Webpack plugin to copy, archive (.zip), move, delete files and directories before and after builds
Webpack plugin to copy, archive (.zip), move, delete files and directories before and after builds. The filemanager mcp server wraps that behind the Model Context Protocol, so an assistant can use it through 5 defined tools rather than through you.
Everything the assistant can do here goes through one of these:
Copy — Copy individual files or entire directories from a source folder to a destination folder. Also supports glob patternDelete — Delete individual files or entire directories. Also supports glob patternMove — The Move tool exposed by this serverMkdir — The Mkdir tool exposed by this serverArchive — Archive individual files or entire directories. Defaults to .zip unless 'format' and 'options' provided. UsesInstallation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at filemanager-webpack-plugin on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.
Plenty of developer tooling servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. Filemanager's toolset — Copy, Delete, Move and 2 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by GitHub Actions; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.
