filesystem-mcp CLAUDE.md

filesystem-mcp CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for coding agents from sandraschi/filesystem-mcp. It costs 197 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

A coding guide for a Python server that lets AI tools perform file-system, Git, and Docker operations. Git tracks code changes, while Docker runs software in containers.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when modifying or maintaining this server, particularly its operation-based tools, structured responses, or standard input and HTTP transports.
Why use it?
It tells an agent where the server starts and which conventions its tools and responses must follow, including support for command-line and HTTP connections.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

filesystem-mcp CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

filesystem-mcp — Claude Code Guide

Overview

FastMCP 3.2.0+ compliant MCP server for comprehensive file system, Git, and Docker operations with concurrency safety

Entry Points

  • uv run filesystem-mcpfilesystem_mcp.__main__:run

Standards

  • FastMCP 3.2+ portmanteau tool pattern — tools use operation enum param
  • Responses: structured dicts with success, message, domain-specific fields
  • Dual transport: stdio (Claude Desktop) + HTTP (MCP_TRANSPORT=http)
  • See mcp-central-docs for fleet-wide coding standards

Key Files

  • README.md — full documentation
  • pyproject.toml — build config and entry points
  • AGENTS.md — OpenAI Codex agent context (if present)
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
