Pwsh Exec MCP Server

local only

Pwsh Exec MCP runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 60 installs a week from pypi. Last commit 13 Jun 2026.

A minimal, transparent PowerShell 7 MCP for Windows — one tool: raw exit code, stdout, stderr.

Capabilities

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

        proc = subprocess.Popen(

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.

This code can reach further than it looks

We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

Connect this server

This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

run in your terminal
claude mcp add pwsh-exec-mcp -- uvx pwsh-exec
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pwsh-exec-mcp": {
      "args": [
        "pwsh-exec"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"
    }
  }
}
~/.codex/config.toml
[mcp_servers.pwsh-exec-mcp]
command = "uvx"
args = ["pwsh-exec"]
.cursor/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pwsh-exec-mcp": {
      "args": [
        "pwsh-exec"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"
    }
  }
}
.vscode/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pwsh-exec-mcp": {
      "args": [
        "pwsh-exec"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"
    }
  }
}

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: PWSH_EXEC_DEFAULT_DIR (Default working directory for commands (defaults to %TEMP%/pwsh-exec).). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Pwsh Exec MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Pwsh Exec MCP?
Pwsh Exec MCP runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the pypi package pwsh-exec was installed 60 times last week.
How do I connect Pwsh Exec MCP?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls pwsh-exec straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Pwsh Exec MCP?
The pypi package pwsh-exec was installed 60 times in the last week. Week over week that is -15%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Pwsh Exec MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python and 1 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
