What is required to generate a sharable link for uploaded data?

Use the w3_open command (exposed by the server) which creates a w3s.link URL for the specified object, enabling easy sharing of content stored on storacha.network.

Can I use MCP IPFS Server with any MCP-compatible client?

Yes, the server is designed to be a generic MCP endpoint. After configuring the client to point to this server, any MCP-compatible tool can perform space management, upload/download, and other actions via the wrapped w3 commands.

How does MCP IPFS Server simplify using the w3 CLI?

It wraps all w3 CLI commands behind a Node.js server, exposing MCP tools like authentication, space and data management, sharing, delegations, and proofs through a single API, so clients don’t need to call the CLI directly.

What are the minimum system requirements to run MCP IPFS Server?

You need Node.js version 22.0.0 or higher and the @web3-storage/w3cli package installed globally and configured. The server can also be deployed via Docker if you prefer not to install Node directly.
