Enables AeyeStudio AI chat to securely access and control local PC resources such as files, Excel, clipboard, apps, and shell through a localhost MCP agent with user approval.

Enables supervised PowerShell execution on Windows, allowing the DeepSeek agent to run local commands and manage files safely through a single tool.

Enables an AI agent to operate a spare Android phone through MCP: capture screenshots, inspect UI controls, tap/swipe, input Chinese text, launch apps, and optionally run rooted shell commands or transfer files. It also supports a live web console for remote viewing and control.

Local MCP server enabling Codex and ChatGPT to read/write files, execute commands, manage processes, use Git, and inspect images on the user's machine with full privileges.

Enables AI assistants to perform local development tasks on Windows by reading and editing files, running commands, and controlling browser and desktop tools, all within isolated workspaces. Supports secure remote access via an optional tunnel for ChatGPT clients.

A lightweight, stdio-based MCP server enabling AI assistants to perform local file system operations like reading, writing, searching, and executing commands.

Enables Notion AI to interact with local files, execute shell commands, and delegate complex tasks to local AI agents. Provides file operations, command execution, and task delegation capabilities for local workspace management.

Enables ChatGPT to securely access local files, shell commands, processes, Skills, and external MCP servers through a controlled local bridge with lock/unlock permissions and a Windows desktop control center.

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.

Enables ChatGPT web to safely read and modify only explicitly allowed local project files through OpenAI Secure MCP Tunnel, including git operations, file edits, and running project scripts, while enforcing strict security boundaries.

A Zsh execution tool for Claude Code providing yield-based command execution, PTY mode for interactive programs, circuit breaker for timeout protection, and adaptive learning (A.L.A.N.) for retry detection and proactive insights.

Minimal MCP server exposing a single tool, run_date, to execute the local date command via a Streamable HTTP endpoint.

Stateless command execution and process management MCP server for Claude. Enables searching file contents, executing commands with safety limits, listing processes, and terminating processes.

Interactive, streaming SSH tool for LLM agents that enables spawning long-running remote commands with live line-by-line output, signal handling, stdin input, and SFTP file transfer.

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.

A cooperative guardrail for AI agents that blocks destructive shell commands, SQL statements, or cloud operations until a human approves them out-of-band, with a tamper-evident local ledger.

A production-ready MCP server that enables AI assistants to execute shell commands, manage files, monitor system resources, and automate complex workflows with advanced features like stock tracking and web automation.

MCP server that lets Claude Code drive the local Codex CLI as a sub-agent for concurrent queries and optional file/shell actions, using the CLI's existing login and sessions.

An MCP server that lets AI agents list sessions, read terminal screens, type commands, and run commands (with optional waiting for exit status) in Rex terminal blocks on the local machine through the rex CLI. It exposes a single allowlisted passthrough CLI tool plus a guide tool, deliberately excluding destructive or cross-host operations.

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

A high-performance MCP server that manages persistent SSH sessions via a local tmux instance, enabling command execution, file transfer, and session monitoring for AI agents.

Enables AI to execute registered system commands across platforms using a stable program + args interface, without requiring shell-specific syntax or tool discovery.

SSH MCP is a Model Context Protocol tool for managing and interacting with multiple virtual machines over SSH. It simplifies executing commands on remote servers using the standard SSH config file format.

Local-first operator MCP server: recall across your own sessions, chats and files, an encrypted vault, SSH to your own hosts, and gated shell, browser and device tools. 130 tools over stdio or HTTP; everything runs on your machine — no hosted service, no account, no API key.

Provides local agent capabilities for LM Studio including file I/O, terminal execution, and web search.

A minimal MCP server that exposes a single bash tool to execute commands inside a devcontainer, returning real output and exit codes.
