ferrislucas/iterm-mcp
A Model Context Protocol server that executes commands in the current iTerm session - useful for REPL and CLI assistance
Implements selective output buffering to minimize token usage by letting models request only relevant terminal lines, and supports interactive REPL sessions with full control character support (Ctrl-C, Ctrl-Z, etc.). Communicates via the Model Context Protocol's stdio transport, integrating directly with Claude Desktop and other MCP clients through minimal dependencies. Exposes three core tools—command execution, output reading, and control character sending—that operate on the active iTerm2 window, enabling real-time collaboration between user and AI on terminal tasks.
