## Description
Administer a Linux server from an MCP client such as Cursor or VS Code: read files and tail logs, check/reload/restart systemd services, manage cron jobs inside a dedicated crontab section, run read-only MySQL queries, drive WP-CLI on WordPress sites, run safe Git commands, and execute sandboxed Python. Directories, services and WordPress sites are allowlisted in config.json, and every tool returns a uniform {success, data, error, meta} response. Runs as a systemd service over HTTP.

## Claude Desktop Quick Installation
Heuristic fallback — verify the package name and runner against the repository README before running it. Uses `uvx` (confidence: low):

```json
"mcpServers": {
  "mcp-linux-tools": {
    "command": "uvx",
    "args": ["gerard-kanters-mcp-linux-tools"]
  }
}
```
