MCP servers: File Systems

Advanced filesystem operations with large file handling capabilities and Claude-optimized features. Provides fast file reading/writing, sequential reading for large files, directory operations, file search, and streaming writes with backup & recovery.

Surgical editing of existing Word .docx files with formatting preservation, tracked changes, comments, footnotes, and document comparison.

Convert Markdown files to professional PDFs with customizable themes, headers, footers, and styling

Share markdown files and text as clean, readable web links via `plsreadme_share_file` and `plsreadme_share_text`; zero setup (`npx -y plsreadme-mcp` or `).

claude mcp add plsreadme -- npx -y plsreadme-mcp

Share code context with LLMs via MCP or clipboard

Reduce context usage on file use. Send only unified diffs instead of full files (up to 20-100× fewer tokens), and read large files with targeted `grep`/`sed` instead of full reads (up to 500×). Kernel-enforced path confinement hard-locks the agent to a configured root: no accidental reads or writes outside scope. Standalone for your file access or embed in any MCP server (Rust, Node.js, Python via WASM).
