Security note

MCP servers receive tool arguments from a conversation and may perform external actions. Review what a server can do before you enable it, and give it only the access it needs.

The registry verified the GitHub account file-kiwi for this listing. That does not show the account is the product's maker.

SourceWeft's checks cover whether the listing is complete and the endpoint answered; they do not review the server's code or what its tools do.

Overview

AI-generated overview

Local MCP server that uploads a file from your machine to file.kiwi and returns a shareable download link.

What you can do: Upload a local file by path to file.kiwi and get back a shareable download URL.
Handles large files with no stated size limit, with the link available immediately while the upload continues.
Uploads are end-to-end encrypted through the file.kiwi API, with no browser involved.
When to use it: Useful when you want an assistant to turn a local file into a link you can send to someone, for example sharing a report, photo or presentation without setting up an account or cloud drive.
Requirements: Runs as a local process via npx from the npm package, so Node.js is needed. No account, API key or environment variables are required. The assistant must be able to read the file path on your machine; in sandboxed clients such as Claude Desktop, a filesystem MCP server may need to be added for path access.

Before you install

Uploading sends the file's contents to the third-party file.kiwi service, so avoid sharing sensitive or confidential files. Files are reportedly deleted automatically after about 90 hours, and the free download period is limited, so links are not permanent. The tool reads local files by path, so only point it at files you intend to share.

Installation

In SourceWeft

Open Filekiwi Mcp Server in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

Other MCP clients

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

Usage

Once the MCP server is connected, you can ask the AI assistant to share files:

"Share this file: C:\Users\me\report.pdf"
"Upload /home/user/photo.png to file.kiwi"
"Generate a download link for ./presentation.pptx"

The tool will upload the file and return a shareable link like https://file.kiwi/abcdef12#secretKey.

Setup

Test before use

Claude Code (CLI)

Claude Desktop / Other MCP Clients

json

{  "mcpServers": {    "filekiwi": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "@file-kiwi/filekiwi-mcp-server"]    }  }}

File Access

Some environments (e.g. Claude Desktop) restrict local file system access by default. In that case, the AI may not be able to read file paths on your machine. To enable it, add the filesystem MCP server:

json

{  "mcpServers": {    "filekiwi": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "@file-kiwi/filekiwi-mcp-server"]    },    "filesystem": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "C:/Users/username"]    }  }}

{  "mcpServers": {    "filekiwi": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "@file-kiwi/filekiwi-mcp-server"]    },    "filesystem": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "C:/Users/username"]    }  }}
