domdomegg/computer-use-mcp: 💻 An MCP for Claude to control your computer (probably a bad idea)

💻 An model context protocol server for Claude to control your computer. This is very similar to computer use, but easy to set up and use locally.

Warning

At time of writing, models make frequent mistakes and are vulnerable to prompt injections. As this MCP server gives the model complete control of your computer, this could do a lot of damage. You should therefore treat this like giving a hyperactive toddler access to your computer - you probably want to supervise it closely, and consider only doing this in a sandboxed user account.

We implement a near identical computer use tool to Anthropic's official computer use guide, with some more nudging to prefer keyboard shortcuts.

This talks to your computer using nut.js.
