured, with 'Comandos permitidos: ' left incomplete. It fails to convey necessary information concisely, as the trailing text suggests missing content rather than purposeful brevity.
Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.
Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?
For a shell execution tool with no annotations and no output schema, the description is insufficient. It doesn't explain return values, error handling, security restrictions, or allowed commands, leaving critical gaps in understanding how the tool behaves and what results to expect.
Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.
Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?
Schema description coverage is 100%, with all parameters well-documented in the input schema. The description adds no additional parameter semantics beyond what the schema provides, such as examples or constraints on allowed commands. This meets the baseline for high schema coverage.
Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.
Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?
The description states 'Execute um comando shell' which translates to 'Execute a shell command', providing a clear verb+resource combination. However, it's incomplete with 'Comandos permitidos: ' trailing off, making it vague about what commands are actually allowed. No sibling tools exist for differentiation, but the incomplete nature reduces clarity.
Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.
Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?
The description provides no guidance on when to use this tool versus alternatives, prerequisites, or exclusions. It only states the basic purpose without context about appropriate scenarios or limitations, leaving the agent with no usage direction beyond the obvious.
Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

Scored across 1 tool
With only one tool, there is no possibility for confusion or overlap between tools. The tool 'shell_execute' has a single, clearly defined purpose of executing shell commands, so disambiguation is perfect.
Since there is only one tool, naming consistency is inherently perfect. The tool name 'shell_execute' follows a clear verb_noun pattern, but with no other tools to compare, it sets no pattern to deviate from.
A single tool is too few for a server named 'MCP Shell Server', which implies broader shell-related functionality. While the tool covers basic command execution, the scope feels thin, lacking tools for tasks like listing files, checking processes, or managing environment variables that are typical in shell operations.
The tool set is severely incomplete for a shell server. It only provides execution, missing essential operations like file manipulation (e.g., read, write, delete), directory navigation, process management, or system information retrieval. This will likely cause agent failures when trying to perform common shell tasks beyond simple command execution.
