# aki-mcp-sv (`@akinet/akimcp`)
Turn Claude on the web, ChatGPT, Grok, and Postman into secure operators for your local machine. AKIMCP v2 exposes a governed suite of 36 tools for files, shell, search, Git, SQLite, browser automation, DevTools, background tasks, localhost services, clipboard, notifications, ports, and Postman control through one OAuth-gated MCP endpoint. *(Gemini support remains experimental.)*
One command opens a much larger operating surface: build and edit projects from the browser, inspect databases and local APIs, drive browser workflows, manage long-running jobs, debug through DevTools, and control Postman without giving every client unrestricted shell access.

## Why this exists
Claude.ai's web/Pro quota is far cheaper than paying per token via the API for equivalent usage. But most real work is project work: reading, editing, and running commands against files on your machine, not open-ended chat.
The Claude Desktop app already does local file access, but ties usage to a device ID you don't control, and running multiple accounts means repeated login/logout. With this web-based approach, you get true multi-account flexibility instead: just switch browser profiles to pick up a different account (e.g. several Claude Pro subscriptions), all pointed at the same local machine, no device lock-in.
**aki-mcp-sv** routes around both problems: run an MCP server on your machine, expose it over HTTPS through Tailscale Funnel, and connect it to claude.ai as a custom connector.
**The payoff:**
- **Local-first by default:** local tools (Cursor, Claude Code, AGY, Postman) connect straight to `127.0.0.1:9999` — zero latency and fully offline; a public ingress is only needed for remote/web AI.
- **Use your web quota** for local file and shell access, straight from the browser.
- **True multi-account flexibility:** switch browser profiles to instantly pick up a different account, all pointed at the same machine.
- **Safe by default:** a strict command whitelist, not a leaky blocklist — see [Security](#security).
### When to use & Core Use-Cases
- **At your desk:** a native Terminal/CLI (Claude Code, Antigravity CLI, Cursor) is still the fastest, most fluid option — use that.
- **Away from your desk (mobile / web / a machine that isn't yours):** use `aki-mcp-sv` via Claude Web, ChatGPT Mobile, or Grok to check on a running job, read logs, clean up temp files, or pull the latest code on your home/office machine.
- **On a schedule, with nobody watching:** pair Grok's scheduled prompts with `aki-mcp-sv` for cloud-triggered local execution — see [Autonomous Cloud Automation](#autonomous-cloud-automation-grok--local-mcp).
## Install & Run
> [!NOTE]
> **Is this safe to run?** Nothing is installed system-wide outside user directory, no background daemon is created, and no `sudo`/administrator privileges are required. Settings and tokens live safely at `~/.aki/mcpsv/`. The shell tool is whitelist-only (see [Security](#security)). Closing the terminal window stops the server.
### 1-Line Global Install (Recommended)
```bash
npm install -g @akinet/akimcp
akimcp
```
Or run instantly without installing:
```bash
npx @akinet/akimcp
```
### From Source (For Contributors)
```bash
git clone https://github.com/lacvietanh/aki-mcp-sv.git
cd aki-mcp-sv
npm install
# Run in isolated development mode (~/.aki/mcpsv-dev, ports 9997/9996)
npm run dev
# Or run in standard production mode (~/.aki/mcpsv, ports 9999/9998)
npm start
```
## Run
```bash
cp .env.example .env # optional: only if you need PUBLIC_ORIGIN or another non-default var
npm start
```
Nothing needs preparing beforehand; `npm start` handles it:
- **OAuth and passphrase state** in `~/.aki/mcpsv/`: generated once and reused on later runs.
- **Funnel**: checks `tailscale funnel status`; if port `9999` isn't on yet, runs `tailscale funnel --bg 9999` (idempotent: never toggles an already-enabled port).
- Prints the **Remote MCP server URL** and **Passphrase** used on the confirmation page when a client connects.
- Opens the **control panel** at `http://127.0.0.1:9998/?t=<token>`. A step header maps the flow (0 Ingress · 1 Connectors · 2 Install rules · 3 Instructions · 4 Extension · 7 Security), then the sections follow it: 0 Ingress (optional; a 3-tab ingress picker: Tailscale + Funnel / Owned public origin / Hosted domain), 1 Connectors, 2 Install akidevrule, 3 Instructions prompt, 4 Browser utilities, 5 allowed Folders, 6 shell allowlist, 7 Security & connection limits (rate limit settings, blocked callers and Release, registered clients with Remove, callers active since start, the security log).
The default allowed root is your **home directory** (`$HOME`, or `%USERPROFILE%` on Windows): the one folder guaranteed to exist on any machine and to hold the projects you actually want Claude to reach. In plain terms, that means the whole home folder (Desktop, Documents, Downloads, Photos, everything under it), not just the projects you meant to share. Add/remove folders from **panel section 5**: click "+ Add folder…" and type an absolute path (`/Users/you/projects` or `C:\Users\you\projects`). Saving takes effect immediately for every tool — shell, find, search, and file read/write/edit alike — no restart. To change the root from the start: `MCP_DATA_DIR=/other/path npm start` (or `set MCP_DATA_DIR=D:\work` then `npm start` on Windows cmd).
Beyond `$MCP_DATA_DIR`, the filesystem tools are also granted `~/.aki` (where akidevrule deploys) and `~/.claude`, so claude.ai can read your **native** `CLAUDE.md` and skill router the same way Claude Code does, with no copying or staging.
`~/.claude` is granted at the folder level (the filesystem tools can't scope to individual files), so `.claude.json`/`auth-cache.json` (session tokens) and `history.jsonl` (chat history) inside it are also reachable through the connector. This row is locked in panel section 5, with no delete button by design so it can't be revoked by accident; the panel itself cannot remove it. If you don't want `~/.claude` granted at all, edit `~/.aki/mcpsv/setting.json` and remove the `~/.claude` entry from its `folders` list before connecting; claude.ai then loses access to your `CLAUDE.md` too.
`npm start` runs in the foreground: Ctrl+C to stop, restart manually when needed. **After editing code, Ctrl+C and `npm start` again** (Node doesn't hot-reload).
## Connecting from Claude web
1. Go to **claude.ai → Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector**
2. Enter any **Name**, then paste the **Remote MCP server URL** printed by `npm start`
3. Click **Connect** and enter the **Passphrase** when AKIMCP opens its confirmation page
Claude discovers OAuth automatically. No Client ID or Client Secret is needed.
Why not token-in-URL: `docs/ref/claude-connector.md`, `docs/research/claude-ai-oauth-connector.md`.
claude.ai connects and calls the in-house `aki__*` tool suite (36 tools):
- **Chromium Remote & Profiles**: `aki__chrome_profiles`, `aki__chrome_launch`, `aki__chrome_tabs`, `aki__chrome_interact`, `aki__chrome_stop` (stealth port-0 clone, auto-port fallback, React/Vue synthetic typing, scroll-to-center click)
- **DevTools & CDP**: `aki__devtools_targets`, `aki__devtools_eval`, `aki__devtools_screenshot`
- **OS Native Integration**: `aki__notify_user` (desktop notification banner & chime sound), `aki__clipboard_read`, `aki__clipboard_write` (system clipboard read/write bridge)
- **Localhost & Intranet Fetch**: `aki__local_fetch` (SSRF-protected HTTP client for local backend APIs and LAN services)
- **Background Tasks**: `aki__task_start`, `aki__task_manage` (detached background execution, process-group teardown, zero-RAM direct log streaming & tailing)
- **Filesystem**: `aki__read_text_file`, `aki__write_file`, `aki__edit_file`, `aki__create_directory`, `aki__move_file`, `aki__get_file_info`, `aki__list_allowed_directories`
- **Search & Execution**: `aki__find_path`, `aki__search_content`, `aki__run_cmd`
- **Dev Servers & Ports**: `aki__port_status`, `aki__kill_port`
- **Git (read-only)**: `aki__git` with `op` = `status` | `diff` | `log` | `tags` (local, or a remote's via `ls-remote --tags`); compact output, cheaper than `run_cmd`. Writes go through `run_cmd`
- **SQLite Database**: `aki__sqlite_schema`, `aki__sqlite_query`
- **Agent & Context**: `aki__agy_run`, `aki__kiro_read`, `aki__akidevrule_context`
- **Postman Control**: `aki__postman_status`, `aki__postman_eval`, `aki__postman_rename_conversation`, `aki__postman_panel_fullwidth`
**Note on the connector icon:** claude.ai doesn't read the icon from the MCP server. It queries Google's favicon service with the tailnet's **apex domain**, not your host: `https://t2.gstatic.com/faviconV2?...&url=http://<tailnet>.ts.net&size=32`. `<tailnet>.ts.net` has no public DNS record, so Google returns 404 and claude.ai falls back to a default letter icon. This server serves `/favicon.ico` publicly, but no file placed here can change that result: your subdomain never appears in the query Google receives.
## Connecting from ChatGPT
Needs ChatGPT Plus/Pro (or Business/Enterprise/Edu) with **Developer mode** for custom connectors.
1. ChatGPT → Settings → Security and login → enable **Developer mode**
2. Create a custom connector / app → paste the same MCP URL (`https://your-machine.your-tailnet.ts.net/mcp`)
3. Enter the same **passphrase** on the confirmation page
ChatGPT self-registers via DCR (RFC 7591, PKCE, no secret) from `/.well-known/openid-configuration`. It uses the same folder allowlist and shell allowlist as Claude.
## Connecting from Grok and Gemini
Both ride the same MCP URL and passphrase flow — no separate transport or auth. They differ in *how* the client authenticates, and the connector panel (section 1) prints the exact copy fields for each.
**Grok — verified, production-ready:** **self-registers** via the `/register` DCR path like ChatGPT — paste only the MCP URL, no Client ID. Its real `redirect_uri` `https://grok.com/connectors-oauth-exchange-code/` was observed live 2026-08-09 and is allowlisted via `GROK_CALLBACK_PREFIX`. Verified working end to end (`authorize → token` 200). If a future Grok change moves that callback, a rejected registration logs `register REJECTED (redirect_uri not allowlisted): [...]` so the new value can be re-allowlisted.
**Gemini — experimental, connection works but tool use doesn't (yet)** (paid tiers only — Pro / Business / Enterprise; the free tier may not expose custom apps): pastes a **confidential client**, exactly like Claude — set the custom app link to the MCP URL, then under Advanced Settings paste the same Client ID / Client secret. Gemini's redirect goes through Google's OAuth proxy `https://oauth-redirect.googleusercontent.com/r/...` (observed live 2026-08-09), allowlisted by `isAllowedRedirect` in `scripts/oauth.js`. **Caveat:** the OAuth handshake succeeds and Gemini accepts the instruction, but in repeated testing 2026-08-09 it did not reliably discover or drive the MCP tools — connection healthy, tool use unreliable. Claude and Grok are the dependable clients today.
## Connecting from Postman
Postman's AI Agent (Flows / Connected Accounts) has no OAuth redirect for third-party MCP servers and no persistent system-prompt field.
1. In the panel's Postman tab, click the filled JSON to copy. It targets the local loopback endpoint (`http://127.0.0.1:9999/mcp`) and carries a real minted access token — not the passphrase. Postman runs on this machine, so it connects with zero latency and needs no tunnel.
2. In Postman, add a new MCP server (Settings → Connected Accounts) and paste the JSON.
3. Send the instruction into each new chat, since Postman doesn't persist one across sessions: after **Launch**, the **Aki MCP for Postman** overlay's *Prompt instruction* box has **Send now**, or tick *Auto-inject into each new chat* (off by default). It is a separate, Postman-specific text (`scripts/postman/prompts/postman.md`), worded as a polite request because Postman's safety check flags directive-style instructions.
The Postman tab also has a **Launch** button that attaches control to the Postman desktop app itself — auto-clicking Approve/Continue/Run/Try again and toggling Thinking/Auto-run inside the Postman window, on top of opening it if it isn't already running. **Quit** stops that control daemon; **New window** asks it to open another Postman window. None of this runs at `npm start` boot — it starts only when Launch is clicked. The in-app overlay it injects is the **Aki MCP for Postman** panel (opened from a status-bar button): it shows the running version and an `akimcp.top` link under the title, keeps the **New Browser Tab** control in the **ANTI-BOT** section, and opens every external link — `akimcp.top`, the AkiDevRule **Repo** button, and each team's **View** — in your OS default browser through Postman's own link handler.
## Connecting local IDEs (Cursor, Claude Code, AGY, Codex)
Local tools run on the same machine as AKIMCP, so they connect **straight to the loopback engine** at `http://127.0.0.1:9999/mcp` — no tunnel, no internet, zero WAN round-trip, and they keep working fully offline. The Gatekeeper binds `127.0.0.1:9999` from the moment you run `akimcp`, whether or not a public ingress is configured. Bearer-token auth is still enforced (see [Security](#security)); grab the token from the panel at `http://127.0.0.1:9998` (the Postman tab shows the filled JSON; one access token serves every client, and panel section 1 can roll it if it leaks), or copy a config below and replace `YOUR_LOCAL_ACCESS_TOKEN`. (Ports are defaults; `--dev` mode uses `9997`/`9996` — the panel always shows the live values.)
**Cursor** — `~/.cursor/mcp.json` (or Settings → MCP Servers):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"aki-mcp": {
"url": "http://127.0.0.1:9999/mcp",
"headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_LOCAL_ACCESS_TOKEN" }
}
}
}
```
**Claude Code CLI** — one line:
```bash
claude mcp add --transport http aki-mcp http://127.0.0.1:9999/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_LOCAL_ACCESS_TOKEN"
```
**Antigravity (AGY) CLI and IDE** — no token: they spawn `scripts/stdio.js` (the same tools, over stdio). Click **Apply to AGY CLI** in the panel's AGY tab, or merge this into `~/.gemini/config/mcp_config.json` (the file both read) and restart:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"akimcp": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/absolute/path/to/aki-mcp-sv/scripts/stdio.js"]
}
}
}
```
The button also pre-allows the server for the CLI; the IDE asks for its own approval on the first tool call. Details: [`docs/ref/fact-agy-mcp-config.md`](docs/ref/fact-agy-mcp-config.md).
**Codex CLI** — append to `~/.codex/config.toml` (don't overwrite; Codex reaches the local engine over streamable HTTP, token inlined so there's no env var to export):
```toml
[mcp_servers.aki-mcp]
url = "http://127.0.0.1:9999/mcp"
http_headers = { "Authorization" = "Bearer YOUR_LOCAL_ACCESS_TOKEN" }
```
**Postman Desktop** uses the same loopback URL — see [Connecting from Postman](#connecting-from-postman).
> Use the literal `127.0.0.1`, not `localhost`: on macOS `localhost` can resolve to IPv6 `::1` while the server listens on IPv4 only.
## Autonomous Cloud Automation (Grok + Local MCP)
Grok's scheduled prompts turn your machine into a headless "personal remote AI node": no browser tab, no desktop app, just `npm start` running in the background.
- **Cloud-triggered local execution:** set up a scheduled prompt in Grok (Automation) that fires at a fixed time.
- **Headless:** Grok's cloud service sends the request to `/mcp` over your Tailscale Funnel URL, and `aki-mcp-sv` runs the task — health check, log sweep, `git pull`, cleanup — with nothing open on your end.
- **Zero UI required:** as long as the process is running, no browser or app needs to be open for the scheduled task to execute.
## Requirements
- Node.js 22, on Windows, Linux, or macOS.
- **Windows only:** [Git for Windows](https://git-scm.com/download/win) (or WSL) on `PATH` — the shell/search tools shell out to Unix binaries (`ls cat pwd grep head tail wc file stat tree ps df du whoami uname`), and akidevrule's `install.sh` needs `bash`; Git for Windows' `usr/bin` ships the coreutils/findutils/grep/diffutils this needs. Same category of prerequisite as Tailscale below, not a code dependency.
- Tailscale (one-time setup):
1. [Install Tailscale](https://tailscale.com/download) and sign in (on macOS, the app or `brew install tailscale` both work as long as `tailscale` is on PATH)
2. Enable [Funnel](https://tailscale.com/docs/features/tailscale-funnel) for your tailnet: free on every plan, a one-time toggle via the `login.tailscale.com/f/funnel` link `npm start` prints if it isn't on yet
After that, `npm start` enables Funnel on port 9999 automatically every run.
## Architecture
```
Claude web / ChatGPT
│ HTTPS + OAuth 2.1 (Claude: paste client ID/secret; ChatGPT: DCR self-register)
▼
Tailscale Funnel (https://your-machine.your-tailnet.ts.net)
│
▼
gatekeeper.js — public port 9999
│ /.well-known/oauth-* + openid-configuration metadata (openid is an alias for ChatGPT discovery)
│ /authorize, /token minimal authorization server (scripts/oauth.js)
│ /register RFC 7591 dynamic client registration (ChatGPT self-registers here)
│ /mcp requires a valid Bearer access token, else 401
│ POST → real Streamable HTTP (scripts/streamable-bridge.js)
▼
tools-server.js — one shared McpServer, in-process (InMemoryTransport, no child, no SSE), tools:
search-mcp.js (find_path/search_content, whole-tree in one call)
shell-mcp.js (allowlisted commands, inspection-first defaults)
agy-mcp.js (Antigravity CLI, read-only plan mode)
kiro-mcp.js (kiro_read, read-only, needs kiro-cli on PATH)
filesystem-mcp.js (native read/write/edit inside the allowed folders)
postman/postman-mcp.js (Postman daemon status/eval/rename/panel tools)
rule-context-mcp.js (akidevrule_context handshake tool)
chrome-mcp.js (profile clone, stealth launch, tabs, interact)
chrome-profile.js (Chrome/Brave/Edge profile clone + cookie decrypt)
cdp-mcp.js (devtools_targets/eval/screenshot over CDP)
cdp-engine.js (shared CDP launch/target/eval engine)
fetch-mcp.js (SSRF-protected localhost/LAN HTTP fetch)
task-mcp.js (detached background task start/manage)
port-mcp.js (TCP port status/kill)
git-mcp.js (scope-checked git status/diff/log)
system-mcp.js (notify_user, clipboard read/write)
sqlite-mcp.js (read-only node:sqlite schema/query)
panel.js — 127.0.0.1:9998, never exposed via Funnel
control UI: allowed folders, shell allowlist,
install akidevrule, generate the connector prompt
```
The ingress layer is swappable: Tailscale Funnel is the zero-config default, but the same `/mcp` endpoint can instead be served through your own Cloudflare named tunnel or any stable public HTTPS edge you already run — see [Exposing to the internet](#exposing-to-the-internet). Everything below the ingress line (gatekeeper, OAuth) is unchanged whichever edge you pick.
OAuth (not token-in-URL) is used because claude.ai always attempts Dynamic Client Registration regardless of configuration (`docs/research/claude-ai-oauth-connector.md`). ChatGPT also expects OAuth; this server advertises `/register` (RFC 7591 DCR) so ChatGPT can self-register while Claude can keep using the pre-issued Client ID/Secret.

Your data lives outside the repo, at `~/.aki/mcpsv/` (the same convention CLIs like `~/.aws` or `~/.docker` use):
```
~/.aki/mcpsv/
├── setting.json # allowed folders + shell allowlist, edited from the panel
├── oauth-client.json # pre-issued client ID + secret, for Claude (0600)
├── oauth-dcr-clients.json # clients that self-registered via /register, one per ChatGPT connector (0600)
├── passphrase.txt # passphrase for the /authorize consent screen (0600)
├── tokens.json # access/refresh tokens (0600)
└── prompts/ # editable copy of the shared summarize-for-handoff prompt (Postman daemon), seeded from scripts/postman/prompts/
```
`scripts/postman/prompts/` in the repo holds the bundled prompts. The Postman instruction (`postman.md`) is served read-only straight from there; the shared summarize prompt is copied into `~/.aki/mcpsv/prompts/` on first launch only so it can be edited, and nothing is ever written back into the repo.
A clone stays exactly as checked out: editing folders/allowlist from the panel never produces a diff in the repo.
## Configuration
Copy `.env.example` to `.env` and uncomment what you need — `start.js` loads it automatically on boot (falls back silently to defaults when `.env` is absent, so the default Tailscale flow is unaffected). Supported vars: `PUBLIC_ORIGIN`, `GATEKEEPER_PORT`, `PANEL_PORT`, `MCP_DATA_DIR`, `MCP_REQUEST_TIMEOUT_MS`. For a one-off alternate profile, pass `node --env-file=.env.user ./scripts/start.js` instead.
## Exposing to the internet
Tailscale Funnel is the default, zero-config path and stays the recommended flow. If Funnel is unreliable for you, two alternative ingress options let you bring your own public edge instead — see [Alternative ingress](#alternative-ingress-if-funnel-is-unreliable) below.
`npm start` enables Funnel automatically when needed (see above), no manual step. Funnel is state stored in `tailscaled` (survives reboots), independent of `npm start`'s own lifecycle; disable it entirely with `tailscale funnel 9999 off`.
**Know before enabling Funnel:**
- Free on every Tailscale plan, but the tailnet needs a one-time opt-in first (the `login.tailscale.com/f/funnel?node=...` link `tailscale funnel --bg` prints if it's missing).
- Only 3 ports are fundeable: `443`, `8443`, `10000`; you can't expose an arbitrary port.
- Bandwidth is limited; Tailscale doesn't publish an exact number.
- Don't toggle Funnel on/off repeatedly: re-issuing the certificate too often can hit Let's Encrypt's rate limit (~34h lockout). `start.js` avoids this by checking `Web[].Handlers[].Proxy` for port 9999 in `tailscale funnel status --json` before deciding Funnel is off (not the `AllowFunnel` key, which reflects the public port 443, not 9999).
**Diagnosing "claude.ai can't connect" while `tailscale funnel status` says "on":** the serve-config can save locally but fail to sync to Tailscale's control plane, so a real client on the open internet is blocked at the TLS layer while the host machine, routed through the internal mesh, sees everything as fine. **Don't test with a bare `curl https://<host>` from the machine running `npm start`**: that machine is in the tailnet and silently takes the mesh shortcut. Test the real path instead:
```bash
dig @8.8.8.8 <host> A +short # real public IP
curl --resolve <host>:443:<IP-from-above> https://<host>/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server
```
If that returns `SSL_ERROR_SYSCALL`/timeout despite `tailscale funnel status` saying "on", re-run `tailscale funnel --bg 9999` to force a config re-push (not a code bug). Full writeup: `docs/research/claude-ai-oauth-connector.md`, section "Debug round 5".
### Alternative ingress (if Funnel is unreliable)
The Funnel edge can intermittently drop individual requests in some regions. The drop-rate difference against Cloudflare is still unmeasured, so these are not a proven upgrade — reach for them only if Funnel is unreliable for you. Both replace the Tailscale edge entirely; the OAuth server and tool suite are unchanged. Precedence when more than one is set: `--tunnel` > `PUBLIC_ORIGIN` > saved panel config (section 0 → "Owned public origin") > Tailscale Funnel. Full rationale: `docs/plan/done/cloudflare-tunnel-ingress.md`.
**Bring your own edge (`PUBLIC_ORIGIN`):** point an env var at a stable public HTTPS origin you run and terminate yourself, and `npm start` skips Tailscale entirely, serving at that origin:
```bash
PUBLIC_ORIGIN=https://your-host npm start
```
**Cloudflare named tunnel (`--tunnel`):** the server launches a Cloudflare named tunnel for you, reading `TunnelID` from a cloudflared credentials JSON and running `cloudflared tunnel run` forwarding to `127.0.0.1:9999`:
```bash
npm start -- --tunnel <cred.json> --origin https://your-host
```
`--origin` is **required** because a credentials JSON carries no hostname. This is JSON-credentials mode only — no `yml` config, no token. Before it works you need a Cloudflare account, a named tunnel already created (`cloudflared tunnel create`), its credentials JSON, and a DNS route pointing the hostname at that tunnel.
**Someone gave you a tunnel JSON:** if a host who owns the domain already created the tunnel and DNS route and sent you the credentials JSON, you need no Cloudflare account of your own — just install `cloudflared`, then run with the origin they assigned:
```bash
npm start -- --tunnel <the-json-they-sent> --origin https://the-subdomain-they-gave-you
```
To get a subdomain under a host's domain, arrange it with them directly; there is no self-serve signup.
**From the panel (no CLI flags):** open the control panel → section 0 → "Owned public origin" tab → upload your cloudflared credentials JSON and the hostname you routed it to → Save. Takes effect on the next `npm start` (restart required, not a live switch); a "Use Tailscale Funnel instead" button reverts it.
When a custom ingress is active, the panel's section 0 skips the Tailscale checks and instead shows the active ingress and the serving origin — so the absent Tailscale UI is expected, not a fault.
## Finding files
Use `aki__find_path` to locate a file or directory — it scans the whole tree in one call (measured: ~0.2s across 164k files / 11.7k directories), returns **both files and directories**, and skips `node_modules`/`.git`/build output automatically. `query` is a case-insensitive substring, or a glob when it contains `*`/`?`.
## Security
**Convenience first, guardrail second.** AKIMCP is not a fortress and adds no permission layer to configure; its guardrail stops weak or overeager models from doing damage without per-call approval prompts. The whole picture (every surface and its gate, connection limits, what each secret unlocks and how to revoke it) is in [`docs/feat/security.md`](docs/feat/security.md).
- **Remote access** goes through minimal OAuth 2.1: an allowlisted redirect, a 50-bit passphrase at `/authorize`, PKCE S256. Claude uses a pre-issued Client ID/Secret; ChatGPT, Grok and Gemini self-register (DCR). Whoever knows the passphrase can get a token, so treat it like the token.
- **One shared access token** (1 year) for every client, shown and rolled in panel section 1. *Roll & sign out all clients* is the answer to any leak.
- **Loopback is not trusted**: the server binds `127.0.0.1` only and still requires the token, so a web page in your browser cannot drive it. The panel binds `127.0.0.1` too and needs its own per-start token.
- **Wrong credentials get blocked**: default 5 in 60 seconds, then 15 minutes of `429`. Valid tokens are never counted or blocked. Panel section 7 edits every number, lists blocked callers and releases them, shows every registered client (with Remove) and who used the token since the last restart, and shows the security log (`security.log` in the data dir, rotated at 1 MB).
- **Tools reach only the folders you list** (default your home folder plus `~/.aki` and `~/.claude`), and the shell runs only allowlisted commands, without a shell (panel sections 5 and 6). Commands you add are your responsibility.
- **Secrets** (`passphrase.txt`, `tokens.json`, `oauth-client.json`, `oauth-dcr-clients.json`) live in `~/.aki/mcpsv/`, mode 0600, never in the repo.
### How this differs from Desktop Commander
[Desktop Commander](https://github.com/wonderwhy-er/DesktopCommanderMCP) is the most widely used MCP terminal server. It runs locally for **Claude Desktop** and guards shell access with a **blocklist** (`blockedCommands`, an explicit list of forbidden commands). A blocklist is inherently leaky: you can't enumerate every dangerous command and variant, and the default is *allow*: anything not on the list gets through.
This project targets a different scenario: exposing local access to Claude **on the web**, across the open internet via Funnel. It makes the opposite default choice: a **whitelist**. Nothing runs unless it's explicitly allowed.
### Why whitelist, not blocklist
- **Fail-safe**: an unfamiliar or new command is blocked automatically, no guessing required.
- **Minimal attack surface**: only the exact commands you've approved can run, nothing more.
- **Granular down to the subcommand**: `git` is scoped to `status/log/diff/show`, something a blocklist can't express cleanly.
- **Neutralizes prompt injection**: exposed to the open internet, a hard whitelist means a malicious or injected instruction has nothing to escalate to — there's no unlisted command for it to reach for.
- **Inspection-first by construction**: the built-in set is reads plus a few dev/media helpers — flag-rich binaries that could escape it via their own flags (`find`, `sort`) are kept out (issue #2), and git's write forms are refused; adding a write command is a deliberate edit (panel section 6 or `~/.aki/mcpsv/setting.json`), not the removal of a ban.
