Shellquote tools (4)

write = sends, deletes, buys or posts

Read from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.

  • quote_bash

    Escape an argument for safe use in bash / sh / zsh. Returns a single-quoted form (or bareword if safe), guaranteed to suppress all metacharacter expansion. Pass argv to quote_bash_argv if you have multiple args.

  • quote_bash_argv

    Escape a list of arguments for bash and join with single spaces. Returns a single command-ready string.

  • quote_cmd

    Escape an argument for Windows cmd.exe. Wraps in double quotes and doubles embedded quotes. Note: cmd.exe has unfixable corner cases with delayed expansion (`^ ! %`). Prefer PowerShell when you control the shell choice.

  • quote_powershell

    Escape an argument for PowerShell. Returns a single-quoted PS string with embedded single quotes doubled. No variable expansion.

Install Shellquote in Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code

Runs npx -y @mukundakatta/shellquote-mcp on your machine. Read the scan report first; the gateway never runs local packages.

What the publisher says

From the Shellquote repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

mcp-stack

Fourteen small MCP servers for everyday LLM / RAG / agent work. Each ships independently on npm, listed in the official MCP Registry, and is callable from Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, Windsurf, Zed, and any other MCP-compatible client.

RAG / agent helpers

Reliable transforms LLMs reach for tools instead of imagining

Sibling libraries

The first four wrap or re-implement logic from the user's Rust + Python work:

ragdrift-py (PyPI) — five-dimensional drift detection

  • ragdrift (crates.io) /

stopstream, citecite, ragmetric — pure-Rust crates from the rust-llm-stack workspace

  • embedrank, promptbudget,

The MCP servers are independent: they implement the logic they need in plain JavaScript so installing them doesn't pull a Rust toolchain.

Install (any of them)

Add to your MCP client config. Example for Claude Desktop:
