MoLing MCP Server

English | 中文 | 日本語

Introduction

MoLing is a computer-use and browser-use MCP Server that implements system interaction through operating system APIs, enabling file system operations such as reading, writing, merging, statistics, and aggregation, as well as the ability to execute system commands. It is a dependency-free local office automation assistant.

Advantages

Important

Requiring no installation of any dependencies, MoLing can be run directly and is compatible with multiple operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and macOS. This eliminates the hassle of dealing with environment conflicts involving Node.js, Python, Docker and other development environments.

Features

Caution

Command-line operations are dangerous and should be used with caution.

File System Operations: Reading, writing, merging, statistics, and aggregation
Command-line Terminal: Execute system commands directly
Browser Control: Powered by github.com/chromedp/chromedp
- Chrome browser is required.
- In Windows, the full path to Chrome needs to be configured in the system environment variables.
Future Plans:
- Personal PC data organization
- Document writing assistance
- Schedule planning
- Life assistant features

Warning

Currently, MoLing has only been tested on macOS, and other operating systems may have issues.

moling FAQ

Is it still being worked on?

Yes, though slowly. The most recent code change was March 2026, and it is neither archived nor deprecated.

Do I need Node, Python, or Docker installed?

No. It is one program you download and run, which is the main reason to choose it.

Which apps can use it?

Claude, Cline, Cherry Studio, Roo Code, and other apps that support MCP connections.

Is it safe?

Use care. It can run any command on your computer and change your files, so only allow it work you would do yourself.

Which systems does it actually work on?

Windows, macOS, and Linux builds are published, but the author states only macOS has been tested.

Can I use this to clean up a messy folder of documents?

Yes. It can read, write, merge, and summarize files sitting on your own disk.

Download it, then run one command that writes the settings into your chat app for you.
