+# Foundry and Hardhat Command Execution Implementation
+
+## Summary
+
+This implementation adds comprehensive support for executing Foundry and Hardhat commands through the Remix MCP Server, allowing AI agents to interact with these development frameworks.
+
+## Changes Made
+
+### 1. Plugin Extensions
+
+#### Foundry Plugin (`apps/remixdesktop/src/plugins/foundryPlugin.ts`)
+- **Added method:** `runCommand(commandArgs: string)`
+  - Executes any Foundry command (forge, cast, anvil)
+  - Validates commands to ensure they start with allowed tools
+  - Captures stdout and stderr
+  - Logs output to Remix terminal
+  - Returns exit code and output
+
+- **Updated methods list:** Added `'runCommand'` to the profile
+
+#### Hardhat Plugin (`apps/remixdesktop/src/plugins/hardhatPlugin.ts`)
+- **Added method:** `runCommand(commandArgs: string)`
+  - Executes any Hardhat command
+  - Validates commands to ensure they are Hardhat commands
+  - Captures stdout and stderr
+  - Logs output to Remix terminal
+  - Returns exit code and output
+
+- **Updated methods list:** Added `'runCommand'` to the profile
+
+### 2. MCP Server Handlers
+
+#### New Handlers in `FoundryHardhatHandler.ts`
+
+**FoundryRunCommandHandler**
+- Tool name: `foundry_run_command`
+- Executes any Foundry command (forge, cast, anvil)
+- Validates command format
+- Returns execution results including stdout, stderr, and exit code
+
+**HardhatRunCommandHandler**
+- Tool name: `hardhat_run_command`
+- Executes any Hardhat command
+- Validates command format (must be hardhat or npx hardhat)
+- Returns execution results including stdout, stderr, and exit code
+
+#### Updated Handlers
+
+**GetFoundryHardhatInfoHandler**
+- Added comprehensive information about command execution tools
+- Included example commands for various operations:
+  - Testing (forge test, npx hardhat test)
+  - Deployment scripts (forge script, npx hardhat run)
+  - Contract interaction (cast commands)
+  - Local nodes (anvil, npx hardhat node)
+
+### 3. Tool Registration
+
+Updated `createFoundryHardhatTools()` to include:
+- `foundry_run_command` - Execute any Foundry command
+- `hardhat_run_command` - Execute any Hardhat command
+
+Total tools: 7 (up from 5)
+
+## Available Commands
+
+### Foundry Commands
+
+**Testing:**
+- `forge test` - Run all tests
+- `forge test -vvv` - Verbose test output
+- `forge test --match-test testName` - Run specific test
+- `forge test --match-contract ContractName` - Run tests for specific contract
+
+**Scripts:**
+- `forge script scripts/Deploy.s.sol` - Run deployment script
+- `forge script scripts/Deploy.s.sol --rpc-url $URL --broadcast` - Deploy and broadcast
+
+**Contract Interaction (Cast):**
+- `cast call <address> "method(args)" <params>` - Call contract method
+- `cast send <address> "method(args)" <params>` - Send transaction
+- `cast balance <address>` - Check balance
+
+**Development:**
+- `anvil` - Start local Ethereum node
+- `forge build` - Build contracts
+- `forge clean` - Clean build artifacts
+
+### Hardhat Commands
+
+**Testing:**
+- `npx hardhat test` - Run all tests
+- `npx hardhat test --grep "pattern"` - Run specific tests
+- `npx hardhat coverage` - Generate coverage report
+
+**Deployment:**
+- `npx hardhat run scripts/deploy.js` - Run deployment script
+- `npx hardhat run scripts/deploy.js --network <network>` - Deploy to specific network
+
+**Verification:**
+- `npx hardhat verify --network <network> <address> <args>` - Verify contract
+
+**Development:**
+- `npx hardhat node` - Start local Hardhat node
+- `npx hardhat console` - Interactive console
+- `npx hardhat accounts` - List accounts
+- `npx hardhat compile` - Compile contracts
+- `npx hardhat clean` - Clean artifacts
+
+## Security Features
+
+### Command Validation
+
+**Foundry:**
+- Commands MUST start with: `forge`, `cast`, or `anvil`
+- Validation occurs at both handler and plugin level
+- Invalid commands are rejected with clear error messages
+
+**Hardhat:**
+- Commands MUST be Hardhat commands
+- Must start with `hardhat` or `npx hardhat`
+- Validation occurs at both handler and plugin level
+- Invalid commands are rejected with clear error messages
+
+### Execution Security
+
+- Commands execute in the current working directory only
+- stdout and stderr are captured and logged
+- Exit codes are returned for error handling
+- No arbitrary shell commands allowed
+- Shell execution is scoped to validated framework commands
+
+## Usage Examples
+
+### Running Tests
+
+**Foundry:**
+```json
+{
+  "name": "foundry_run_command",
+  "arguments": {
+    "command": "forge test -vvv"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Hardhat:**
+```json
+{
+  "name": "hardhat_run_command",
+  "arguments": {
+    "command": "npx hardhat test --grep 'MyTest'"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Running Deployment Scripts
+
+**Foundry:**
+```json
+{
+  "name": "foundry_run_command",
+  "arguments": {
+    "command": "forge script scripts/Deploy.s.sol --rpc-url http://localhost:8545 --broadcast"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Hardhat:**
+```json
+{
+  "name": "hardhat_run_command",
+  "arguments": {

+- `command`: The command that was run
+- `exitCode`: Exit code from the command
+- `stdout`: Standard output

+
+## Benefits
+
+1. **Flexibility:** AI agents can now execute any Foundry or Hardhat command, not just compile
+2. **Testing:** Full test suite execution with custom flags and filters
+3. **Deployment:** Run deployment scripts with network configurations
+4. **Contract Interaction:** Use Cast to interact with deployed contracts
+5. **Development:** Start local nodes, run console, and more
+6. **Security:** Command validation prevents arbitrary code execution
+7. **Observability:** All output is logged to Remix terminal for visibility
+
+## Integration with Remix IDE
+
+The implementation seamlessly integrates with Remix IDE:
+- Terminal output shows command execution in real-time
+- File watchers sync compilation artifacts automatically
+- Working directory context maintained across commands
+- Plugin architecture ensures clean separation of concerns
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+Potential improvements:
+- Add timeout configuration for long-running commands
+- Support for command cancellation
+- Better handling of interactive commands
+- Command history and replay functionality
+- Preset command templates for common operations
