ai-file-organizer-mcp

This MCP server lets Claude Desktop:

• organize your folders
• find files instantly
• automate file management

This refers to the baseline version of the MCP server before the major refactoring for safety, scalability, and enhanced organization.

• Workspace Safety: Basic safe_path function that resolves paths.
• Find by Name: Tool find_by_name(pattern, directory=".") that returns a newline-separated string of matches.
• Find by Content: Tool find_by_content(text, directory=".") that reads all files (including binary) to find text matches.
• File CRUD Operations:
• read_file(path): Simple text read.
• write_file(path, content): Simple text write.
• append_file(path, content): Simple text append.
• delete_file(path): Simple file deletion.
• Directory Listing: list_directory(path) tool returning a raw list of filenames.

• Files were moved/categorized by flattening the structure (losing folders).
• No limit on results; large directories could cause crashes or token overflows.
• No exclusion of heavy directories like node_modules or .git.
• Binary files were scanned for text, causing potential errors or slow performance.
• Clean filenames tool was destructive and ran automatically on all files.
