Computer Control MCP is a server designed for manipulating various computer control tasks like mouse movements, keyboard typing, and screen management using technologies such as PyAutoGUI and RapidOCR. It operates without external dependencies and provides functionalities similar to Anthropic's 'computer-use', optimized for Windows.

Computer Control MCP

MCP server that provides computer control capabilities, like mouse, keyboard, OCR, etc. using PyAutoGUI, RapidOCR, ONNXRuntime. Similar to 'computer-use' by Anthropic. With Zero External Dependencies.

  • Only tested on Windows. Should work on other platforms.

MCP Computer Control Demo

Quick Usage (MCP Setup Using uvx)

Note: Running uvx computer-control-mcp@latest for the first time will download python dependencies (around 70MB) which may take some time. Recommended to run this in a terminal before using it as MCP. Subsequent runs will be instant.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "computer-control-mcp": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["computer-control-mcp@latest"]
    }
  }
}

OR install globally with pip:

pip install computer-control-mcp

Then run the server with:

computer-control-mcp # instead of uvx computer-control-mcp, so you can use the latest version, also you can `uv cache clean` to clear the cache and `uvx` again to use latest version.
