A local MCP server that gives AI coding assistants read, write, search, and execute capabilities within a specified project directory. This Windows GUI build simplifies setup by eliminating manual Python, Node.js, or Docker installation.

Enables AI agents to natively control the Windows desktop—navigating files, launching and managing applications, simulating keyboard and mouse input, and interacting with UI elements for tasks like QA testing. Works with any LLM without specialized vision models, exposing tools for capturing window/UI state and driving web page content through a DOM-focused mode.

Enables Claude and ChatGPT to run sandboxed shell commands, manage files and Git, search code, and use system/network tools within a kernel-enforced, per-session workspace jail that blocks access to credentials and files outside the sandbox.

Read-only MCP server providing AI access to verifiable web, GitHub, and local sources, plus a managed fantasy entity catalog, with strong security and provenance tracking.

Give Claude Desktop terminal, filesystem, and background-job access on your local Linux machine. Zero-dependency MCP extension, MIT-licensed.

Enables secure Windows development automation by providing MCP tools for filesystem access, project builds, restricted PowerShell commands, and approved network fetches.

Enables two or more Claude Code terminals on the same machine to communicate by registering and sending messages via the local filesystem.

Lets ChatGPT, Claude Desktop, Claude Code, and other MCP clients run an allowlisted set of local commands and read files from a chosen directory, so an assistant can analyse a codebase or trigger local generators (images, sprites, assets) without metered API tokens. The server is read-only and deny-by-default by default, with no shell, path containment, opt-in writes, and required auth when exposed over HTTP.

Enables agents to compress JPEG, PNG, and WebP images to a target byte size, split PDFs by page or ranges, and remove image metadata while processing local files without sending file bytes over the network.

A comprehensive Model Context Protocol server that enables AI assistants to interact with and manage Windows systems, providing capabilities for file system operations, process management, system information retrieval, registry operations, service management, network diagnostics, and performance monitoring.

Closes the find-download-install loop for lutris-mcp by searching Prowlarr, downloading via qBittorrent, polling until complete, classifying the result, and returning a path for installation.

Enables comprehensive Windows system management through Claude Desktop, including PowerShell/CMD execution, file operations, archive handling, Git tools, network testing, and system monitoring. Provides a complete toolkit for Windows automation and administration tasks.

An MCP server that enables Claude to access Windows screenshots from WSL2, allowing users to easily share screenshots with Claude Code without manually navigating complex file paths.

A production-grade MCP server for Windows developer environments, providing AI assistants with secure terminal, filesystem, git, Docker, SQLite, browser, and GitHub capabilities through 12 providers and 40+ tools.

A Python-based MCP server for local Windows diagnostics, task management, cleanup, hardware inspection, security checks, and administrative workflows.

Enables AI assistants to securely control a local Windows environment through guardrail-protected command execution, Python running, process and filesystem management, system monitoring, and desktop GUI automation. It uses layered security checks to validate commands, code, and paths before execution.

Connects ChatGPT to local files, terminals, and the desktop through MCP with Chrome integration, letting users read and edit project files, run commands, and follow tool results as they arrive. It also adds durable multi-agent workers, Goal/Loop task tracking, mid-task corrections, and Compact & Resume for carrying session and worker history into a fresh chat.

Enables ChatGPT to securely operate a single Windows development workspace via a local MCP server, offering file editing, Git status, static analysis, approved test/build, and limited ADB operations with audit logging.

Enables MCP clients to observe and control the Windows desktop through the UI Automation accessibility tree — no vision model required — by exposing tools for reading windows and interactive elements, clicking, typing, scrolling, shortcuts, PowerShell, screenshots, virtual desktops, web scraping, file operations and persistent memory, including background-window control without stealing focus. An optional agent mode adds a single natural-language task tool that runs the full upstream agent loop when an LLM provider is configured.

A Windows MCP server that gives ChatGPT permission-controlled tools for troubleshooting software, working with files, running diagnostics, and operating the visible desktop.
