Ziplark MCP Server

Free, fast, cross-platform archiver. Extracts ZIP, RAR (incl. RAR5), 7z, tar, ISO and the common compressed-tar variants; creates ZIP (with AES-256), 7z and tar archives. One small Rust engine, three ways to drive it: a desktop app, a CLI, and an MCP server.

People who work with aes 256, archiver and compression and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in HTML.
