🔌 aki-mcp-sv - Connect Claude to Your Computer Safely

🎯 What Is This?

aki-mcp-sv is a small helper program that runs quietly on your Windows computer. It creates a secure bridge between your computer and Claude AI (the AI assistant from Anthropic). With this tool, Claude can safely access files, run commands, and search through your system - but only when you give permission.

Think of it as a trusted messenger. Claude asks for something, the messenger checks with you first, and then delivers the request to your computer. Nothing happens without your approval.

🔒 Why Would I Need This?

If you use Claude AI at claude.ai, you might want it to help with tasks that involve your own files and programs. Without aki-mcp-sv, Claude can only work with text you copy and paste. With aki-mcp-sv, Claude can:

• 📂 Open and read files you specify

• 💻 Run command-line tools and scripts

• 🔍 Search through your documents and folders

• ✍️ Save notes or write content directly to files

All of this happens through a secure connection that uses your Google account for verification.

🚀 Getting Started

Step 1: Download the Program

Visit this link to download the application.

You'll land on a page showing the latest release. Look for the file named something like aki-mcp-sv-windows.zip and click it to download.

Step 2: Run the Installer

Once the download finishes, open your Downloads folder and find the downloaded file. Double-click it to start the setup process. If Windows asks for permission, click "Yes" or "Run anyway" - this is normal for new software.

Step 3: Start the Application

After installation, you'll see the aki-mcp-sv icon on your desktop or in your Start Menu. Click it to launch. A small window will appear showing the status as "Running" or "Active". Keep this window open while using Claude.

📋 What Happens Next?

When the program is running, it creates a special internet address (like a secret door) using something called "Tailscale Funnel". This allows Claude AI to talk to your computer securely from anywhere in the world - but only with your explicit permission.

Every time Claude wants to read a file or run a command, you'll see a pop-up asking: "Allow this action?" You can choose:

• Allow - Let this one request through

• Deny - Block this request

• Always Allow - Trust this app in the future (use carefully)

🔐 Is This Safe?

Safety is the top priority. Here's what protects you:

1. OAuth 2.1 Authentication - You sign in with your Google account. Nobody else can use your connection.

2. Tailscale Encryption - All communication is encrypted end-to-end. Nobody can spy on your data.

3. Permission Prompts - Claude cannot access anything without you clicking "Allow" first.

4. Local Only - The program doesn't send your data anywhere except to Claude AI, and only what you approve.

🧑‍💻 For Advanced Users (But Not Required)

If you're curious about the technical details: this program is a "Model Context Protocol" (MCP) server. MCP is a standard way for AI assistants to interact with external tools and data sources. The "sv" in the name stands for "server version".

You don't need to understand any of this to use the program. It handles all technical complexity in the background.

🆘 Troubleshooting Guide

Problem: The program won't start

Solution: Make sure you have Windows 10 or newer. Try right-clicking the icon and selecting "Run as Administrator" one time.

Problem: Claude can't connect

Solution: Check that the aki-mcp-sv window shows "Running" or "Active". Also verify your internet is working. Restart both the program and your browser.

Problem: Permission prompts don't appear

Solution: Some browsers block pop-ups. Check your browser settings and allow pop-ups, or temporarily switch to a different browser.

Problem: The download link doesn't work

Solution: Visit the release page directly and try a different download source if multiple options are listed. Refresh the page after a few minutes.

Problem: I get a security warning from Windows

Solution: This is normal for new programs. Click "More Info" and then "Run Anyway". You only need to do this the first time.
