MCP server providing file and directory analysis tools for AI agents. Gives Claude (and other MCP-compatible AI) the ability to explore, analyze, and search file systems.
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
dir_tree | Generate a visual directory tree structure with configurable depth and ignore patterns |
file_stats | Analyze a directory: total files, size breakdown by extension, largest/newest/oldest files |
duplicate_finder | Find duplicate files by size + MD5 hash, report wasted space |
code_counter | Count lines of code by language: code, comments, and blank lines (like cloc/scc) |
file_search | Search files by name glob, content regex, size range, and date range |
