Windows Command Line MCP Server
This server creates a secure bridge between Claude and your computer's command-line functionality.
Overview
The Windows Command Line MCP Server is a secure Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables AI models to interact with Windows command-line functionality safely and efficiently.
To use the server, clone the repository, install the necessary dependencies, and run the server. You can then configure it to work with Claude for Desktop by adding it to the configuration file.
- Enhanced security with a comprehensive command allowlist and strict input validation. - Support for project creation in React, Node.js, and Python. - Ability to execute Windows CLI commands and PowerShell scripts. - Retrieve system and network information, manage processes and services.
- Safely executing system commands through AI.
- Creating development projects in a controlled environment.
- Managing system processes and retrieving configuration details.

Use these steps to connect Windows Command Line MCP Server in Cursor, Claude, VS Code, and other MCP-compatible apps. The same JSON appears in the Use with menu above for one-click copy.
Cursor
Add this to your .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root, then restart Cursor.
.cursor/mcp.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"windows-command-line-mcp-server-alxspiker": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@modelcontextprotocol/server-windows-command-line-mcp-server-alxspiker"
]
}
}
}Claude Desktop
Add this server entry to the mcpServers object in your Claude Desktop config, then restart the app.
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows)
{
"mcpServers": {
"windows-command-line-mcp-server-alxspiker": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@modelcontextprotocol/server-windows-command-line-mcp-server-alxspiker"
]
}
}
}Claude Code
Add this to your project's .mcp.json file. Claude Code will detect it automatically.
.mcp.json (project root)
{
"mcpServers": {
"windows-command-line-mcp-server-alxspiker": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@modelcontextprotocol/server-windows-command-line-mcp-server-alxspiker"
]
}
}
}VS Code (Copilot)
Add this to your .vscode/mcp.json file. Requires the GitHub Copilot extension with MCP support enabled.
.vscode/mcp.json
{
"servers": {
"windows-command-line-mcp-server-alxspiker": {
"type": "stdio",
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@modelcontextprotocol/server-windows-command-line-mcp-server-alxspiker"
]
}
}
}Windsurf
Add this to your Windsurf MCP config file, then restart Windsurf.
~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"windows-command-line-mcp-server-alxspiker": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@modelcontextprotocol/server-windows-command-line-mcp-server-alxspiker"
]
}
}
}Cline
Open Cline settings, navigate to MCP Servers, and add this server configuration.
