basiclocalmcpservertools

A small local MCP server (stdio transport) that exposes a handful of basic Windows utilities to an MCP client such as Claude Code.

Windows only. The tools shell out to explorer.exe, notepad.exe and powershell.exe.

Install

git clone <this-repo>
cd basiclocalmcpservertools
npm install

Use with Claude Code

The included .mcp.json registers the server with a relative path (./index.js), so it works when Claude Code is started from the project directory.

To add it from anywhere else, register it with an absolute path to index.js:

claude mcp add basiclocalmcpservertools -- node "C:\\path\\to\\basiclocalmcpservertools\\index.js"

Any other MCP client works the same way: run node index.js as a stdio server.

Privacy note

list_connections sends the public remote IP addresses of your active connections to the free third-party service http://ip-api.com (plain HTTP) to resolve country/region/city/ISP. Private and loopback addresses are never sent. If you don't want that lookup, don't call list_connections.
