Setup
Claude Code (CLI)
claude mcp add filekiwi -- npx -y @file-kiwi/filekiwi-mcp-server
Claude Desktop / Other MCP Clients
{
"mcpServers": {
"filekiwi": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@file-kiwi/filekiwi-mcp-server"]
}
}
}
File Access
Some environments (e.g. Claude Desktop) restrict local file system access by default. In that case, the AI may not be able to read file paths on your machine. To enable it, add the filesystem MCP server:
{
"mcpServers": {
"filekiwi": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@file-kiwi/filekiwi-mcp-server"]
},
"filesystem": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "C:/Users/username"]
}
}
}
Usage
Once the MCP server is connected, you can ask the AI assistant to share files:
- "Share this file: C:\Users\me\report.pdf"
- "Upload /home/user/photo.png to file.kiwi"
- "Generate a download link for ./presentation.pptx"
The tool will upload the file and return a shareable link like https://file.kiwi/abcdef12#hashashahshashhashhash.
