"Shell" matching MCP servers:

Provides direct, unsandboxed local machine access via filesystem, Python, Node.js, and shell commands for MCP agents.

Enables remote shell command execution and file operations with restricted/unrestricted modes, background tasks, safe editing, and code search.

Enables human-approved SSH terminal sessions and confined SFTP file operations for SSH-configured devices, with user-controlled terminal and file explorer.

MCP server enabling AI assistants to securely operate remote servers via persistent SSH sessions, with tools for command execution, file transfer, directory listing, and system monitoring.

Gives an agent full shell access on Termux with file read/write/edit capabilities.

Enables execution of shell commands through a terminal tool and provides access to a custom readme file from OneDrive Desktop or local Desktop directory.

Provides a deterministic set of 40 cross-platform command tools as an MCP server, replacing unsafe raw shell calls with structured JSON inputs and outputs for file system, process, network, and git operations.

Provides a controlled escape hatch for director-mode AI agents to run shell commands, write and edit files, execute Python code, supervise detached background jobs, acquire locks, and capture screenshots.

Enables batched filesystem operations on allowed directories and standalone Windows shell command execution, including background jobs and interactive console windows, through MCP tools.

A minimal MCP server for UW Hyak (klone) that exposes tools to run shell commands and write files remotely, along with documentation resources for klone-specific utilities.

An open MCP server that gives any AI agent SSH access to remote Linux/Unix machines — shell commands, file read/write, and SFTP transfers.

Outbound-only remote shell, detached long-running jobs, and temporary file courier for AI agents. Hosted Streamable HTTP plus stdio via npx -y @aicommander/mcp.

Enforces mandatory human approval before LLM agents can edit files, create files, or execute shell commands, using session tokens and audit logging.

Provides comprehensive PC control capabilities including file operations (read, write, edit, delete), directory management, file search, and shell command execution through the Model Context Protocol.

A collection of Model Context Protocol servers that enable Claude Desktop to provide development assistance capabilities with filesystem, Git, shell command, and web search functionality without incurring API usage costs.

MCP Bridge is a local-first Linux/Windows desktop app connecting ChatGPT to approved files and Chrome through authorized OpenAI tunnels, with optional shell tools. The Glama-hosted v0.1.0 release is a restricted READ-ONLY documentation demo: five tools can access only bundled public examples, not your computer, browser, credentials, shell, or files.

Enables AI agents to interact with the Linux desktop through desktop notifications, interactive dialogs, shell command execution, and privileged command execution.

Connects an MCP client to a remote Linux/Unix host over SSH, enabling remote shell commands, file access, port forwarding, and VS Code Remote-SSH URI generation.

A Model Context Protocol server for secure local system operations, enabling shell command execution and file management via a standardized interface.

Enables ChatGPT web to interact with local Windows/WSL shell and code workspaces via an MCP server, providing file access, shell execution, and snapshot-based workspace management with per-command authorization.
