systemd-mcp is an MCP server that auto-discovers systemd's varlink sockets, introspects the IDL, and exposes every method as a typed tool. On a typical system that's 50-80+ tools: units, journals, credentials, factory reset, you name it.

Zero configuration, ~370 lines of Rust. Requires systemd 260+.
