PTY MCP Server

pty-mcp is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server designed to manage pseudo-terminal (PTY) sessions. Built with TypeScript and the Effect ecosystem, it provides a robust and type-safe interface for spawning, controlling, and interacting with terminal processes programmatically.

Features

  • Spawn Sessions: Create new PTY sessions with custom commands, arguments, and environment variables.
  • Interactive Control: Write data to stdin and read from stdout/stderr in real-time.
  • Session Management: List active sessions, monitor status, and terminate processes.
  • Effect Ecosystem: Leverages the power of the Effect library for error handling, concurrency, and resource management.
  • MCP Integration: Seamlessly exposes PTY capabilities to MCP-compliant clients.
