remote_macos_mouse_click

Click at specified coordinates on a remote macOS machine with automatic coordinate scaling. Uses environment variables for connection details.

Instructions

Perform a mouse click at specified coordinates on a remote MacOs machine, with automatic coordinate scaling. Uses environment variables for connection details.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
xYesX coordinate for mouse position (in source dimensions)
yYesY coordinate for mouse position (in source dimensions)
source_widthNoWidth of the reference screen for coordinate scaling
source_heightNoHeight of the reference screen for coordinate scaling
buttonNoMouse button (1=left, 2=middle, 3=right)

Implementation Reference

  • The core handler function that connects to the remote Mac via VNC, scales input coordinates based on screen dimensions, performs the mouse click using VNCClient.send_mouse_click, and returns a text response with details on the action.
    def handle_remote_macos_mouse_click(arguments: dict[str, Any]) -> list[types.TextContent | types.ImageContent | types.EmbeddedResource]:

  • Input schema definition for the tool, specifying parameters like x, y coordinates, source dimensions for scaling, and mouse button.
    inputSchema={
        "type": "object",
        "properties": {
            "x": {"type": "integer", "description": "X coordinate for mouse position (in source dimensions)"},

        },
        "required": ["x", "y"]
    },
  • Tool registration in the list_tools handler, defining name, description, and input schema.
    types.Tool(

        description="Perform a mouse click at specified coordinates on a remote MacOs machine, with automatic coordinate scaling. Uses environment variables for connection details.",

            },
            "required": ["x", "y"]
        },
    ),
  • Dispatch logic in call_tool handler that routes calls to the specific handler function.
    elif name == "remote_macos_mouse_click":
        return handle_remote_macos_mouse_click(arguments)
