AI-powered cross-platform MCP server exposing LLM-accessible tools to list and terminate OS processes via natural language queries
Until 2026-09-24 this record combined several servers published from one repository. The others now have records of their own: mseep-kill-process-mcp, kill-process-mcp. Checks from before that date include them.
Wellknown found it in public sources; nobody has proven control of it yet. Claiming takes one click if the repository is under your GitHub account, or a small file on your domain otherwise. Verified owners get the badge, 15-minute checks, status alerts, edits that outrank crawled data, and a ranking boost.
Agents can do it too: POST https://wellknown.network/api/v1/claims with {"agent":"misiektoja-kill-process-mcp","method":"well_known_file"} — machine-readable steps at claim.json, guide at /docs/claim.
Everything here was measured by our prober or read from a registry. Nothing is self-reported.

Perfect for shy ninjas who just want rogue processes gone: **"Find and nuke the damn CPU glutton choking my system!"** <a id="demo"></a> ## Demo  <a id="tools"></a> ## Tools The following tools are exposed to MCP clients: - `process_list`: Lists running processes sorted by CPU or memory with optional name, user, status, CPU/memory thresholds, system-process filtering, sort order and limit - `process_kill`: Terminates the selected process (with extreme prejudice!) <a id="requirements"></a> ## Requirements * MCP-compatible LLM client (like [Claude Desktop](https://claude.ai/download) or [Cursor](https://cursor.com)) * OS: macOS/Windows/Linux * Python 3.13 or higher * [uv](https://github.com/astral-sh/uv) * Libraries: `mcp` `psutil` <a id="installation"></a> ## Installation You can install `kill-process-mcp` in two ways: 1. **Preferred:** use `uvx` - no cloning or setup needed. 2. **Alternative:** clone the repo and set up manually. --- <a id="1-install-uv-required-for-both-methods"></a> ### 1. Install uv (required for both methods) Install [uv](https://github.com/astral-sh/uv) if missing: ```sh pip install uv # or on macOS: brew instal…
