What is cloud-to-local-mcp?

A connection guide for using Cloud2Local MCP to access a remote Windows machine. MCP is a standard way for an AI agent to call tools such as file and command operations.

Use it to read or write files, run approved commands and scripts, inspect projects, or run Git, Node.js, and Python operations on the remote machine.

It explains how to connect, authenticate, and reuse a session instead of repeating the connection setup for every request.

Install

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.

Any agent

npx skills add plhys/Cloud2Local --skill cloud-to-local-mcp

Clone the repo

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/plhys/Cloud2Local

Made for: Claude Code, Codex.

Per session 79 Skills are progressive disclosure: only the name and description are preloaded; the body loads when the skill is used.

Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00079	$0.01023
Opus 5.5	$0.00032	$0.00409
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00016	$0.00205
Haiku 4.5	$0.00008	$0.00102

Security

Grade A, and why

cloud-to-local-mcp 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 2mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/mcp-stream.mjs), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 87 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Cloud2Local MCP

通过 MCP 协议连接远端 Windows 机器，受 fileRoot 和命令白名单约束。

注意： 下面「连接信息」里的公网地址 / Token / fileRoot 是示例环境配置。请以 Cloud2Local 客户端启动 MCP 后界面上显示的「云端地址 + Token」为准，并按实际 fileRoot 修改命令中的路径。

连接信息

mcporter 服务名: cloud-to-local-remote（可按客户端配置自行命名）
公网地址: https://cloudtolocal.ideasir.com/mcp（示例，以实际为准）
鉴权: Authorization: Bearer <token>
远端 OS: Windows (win32/x64)
fileRoot: E:\AIcode\tbox（示例，以实际为准）

优化客户端

使用 scripts/mcp-stream.mjs 替代 mcporter call，避免每次重复握手（~1.5s vs ~5s）。

node scripts/mcp-stream.mjs <server-name> <tool-name> '<params-json>'

使用示例：

# 获取服务端信息
node scripts/mcp-stream.mjs cloud-to-local-remote get_server_info

# 执行命令
node scripts/mcp-stream.mjs cloud-to-local-remote run_command '{"command":"git status"}'
node scripts/mcp-stream.mjs cloud-to-local-remote run_command '{"command":"node -v"}'

# 列出目录
node scripts/mcp-stream.mjs cloud-to-local-remote list_directory '{"path":"E:\\AIcode\\tbox"}'
node scripts/mcp-stream.mjs cloud-to-local-remote list_directory '{"path":"E:\\AIcode\\tbox","depth":2}'

# 读取文件
node scripts/mcp-stream.mjs cloud-to-local-remote read_file '{"path":"E:\\AIcode\\tbox\\package.json"}'

# 运行脚本（避免 Windows 引号转义）
node scripts/mcp-stream.mjs cloud-to-local-remote run_script '{"language":"node","code":"const fs=require(\"fs\");console.log(fs.readdirSync(\".\").join(\"\\n\"))"}'

状态缓存： ~/.openclaw/workspace/.cache/mcp-stream/state.json

初始化状态自动缓存，后续调用跳过握手
session 过期后自动重新 init（无需手动清理）

可用工具

工具	用途
`get_server_info`	查看 fileRoot / allowedCommands / OS
`run_command`	执行命令（受白名单限制）
`run_script`	写临时文件执行脚本（推荐，避免转义）
`read_file`	读取文件（受 fileRoot 限制）
`write_file`	写入文件（受 fileRoot 限制）
`list_directory`	列出目录，可选 depth
`screenshot`	截取主屏幕（返回 base64 PNG）

安全边界

fileRoot: E:\AIcode\tbox — 超出此路径的文件操作会被拒绝
命令白名单: python, node, pip, npm, git, powershell, cmd 等（详见 get_server_info）
路径要用 Windows 反斜杠转义: E:\\AIcode\\tbox

Files

What ships with it

2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
