What it can access
- An MCP server is a program your AI app starts and talks to. A local one runs with your user's permissions: it can see the files, environment variables and network your account can.
Before you install

- Read the tool list or scripts before the first run, and keep approval prompts on for actions that write, send or delete.
- Maintained by utensils on GitHub, 870 stars and 49 forks. Popularity is not proof of safety.
- Last code change: Oct 26, 2026.
- Open-source license: MIT.
