Blazing-fast, asynchronous MCP server for seamless filesystem operations.
# Add to your Claude Code skills
git clone https://github.com/rust-mcp-stack/rust-mcp-filesystemRust MCP Filesystem is a blazingly fast, asynchronous, and lightweight MCP (Model Context Protocol) server designed for efficient handling of various filesystem operations.
This project is a pure Rust rewrite of the JavaScript-based @modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem, offering enhanced capabilities, improved performance, and a robust feature set tailored for modern filesystem interactions.

This project aims to provide a reliable, secure, and feature-rich MCP server for filesystem management, reimagining the capabilities of @modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem in a more performant and type-safe language. Whether you’re building tools for file exploration, automation, or system integration, rust-mcp-filesystem offers a solid foundation.
The project leverages the rust-mcp-sdk and rust-mcp-schema to build this server. check out those repositories if you’re interested in crafting your own Rust-based MCP project or converting existing ones to Rust for enhanced performance and safety.
