Thanks, I wasn't aware of the Model Context Protocol!

For anyone interested - you can extend Claude's functionality by allowing it to run commands via a local "MCP server" (e.g. make code commits, create files, retrieve third party library code etc).

Then when you're running Claude it asks for permission to run a specific tool inside your usual Claude UI.
