Smart Tree MCP server

Smart Tree is a helper program that shows your computer's folders and files in a clear, tidy way. It is made to work well with AI assistants, so your AI can look at your project and understand it quickly. It is handy if you work with lots of files and want your AI to help you find things or keep track of what you learned.

What this MCP server does

You ask your AI something like "what is in my project folder?" Your AI then uses this helper to look at your folders. The helper scans the files and sends back a neat list or summary. Your AI shows you the answer in the chat. It can also save little notes for later, so your AI remembers things between sessions.

Try asking your AI

• “Show me the folder structure of my project”
• “Find all files that mention authentication”
• “Remember that we decided to use JWT tokens for login”
• “What did we work on in this project last time?”

What it gives back to you

You get back lists of files and folders, short summaries, or search results. If you asked it to remember something, it confirms that the note was saved. Sometimes it shows a tidy tree view right in the chat. It can also tell you if it found anything unusual in your AI settings.
