Description

Computer Control MCP provides computer automation capabilities through a server that enables AI assistants to control mouse movements, keyboard input, take screenshots, perform OCR, and manage windows. Built with PyAutoGUI, RapidOCR, and ONNXRuntime, it offers similar functionality to Anthropic's 'computer-use' tool but with zero external dependencies. The implementation supports operations like clicking, typing, dragging, capturing screen content with text recognition, and window management, making it particularly useful for automating desktop tasks and enabling AI systems to interact directly with graphical user interfaces.
