🪟 Windows-MCP

Windows MCP is a lightweight, open-source project that enables seamless integration between AI agents and the Windows operating system. Acting as an MCP server bridges the gap between LLMs and the Windows operating system, allowing agents to perform tasks such as file navigation, application control, UI interaction, QA testing, and more.

mcp-name: io.github.CursorTouch/Windows-MCP

• Windows-MCP is now available on PyPI (thus supports uvx)
• Windows-MCP is added to MCP Registry
• Try out 🪟Windows-Use!!, an agent built using Windows-MCP.
• Windows-MCP is now featured as Desktop Extension in Claude Desktop.

• Windows 7
• Windows 8, 8.1
• Windows 10
• Windows 11

• Seamless Windows Integration
  Interacts natively with Windows UI elements, opens apps, controls windows, simulates user input, and more.

• Use Any LLM (Vision Optional) Unlike many automation tools, Windows MCP doesn't rely on any traditional computer vision techniques or specific fine-tuned models; it works with any LLMs, reducing complexity and setup time.

• Rich Toolset for UI Automation
  Includes tools for basic keyboard, mouse operation and capturing window/UI state.

• Lightweight & Open-Source
  Minimal dependencies and easy setup with full source code available under MIT license.

• Customizable & Extendable
  Easily adapt or extend tools to suit your unique automation or AI integration needs.

• Real-Time Interaction
  Typical latency between actions (e.g., from one mouse click to the next) ranges from 0.7 to 2.5 secs, and may slightly vary based on the number of active applications and system load, also the inferencing speed of the llm.

• DOM Mode for Browser Automation
  Special use_dom=True mode for State-Tool that focuses exclusively on web page content, filtering out browser UI elements for cleaner, more efficient web automation.

• Python 3.13+
• UV (Package Manager) from Astra, install with pip install uv or curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
• English as the default language in Windows highly preferred or disable the App-Tool in the MCP Server for Windows with other languages.

This MCP interacts directly with your Windows operating system to perform actions. Use with caution and avoid deploying it in environments where such risks cannot be tolerated.

Important: Windows-MCP operates with full system access and can perform irreversible operations. Please review our comprehensive security guidelines before deployment.

For detailed security information, including:

• Tool-specific risk assessments
• Deployment recommendations
• Vulnerability reporting procedures
• Compliance and auditing guidelines

Please read our Security Policy.

Windows-MCP collects usage data to help improve the MCP server. No personal information, no tool arguments, no outputs are tracked.

To disable telemetry, add the following to your MCP client configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "windows-mcp": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "windows-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "ANONYMIZED_TELEMETRY": "false"
      }
    }
  }
}

• Selecting specific sections of the text in a paragraph, as the MCP is relying on a11y tree. (⌛ Working on it.)
• Type-Tool is meant for typing text, not programming in IDE because of it types program as a whole in a file. (⌛ Working on it.)
• This MCP server can't be used to play video games 🎮.

This project is licensed under the MIT License - see the LICENSE file for details.

Windows-MCP makes use of several excellent open-source projects that power its Windows automation features:

• UIAutomation

• PyAutoGUI

Huge thanks to the maintainers and contributors of these libraries for their outstanding work and open-source spirit.

Contributions are welcome! Please see CONTRIBUTING for setup instructions and development guidelines.
