file-finder-mcp MCP Server

A MCP server for searching files in the filesystem based on a path fragment.

Components

Resources

The server implements a file search system:

• Each file resource includes:
  • File name
  • Full path
  • File size
  • Creation date

Tools

The server provides one tool:

• search-files: Searches for files matching a given path fragment.
  • Takes query as a required string argument.
  • Takes directory as an optional string argument to specify the base directory for the search. If not provided, the search runs in the root directory.
  • Returns a list of matching files with their metadata.
