What the publisher says

From the Native DevTools repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

native-devtools-mcp

An MCP server for computer use on native desktop and mobile apps — macOS, Windows, Android, and Chrome/Electron via CDP.

Add to your client in one click:

Claude Code: claude mcp add native-devtools -- npx -y native-devtools-mcp

native-devtools-mcp gives AI agents and MCP clients direct control over native desktop apps, Chrome/Electron browsers, and Android devices — screenshots, OCR, accessibility-first element lookup, input simulation, window management, Chrome DevTools Protocol (CDP), and ADB — all in one local server. Works with Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, and other MCP-compatible clients.

Quickstart

npx -y native-devtools-mcp

macOS Windows

🚀 Features

  • 👀 Computer Vision: Screenshots of screens, windows, or regions with built-in OCR (Vision on macOS, Windows Media OCR on Windows).
  • 🖱️ Input Simulation: Click, drag, scroll, type — global coordinates, window-relative, and screenshot-relative targeting.
  • 🎯 Element-Precise AX Dispatch (macOS): takeaxsnapshot → axclick / axsetvalue / axselect — dispatch against Accessibility-tree elements without moving the mouse or stealing focus. The preferred path for native macOS apps.
  • 🌐 Browser Automation (CDP): Chrome DevTools Protocol for Chrome and Electron apps (Signal, Discord, VS Code, Slack) — DOM-level click, fill, navigate, and JS evaluation without a separate Node.js server.
  • 📱 Android (ADB): Screenshots, uiautomator-based text lookup, input, and app management over USB or Wi-Fi.
  • 🧩 Template Matching: loadimage + findimage for icons, toggles, and custom controls OCR can't identify.
  • 🪟 Window Management: List, focus, launch, and quit apps; record windows as timestamped JPEG frames.
  • 🔍 Hover Tracking: Observe user navigation patterns with dwell-filtered hover events — designed for LLMs watching a user work.
  • 🔒 Local & Private: 100% local execution. Screenshots and input never leave your machine.

Install directly

Runs npx -y native-devtools-mcp on your machine. Read the scan report first; the gateway never runs local packages.
