Hyper MCP Terminal

What it does

Hyper MCP Terminal connects AI assistants like Claude to a real terminal environment. It exposes shell command execution as MCP tools, letting an LLM run commands, create terminal sessions, and manage remote shell interactions — all through the Model Context Protocol.

Tools

• execute-command — Run a shell command in the active terminal session and return the output
• create-terminal-session — Spin up a new isolated terminal session (tab) for running commands
• Active terminal detection — Automatically tracks which terminal tab is active so commands run in the right context

Installation

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hyper-mcp-terminal": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["mcp-remote", "http://localhost:13000/mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Or use the HTTP transport directly:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "terminal": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "http://localhost:13000/mcp"
    }
  }
}
