🚀 Getting Started

1. Clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/your-username/terminal.mcp.git
cd terminal.mcp

2. Run the MCP server

go run main.go

This starts the MCP server over stdio, waiting for clients (like ChatGPT, Claude, or custom clients) to connect.

🛠️ Tool: run

{
  "command": "ls -la"
}

The server executes the command and returns the output. Supports safe execution via schema-validated tools.

🧪 Test with MCP Inspector

Use MCP Inspector:

npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector -- go run main.go

Then open http://localhost:6274 and test the run tool interactively.

☁️ Deploy on Cloud (optional)

You can run this server on any VPS, container, or cloud function. Just expose stdin/stdout or use a TCP transport (WIP).

📦 Built With

• Go

• MCP Go SDK

• MCP Inspector

🔐 Security Notice

This server executes terminal commands. Use only with authenticated and trusted clients. Avoid deploying it publicly without a secure transport + auth layer.
