What it does

This server enables AI agents to execute shell commands securely on the host system. Instead of granting unrestricted shell access, it implements a dynamic approval workflow where the user must explicitly allow commands before they are executed.

Tools

execute_command: Runs a shell command with optional arguments after user approval.
revoke_command_approval: Removes a previously approved command from the whitelist.

Installation

Add the following to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "shell": {
            "command": "/absolute/path/to/.venv/bin/python",
            "args": ["/absolute/path/to/dynamic_shell_server.py"]
        }
    }
}
