As a follow up to the discord thread and in accordance with the WG Lifecycle docs I'm raising this PR to add a proposal for Filesystems Working Group.

Proposed facilitators are Sambhav Kothari (Bloomberg) and Ola Hungerford (Nordstrom). Core Maintainer sponsorship is being sought.

Motivation and Context

Motivation and context are covered in the first part of the proposal.

Types of changes

  • Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)
  • New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
  • Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to change)
  • Documentation update

Checklist

  • I have read the MCP Documentation
  • My code follows the repository's style guidelines
  • New and existing tests pass locally
  • I have added appropriate error handling
  • I have added or updated documentation as needed

There are not facilitators, but working group leads. It should follow the template https://modelcontextprotocol.io/community/charter-template

@dsp-ant is it possible for @DanielTemesgen to be the lead as well or does it have to be an existing maintainer?

Hi @dsp-ant, makes sense. I see the lifecycle docs have changed here #3284 so I'll follow that process and update.

Hi @dsp-ant, I've made the requested changes. Could you please give this another look?

Follow the Group Charter Template and the WG formation flow: move the
document to docs/community/working-groups/filesystems.mdx and add the
navigation entry to docs/docs.json.

Facilitator(s) becomes a Leadership table listing WG Leads. Adds the
Group Type, Out of Scope, Related Groups, Authority & Decision Rights,
Membership, Operations, and Changelog sections.

Correct the referenced proposals against GitHub. SEP-1708 is closed,
SEP-2571 and SEP-2532 are pull requests, and all three are now cited by
their full titles. Drop the unverified method count for the files/*
family.
