About cli-bridge

A local Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that gives Claude Desktop — or any MCP-compatible client — sandboxed filesystem access and gated shell command execution, scoped entirely to a single workspace root directory.

cli-bridge is a lightweight MCP server that plugs into Claude Desktop (or any MCP client) and gives it:

- 📂 Filesystem tools — read, write, edit, search, and grep files, all confined to one workspace root - 💻 Shell execution — run real commands on your machine, gated behind an explicit Dev Mode toggle - 📝 Project memory — an append-only journal (PROJECTLOG.md) so an agent can pick up context across sessions - 🔒 Audit logging — every tool call recorded to a local log file, nothing sent anywhere else

Everything runs locally, on your machine — no external API calls, no cloud dependency, no telemetry.

⚠️ Dev Mode — Read Before Enabling Shell Execution

[!CAUTION] executecommand can run any executable available on your system, with the same permissions as the app hosting the MCP client. This is real shell execution, not a sandbox.

------ Default state Dev Mode is OFF every time the server starts. executecommand is blocked before anything spawns. Turning it on Requires an explicit toggledevmode({ enabledevmode: true }) call — nothing enables it silently. Your responsibility Once enabled, any command run — including destructive ones (deleting files, modifying system state, installing software, network calls) — executes for real. There is no command allowlist, no confirmation beyond your MCP client's own approval settings, and no undo. Liability This project's
