This Terminal MCP Server enables you to run terminal workspace commands through a local MCP endpoint, allowing you to execute actions from an MCP client in a controlled, programmable way. It acts as a bridge between your client requests and the Node-based terminal workspace logic, making it easier to automate workflows and integrate terminal tasks into your MCP-enabled tooling.

How to use

You connect to this MCP server from your MCP client to trigger terminal workspace actions locally. Start the server process, then issue requests from your client to run terminal commands and receive results or progress updates. Use this server to automate repetitive workflow steps, execute workspace tasks, and integrate terminal-driven actions into larger MCP-driven automation.

How to install

Prerequisites you need before starting:

Node.js installed on your machine. You can verify with node -v and install from the official Node.js site if needed.

Install and prepare the server by placing the provided index file at its expected path and ensuring dependencies are available. Then you can start the server using the command shown in the configuration snippet.

{
  "terminal_mcp": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": [
        "/users/annhoward/src/model_context_protocol_server/claude_workspace/terminal-mcp/build/index.js"
      ]
    },
}

Additional sections

Configuration for this MCP server is provided by the runtime command and its arguments. The server runs as a local stdio MCP endpoint, so you start it directly with Node using the path to the built index. If you need to modify how the server is invoked, adjust the command or the argument list in your deployment script or startup configuration.

Security note: keep the index.js path and any runtime environment secure in your deployment environment. Limit access to the MCP client interface to trusted tooling and authenticated users. If you need to pass environment variables, include them in your startup environment and reference them in your deployment scripts.
