Which integrations are available for this server?

Enables interaction with Tauri applications, allowing AI agents to capture screenshots, inspect the DOM, simulate user inputs like clicking and typing, and execute JavaScript within the application's webview context.

How do I use tauri-mcp?

1. Click on "Install Server". 2. Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state. 3. In the chat, type @ followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@tauri-mcp Click the login button and type 'user@example.com' in the email field." That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed. Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.

tauri-mcp

A Tauri plugin that lets AI agents (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.) interact with your Tauri app through screenshots, DOM inspection, and input simulation using the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

Features

Screenshots — capture the app window on macOS, Linux, and Windows
DOM access — read the full HTML of any webview window
Element interaction — click, type, drag, hover via simulated input
JavaScript execution — run arbitrary JS in the webview context
Element position — find elements by id, class, tag, or text content

Installation

# Cargo.toml [dependencies] tauri-plugin-mcp = { git = "https://github.com/DonsWayo/tauri-mcp", optional = true }

Register the plugin in your Tauri app:

// src-tauri/src/lib.rs #[cfg(feature = "mcp-e2e")] app.plugin(tauri_plugin_mcp::init())?;

The plugin opens a Unix domain socket at /tmp/<app-name>-mcp.sock that MCP clients connect to.

macOS Screenshots

The plugin uses screencapture -l <CGWindowID> instead of xcap. This means:

No Screen Recording permission required for the Tauri app itself
Only Terminal (or your terminal emulator) needs Screen Recording access
Works with unsigned debug builds without code signing entitlements
Avoids a crash in xcap::Window::all() triggered by certain system windows on recent macOS versions
