ScreenMonitorMCP
Uses OpenAI models (e.g., GPT-4o) for AI-powered screen analysis, UI element recognition, and predictive behavior learning.
Click on "Install Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@ScreenMonitorMCPAnalyze the UI elements on my screen."
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.
