What is Port Cleaner Server?
This MCP server provides a reliable solution for managing port conflicts during software development. It scans for processes occupying specified ports across different operating systems and terminates them safely. The server's core functions include port scanning, process listing, and process killing, all adhering to MCP specifications for seamless integration. The implementation uses platform-specific commands like 'lsof' and 'netstat' on Unix-based systems and 'tasklist' and 'taskkill' on Windows. It enhances development efficiency by automatically resolving port conflicts, reducing manual intervention and downtime in local testing and server environments.
