How Tactus compares

Against every graded MCP server, from our own scans and uptime checks. Updated after each scan run.

Safety score: 78/100; higher than 57% of 48,255 servers
Tools: 11; the typical server has 7
Tools that change things: 0%; typical: 0%. Fewer write tools means less an agent can break

Tactus

A content-agnostic MCP server that lets any AI agent control intimate hardware through a clean, safe tool interface.

Tactus is a thin, neutral control layer. It wraps Buttplug / Intiface — so a single integration reaches 750+ devices across ~26 brands — and exposes them to AI agents as Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools. It forwards hardware control commands only. It does not generate, host, or store any content of any kind.

one-call emergency stop, and fail-safe stop semantics are built in and on by default — this is the headline feature, not an afterthought.

Safety first. Intensity clamping, an independent watchdog auto-stop, a

just talk to it over a local WebSocket.

One-line install. npx -y tactus-mcp, no clone or build.
OS-agnostic. Tactus never touches Bluetooth. Intiface owns the radio; we

Everything runs locally on your machine. Tactus is a Buttplug client that connects to a locally running Intiface Central/Engine at ws://127.0.0.1:12345.

Prerequisites

Devices → Manage Simulated Devices).

Install Intiface Central.
Open it and click Start Server.
Pair your device (or, for development, add a simulated device under

Install & configure

Tactus runs over stdio via npx. Add it to your MCP client config.

Claude Desktop / Claude Code (claudedesktopconfig.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tactus": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "tactus-mcp"],
      "env": { "MAX_INTENSITY": "1.0" }
    }
  }
}

The same command/args work for any MCP client that launches stdio servers (Cursor, Cline, Continue, etc.).

Tools

All intensities are normalized to 0.0–1.0. Every tool returns both structured data and human-readable text.

Safety

The safety layer wraps every driving command and is on by default:
