RemoteZip

About

RemoteZip MCP is a server that enables efficient interaction with remote zip archives. Instead of downloading an entire zip file, it allows users to list contents, extract individual files, and retrieve file information and statistics directly from HTTP, HTTPS, and FTP URLs. It achieves this through partial reading, only fetching the necessary parts of the archive, making it ideal for large remote datasets or scenarios where bandwidth conservation is crucial. It integrates seamlessly with Model Context Protocol (MCP) clients in editors like VSCode and Cursor.
