"Shell" matching MCP servers:

Connects a Zotero research library to AI assistants so users can search items by title, author, tag, collection, full text, or meaning, read metadata and PDF content, add annotations, and add or organize papers by DOI, URL, ISBN, or BibTeX. It works in local or web mode and is available both as an MCP server for chat apps and as a CLI plus agent skill for shell-based agents.

Enables read-only listing of the cookbooks on an Eat Your Books shelf and searching those books for recipe references by ingredient, dish, or keyword, returning links, authors, page numbers, ingredients, and categories. Connects to an already signed-in local Chrome session for authentication, exposing the same service as the CLI through two read-only tools.

Stdio MCP server over the Briefing Service REST API: hourly LLM-ranked news briefings (AI, frontier labs, markets, sports, world) as structured JSON, rendered e-ink pages and a free provenance dump. Six read-only HTTPS tools, no shell, no secrets required; Dockerfile and glama.json in the repo root.

Enables AI agents to capture, search, relate, review, and safely update a local-first Markdown knowledge vault through typed operations such as inventory, retrieve, run_view, update, add_attachment, trash, and restore. Agents get validated access to personal notes and attachments without a generic shell or arbitrary filesystem access.

Enables agents to discover Kujo projects, primitives, tooling, showcases, agent skills, workflows, and WebOps capabilities, retrieve exact source-backed records with install text and version notes, and get small deterministic stack recommendations. All seven tools are read-only, deterministic, and idempotent, with no write, fetch, filesystem, shell, install, or deployment capability.

Provides 20 essential tools including HTTP requests, web search, file I/O, shell commands, and persistent memory for any MCP client, with zero configuration required.

A plug-and-play MCP toolkit providing AI agents with web search (Chinese sources prioritized), file operations, and shell command execution capabilities.

A NAS music library downloader shell that aggregates multiple sources, writes ID3 tags, and exposes MCP tools for AI agents to search, download, and manage music.

Enables AI agents to search whole NTFS volumes by filename without any background GUI, parsing the $MFT directly and refreshing results from the USN Journal on demand. Supports an Everything-compatible query subset (boolean, path:, ext:, size:, date and regex filters), plus index status and full rebuild tools.

A lightweight MCP server for file manipulation, code searching, and shell command execution, with optional semantic search using local embeddings.

Enables AI assistants to safely read local files and directories from explicitly configured roots, without write, edit, or shell execution capabilities.

Runs local MCP servers (filesystem, search, read-only shell) exposed via Tailscale Funnel with OAuth, enabling claude.ai to securely access local files and run shell commands through a custom connector.

A local stdio MCP server that exposes tools for running evidence-first research with source-linked, replayable reports, plus replay, citation-audit, and Agent Reach health checks. It preserves fetched page text, exact quote offsets, hashes, and run traces so a client can verify that quotes match retrieved sources, while withholding arbitrary shell or local-file access.

A TypeScript prototype for an MCP-style registry providing local utility tools for shell command execution, filesystem access, and search functionality. It features Zod input validation and project manifest resource exposure for embedding into larger MCP implementations.

A Streamable HTTP MCP server that packages QMD search and document retrieval with bounded index-maintenance operations, without exposing arbitrary shell execution.

Enables AI assistants to search, read, and compare publicly ranked applications, chatbots, and labeled news records with dated citations, and to submit new applications or check private submission status using email OTP bearer tokens.

An ed(1)-inspired MCP server that provides a single-character command protocol for managing Git repositories, GitHub actions, and Fravia web searches. It is optimized to minimize LLM token usage while performing version control and search tasks through concise POSIX shell scripts.

Enables agents to search a catalog of SKILL.md procedures, fetch individual skill instructions and supporting resources, and obtain advisory multi-step routes through read-only tools such as search_skills, route_request, get_skill, and get_skill_resource. It returns metadata and suggestions only, never executing skills, running shell commands, or granting authority.

Enables scraping and searching documentation websites using semantic or keyword search, with support for multiple deployment modes.

Local semantic search over Claude Code sessions and shell command history, exposed to Claude Code as an MCP tool. Everything is indexed into one vector space and runs entirely on your machine.
