What it does
About What's Running MCP
What's Running MCP is a Model Context Protocol server that supplies AI agents with real-time machine state gathered directly from local operating system utilities like ps, lsof, launchctl, and df. Instead of trusting outdated documentation or conversation transcripts, the server provides five read-only tools to report live agent sessions, active TCP listening sockets, loaded background daemons, system load, and disk space. Built with fixed binary execution and non-shell commands, it ensures safe, non-blocking inspection without modifying system configuration.
