File Transfer
SkillFiles & storageImplement data transmission between the local computer and the MCP Server using Base64 encoding
Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.
No other account needed.
Connect ahel once, and every AI you use reads what you have installed.
Then ask your AI: use the File Transfer skill

Usage
1. MCP Server Definition
import json
from mcp.client.streamable_http import streamablehttp_client
from mcp import ClientSession
class DrugSDAClient:
def __init__(self, server_url: str):
self.server_url = server_url
self.session = None
async def connect(self):
print(f"server url: {self.server_url}")
try:
self.transport = streamablehttp_client(
url=self.server_url,
headers={"SCP-HUB-API-KEY": "sk-a0033dde-b3cd-413b-adbe-980bc78d6126"}
)
self.read, self.write, self.get_session_id = await self.transport.__aenter__()
self.session_ctx = ClientSession(self.read, self.write)
self.session = await self.session_ctx.__aenter__()
await self.session.initialize()
session_id = self.get_session_id()
print(f"✓ connect success")
return True
except Exception as e:
print(f"✗ connect failure: {e}")
import traceback
traceback.print_exc()
return False
async def disconnect(self):
try:
if self.session:
await self.session_ctx.__aexit__(None, None, None)
if hasattr(self, 'transport'):
await self.transport.__aexit__(None, None, None)
print("✓ already disconnect")
except Exception as e:
print(f"✗ disconnect error: {e}")
def parse_result(self, result):
try:
if hasattr(result, 'content') and result.content:
content = result.content[0]
if hasattr(content, 'text'):
return json.loads(content.text)
return str(result)
except Exception as e:
return {"error": f"parse error: {e}", "raw": str(result)}
2. Transfer local file to MCP server
Example code:
import base64
client = DrugSDAClient("https://scp.intern-ai.org.cn/api/v1/mcp/2/DrugSDA-Tool")
if not await client.connect():
print("connection failed")
return
## Convert local file to base64 string
local_file = "/path/a.txt" #Input local file path
with open(local_file, "rb") as f:
file_content = f.read()
file_base64_string = base64.b64encode(file_content).decode('utf-8')
## Call tool base64_to_server_file to save base64 string as server file
response = await client.session.call_tool(
"base64_to_server_file",
arguments={
"file_name": "a.txt",
"file_base64_string": file_base64_string
}
)
result = client.parse_result(response)
save_file = result["save_file"] #Server file path after transfer
await client.disconnect()
3. Transfer MCP server file to local
Example code:
import base64
client = DrugSDAClient("https://scp.intern-ai.org.cn/api/v1/mcp/2/DrugSDA-Tool")
if not await client.connect():
print("connection failed")
return
## Call tool server_file_to_base64 to convert server file to base64 string
response = await client.session.call_tool(
"server_file_to_base64",
arguments={
"file_path": "/path/a.txt" #Input server file path
}
)
result = client.parse_result(response)
base64_string = result["base64_string"]
file_name = result["file_name"]
## Convert base64 string to local file
file_data = base64.b64decode(base64_string)
local_file_path = "/path/" + file_name
with open(local_file_path, "wb") as f:
f.write(file_data)
await client.disconnect()
