Enables AI agents to access SMB/CIFS shares or local filesystem paths at runtime while preserving native permissions.
Sponsored
The SMB Server provides a critical runtime file-access gateway for AI agents, leveraging the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to securely interact with SMB/CIFS shares or local filesystems. Unlike traditional AI file integrations that rely on data synchronization, indexing, and embedding—which often break permission models and prevent revocation—this tool ensures that AI agents access files directly at runtime. It relies entirely on native SMB or OS permission enforcement, guaranteeing that if the underlying system cannot read a file, the agent cannot either, establishing a minimal and correct execution boundary for AI-driven file operations.
Key Features
011 GitHub stars
02Exposes files only at access time, avoiding pre-indexing or duplication.
03Relies on native SMB and OS permission enforcement for secure access.
04Uses the Model Context Protocol (MCP) as a runtime control plane.
05Supports both SMB/CIFS shares and local filesystem backends.
06Communicates over stdio for easy integration with AI agents and development environments.
Use Cases
01Providing AI agents with secure, real-time access to existing SMB or local filesystem data.
02Integrating AI applications with enterprise file shares without compromising native permission models.
03Building AI agent systems that require runtime file I/O with robust security and no data duplication.
