title Movi MCP For Claude Code
description Wire Movi MCP v1 into Claude Code when you want local-first review-safe file organization with MCP instead of direct file mutation.

Movi MCP For Claude Code

Movi already has a real Claude Code story today:

  • Category: review-first local AI file organizer
  • Hotness hook: stdio-first MCP for Claude Code
  • Outcome: let Claude Code help with manifest review, rule drafting, and dry-run previews while keeping real execution behind the same human review boundary

In plain language: Claude Code can help with the planning desk, but it still does not get to walk into the warehouse and move boxes on its own.

Why Claude Code Is A Real Fit

Claude Code is a good current fit because Movi already ships:

  • a local-first stdio MCP server
  • review-safe tools that mirror the current app workflow
  • no direct file-move shortcut for agents
  • allowlisted docs resources so an agent can read the safety rules before acting

This is not “future roadmap” wording. It is the current shipped MCP boundary.

Current Best Uses

Use Claude Code with Movi when you want it to:

  • inspect a messy batch before creating work
  • read review queues, reports, and manifests
  • draft overlay-safe edits
  • preview reusable rules before applying them to the overlay
  • queue a dry-run apply preview for a human to inspect later

Current Non-Goals

Do not describe the current Claude Code integration as:

  • a hosted API platform
  • autonomous file organization
  • agent-driven execute mode
  • a backdoor around apply

apply.execute is intentionally absent from Movi MCP v1.

Minimal Wiring

Claude Code already exposes a first-party MCP management command, so the shortest current route is:

claude mcp add movi -- bash /absolute/path/to/movi-organizer/tooling/runtime/run_mcp_stdio.sh

If you want to inspect or remove the entry later:

claude mcp list
claude mcp remove movi

If your Claude Code setup wants the raw stdio shape instead of the helper command, the portable core is:

{
  "name": "movi",
  "command": "bash",
  "args": ["/absolute/path/to/movi-organizer/tooling/runtime/run_mcp_stdio.sh"]
}

If you prefer an installed entrypoint, use movi-mcp when it is available in your environment.
