Everything MCP
基于 Voidtools Everything 的极速文件搜索 MCP 服务器 Ultra-lightweight MCP server for Voidtools Everything search engine
📖 简介 | Introduction
Everything MCP 是一个极轻量的 MCP (Model Context Protocol) 服务器,将 Voidtools Everything 的极速文件搜索能力暴露给 AI 代理(Claude Code、Codex、DeepSeek Harness 等)。
通过调用 Everything.exe -create-file-list 导出搜索结果并解析 EFU 格式,实现毫秒级文件检索。
English: Everything MCP is an ultra-lightweight MCP server that exposes Voidtools Everything's blazing-fast file search to AI agents (Claude Code, Codex, DeepSeek Harness, etc.). It uses Everything.exe -create-file-list to export search results and parses the EFU format.

✨ 特性 | Features
⚡ 极速搜索 — 基于 Everything 的 NTFS 索引,毫秒级检索百万文件
🪶 极致轻量 — 单文件 5KB,零冗余代码,秒级启动
🔧 零配置集成 — 自动适配 Claude Code、Codex、DSH
🎯 智能触发 — 配置 CLAUDE.md 让 AI 自动识别何时调用
🪟 原生 Windows — 完美适配 Windows NTFS 文件系统
English:
⚡ Blazing fast — Leverages Everything's NTFS index for millisecond search across millions of files
🪶 Ultra lightweight — Single 5KB file, zero bloat, instant startup
🔧 Zero-config integration — Auto-adapts to Claude Code, Codex, DSH
🎯 Smart triggering — CLAUDE.md configures AI to auto-select when to search
🪟 Native Windows — Perfectly optimized for Windows NTFS
📋 前提条件 | Prerequisites
Windows 操作系统 (需要 NTFS 文件系统)
Everything v1.4+ 已安装并以管理员权限运行
Node.js v18+(测试环境 v24)
npm(用于安装依赖)
💡 Everything 需要管理员权限以读取 NTFS 索引。可在 Everything → 工具 → 选项 → 常规中勾选"以管理员身份运行",或安装 Everything 服务。
English:
Windows OS (requires NTFS filesystem)
Everything v1.4+ installed and running as administrator
Node.js v18+ (tested with v24)
npm (for dependency installation)
💡 Everything needs admin privileges to read the NTFS index. Check "Run as administrator" in Everything → Tools → Options → General, or install the Everything service.
