This tool lets AI assistants run commands on your computer, like listing files or running scripts. You can either type a command as you would in a terminal, or provide the program and arguments separately. It returns the output so the AI can use it.
mcp-server-commands is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that exposes a single tool called `runProcess` for executing commands on the host machine. It supports two mutually exclusive invocation methods: `command_line` (a string executed via the system's default shell, supporting pipes, redirects, and variable expansion) and `argv` (an array where the first element is the executable and the rest are arguments, bypassing shell interpretation). The tool returns both STDOUT and STDERR as text, and optionally accepts STDIN input, enabling LLMs to pass scripts to interpreters like bash, python, or fish. It is designed for use with MCP-compatible clients such as Claude Desktop, Groq Desktop, and Zed. The server is written in TypeScript and published on npm. Security warnings emphasize that users should review commands before approval and avoid running with sudo.
