**The safety net for autonomous AI agents.**

</div>

`mcp-chronoshell` is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that grants AI agents the ability to execute terminal commands with a built-in "Undo Button." By utilizing hyper-fast, state-reverting snapshots, agents can safely write code, manipulate files, and run scripts without the risk of permanently breaking your local workspace.

## 🧠 How It Works: The Snapshot Architecture

When an agent is connected to Chronoshell, it gains access to a safe execution loop. The server exposes three primary tools to the LLM:

1. 📸 **`run_safe_command` (The Executor):** Before executing a shell command, the server takes a millisecond-fast snapshot of the current working directory, ignoring heavy directories (e.g., `node_modules`, `.venv`, `.git`).
2. ⏪ **`revert_workspace` (The Undo Button):** If the command exits with an error or causes unintended side effects, the agent can call this tool to instantly roll the directory back to its exact previous state.
3. 🗑️ **`commit_workspace` (The Garbage Collector):** If the command succeeds and the agent validates the output, it calls this tool to clear the snapshot cache and save disk space.

## ✨ Core Optimizations & Safety

* **Zero-Latency Backups:** Uses hardcoded blocklists and OS-level I/O optimizations to take snapshots in milliseconds, preventing the LLM from timing out.
* **Concurrent Multi-Agent Safety:** Injects cryptographic UUIDs into snapshot IDs, guaranteeing race-condition safety when multiple agents invoke commands simultaneously.
* **Smart Symlink Evasion:** Dynamically sniffs out an…
