My AI Couldn’t See My Files — I Built a Zero-Dependency MCP Server

I got tired of copying files into an AI chat just to get feedback. So I built a pure Python MCP server that gives AI tools direct access to my local project—no frameworks, no dependencies. It runs over stdio for local use and switches to HTTP/SSE for concurrent clients with a single flag. The result: 5 clients, under 50ms, and a design that stays simple without sacrificing capability.
