Filewash

Overview

Filewash is a Model Context Protocol server that brings privacy-first file tools to AI agents. It handles PDF and image operations, scrubs metadata, and removes backgrounds — giving any MCP-compatible AI assistant direct access to these capabilities. The model decides when and how to use these tools during conversations or agent runs.

The server runs locally via the npm package @fixpixel/filewash-api, communicating over stdio with no authentication required. Version v0.1.0 is available under the MIT license, with full source code at cassilup/filewash-api on GitHub.

Filewash appears in the AI & Agents category and integrates with MCP clients including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and Zed. Maintainers are welcome to claim this listing to earn a Verified badge and ensure the information stays up to date.
