About Wcgw

Wcgw is an open-source Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that empowers chat applications—specifically Claude and similar agents—to interactively code, edit files, and execute shell commands on your local machine. It provides tightly integrated shell and code editing tools, allowing both users and AI agents to create, test, and manage software projects directly within their environment. Advanced features include file protection mechanisms, interactive shell handling with multiplexing, context saving for task checkpoints, and easily switchable working modes (architect, code-writer, and unrestricted). This tool is designed for developers and power users who want to blend AI coding agents with their local development workflow in an advanced, customizable, and interactive way.
