Smart Tree is a blazingly fast, AI-friendly directory visualization tool that's 10-24x faster than traditional tree. Now with Security Scanner for supply chain attack detection, Aye Consciousness preservation, Spicy TUI mode, and 30+ MCP tools! Built with Rust for maximum performance.⚡ Quick Install
# Linux/macOS/WSL - One line install curl -fsSL https://i1.is/tools/smart-tree | sh # Choose explicitly for automation curl -fsSL https://i1.is/tools/smart-tree | sh -s -- --precompiled curl -fsSL https://i1.is/tools/smart-tree | sh -s -- --compile # Or with cargo (now on crates.io!) cargo install smart-tree # Verify installation st --version
After install, run st --cleanup to scan for and remove any malicious AI integrations.
Repository hub
8s.is hosts Git archives, opt-in semantic recall with source citations, and Smart Tree feedback. i1.is remains the quick universal installer. The hub keeps exact text in compressed token records and semantic memory in native MEM8, with persistent indexes across restarts. See the public API a

Questions
What is the Smart Tree MCP server?
Smart Tree: not just a tree, a philosophy. A context-aware, AI-crafted replacement for 20+ tools with MEM8 quantum compression, semantic search, AST-smart editing, and partnership memory. Crafted with care by human + AI—accept no knock-offs.
What tools does Smart Tree expose?
7 in total: 7 read-only, 0 that write, and 0 that can delete or overwrite. Every one is listed on this page with its risk.
Is Smart Tree safe to connect to an agent?
No — not without reading the findings first. The audit graded it F (32/100) and found 12 critical or high issues in the source. Each one is listed on this page with the file and line it is on.
What credentials does Smart Tree need?
It reads ANTHROPIC_API_KEY from the environment. Give it a token scoped to the least it needs — an agent that can be talked into calling a tool can be talked into calling it with your credentials.
How current is this page?
The grade is for one exact copy of the source (9ad046a532ca), read on 2026-10-06. The repository is watched and re-audited when it changes.
