A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation for iTerm2 terminal integration. This server allows AI assistants to interact with iTerm2 terminals through the Model Context Protocol.

• Create and manage iTerm2 terminal sessions
• Execute commands in terminals
• Read terminal output
• List active terminals
• Close terminals

• Node.js >= 14.x
• iTerm2
• macOS (since iTerm2 is macOS-only)

The server uses the standard MCP configuration options. No additional configuration is required.

To use this server with Cursor, add the following configuration to your ~/.cursor/mcp.json file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "terminal": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["iterm_mcp_server"]
    }
  }
}

• open_terminal: Open a new terminal instance
• execute_command: Execute a command in a specific terminal
• read_output: Read the output from a specific terminal
• close_terminal: Close a specific terminal
• list_terminals: List all active terminals and their information

• The server validates all input using Zod schemas
• Commands are executed in isolated terminal sessions
• Proper error handling and input sanitization is implemented
