Install & configure

Install in your client

Paste into the AI you're chatting with — it will figure out the rest

Please install the `filesystem-mcp` MCP server into my current AI client (that's you).

Canonical MCP server config (stdio transport):
- command: `npx`
- args: ["-y","filesystem-mcp"]
- optional environment variables:
  - `MCP_TRANSPORT`: Transport: stdio (default) or http (example: `stdio`)
  - `PORT`: Port when MCP_TRANSPORT=http (example: `3000`)

Add this MCP server to my current client's config in the correct format for you. If you need secrets or credentials I haven't provided, ASK me — do not invent values or leave raw placeholders. After adding it, tell me how to verify the server is connected.
