- High-performance search: Uses ripgrep for extremely fast searches across directory structures
- File content reader: Read and display the content of specific text files
- Smart file detection: Automatically identifies text files and skips binary files
- MCP integration: Works with systems that support the Model Context Protocol
- Fallback mechanism: Uses pure Rust implementation when ripgrep command is not available
Before using this tool, make sure you have:
1. Rust installed - Install Rust
2. ripgrep installed - On macOS, you can install it using Homebrew:
brew install ripgrep
Add this to your MCP settings (in Cursor, Claude, or other MCP-compatible tools):
{
"mcpServers": {
"file-find-mcp": {
"command": "/path/to/your/file-find-mcp/target/release/file-find-mcp"
}
}
}
Replace /path/to/your/file-find-mcp with the actual path to your cloned repository.

A specialized Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for fast file search within a filesystem, built with Rust and powered by ripgrep.
🔍 Overview
File Find MCP is a tool that provides powerful search capabilities for files in a specified directory. It uses ripgrep to perform high-performance searches through file content efficiently.
This project implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP), making it compatible with AI assistants and other systems that support the protocol.
