Summary
Wraps the file.kiwi API to give Claude instant file sharing capabilities. Exposes a single upload_to_kiwi tool that takes a local file path and returns a shareable download link in seconds, even for large files. The upload is end to end encrypted and has no size limits. Links work immediately since downloads can start while uploads are still in progress. Files auto delete after 90 hours. No API keys or authentication required. You'll want this when you need to quickly share files from a conversation without opening a browser or dealing with cloud storage APIs. Pairs well with the filesystem MCP server if your environment restricts local file access by default.
Keep your Mac awake while Claude Code and 40+ AI agents run. Sleeps when they're idle.

Once the MCP server is connected, you can ask the AI assistant to share files:
- "Share this file: C:\Users\me\report.pdf"
- "Upload /home/user/photo.png to file.kiwi"
- "Generate a download link for ./presentation.pptx"
The tool will upload the file and return a shareable link like https://file.kiwi/abcdef12#secretKey.
Setup
Test before use
npx -y @file-kiwi/filekiwi-mcp-server "C:\User\your_file.ext"
Claude Code (CLI)
claude mcp add filekiwi -- npx -y @file-kiwi/filekiwi-mcp-server
Claude Desktop / Other MCP Clients
{
"mcpServers": {
"filekiwi": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@file-kiwi/filekiwi-mcp-server"]
}
}
}
File Access
Some environments (e.g. Claude Desktop) restrict local file system access by default. In that case, the AI may not be able to read file paths on your machine. To enable it, add the filesystem MCP server:
{
"mcpServers": {
"filekiwi": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@file-kiwi/filekiwi-mcp-server"]
},
"filesystem": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "C:/Users/username"]
}
}
}

No. Not at all.

Is it free?
Yes, free for any size. There is a free download period per file — see API docs.
