Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

A harness for driving a Godot 4 project from an agent: addons, runtime bridge, MCP server, CLI.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Other

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • You fill in yourself: GODOT_PATH

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "gdharness": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "gdharness"
      ],
      "env": {
        "GODOT_PATH": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add gdharness --env GODOT_PATH=your-value -- npx -y gdharness

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "gdharness": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "gdharness"
      ],
      "env": {
        "GODOT_PATH": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "gdharness": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "gdharness"
      ],
      "env": {
        "GODOT_PATH": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

Values you fill in

  • GODOT_PATH env
    Absolute path to the Godot 4.7 or newer executable. Without it, the usual install locations are searched.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

What it can do

Runs on your computer; the tool list appears in your AI app after you install it.

Common questions

Is Gdharness safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.3.90) reached the registry today.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

README from the maker

Open the README

Copied from the maker’s repo as written. PopNx MCP has not reviewed or endorsed it. HTML, images and scripts are removed. Links lead off this site.

gdharness

An agent cannot see a running game. It reads your scripts and guesses at the rest: whether the button is on screen, whether the panel updated, whether that error mattered.

gdharness is an MCP server and four Godot addons. Through them the agent asks the open editor and the running game what the screen says and where a control is. It can also ask what a property holds now, what the console printed, and what broke on which line.

Install

Hand this to your agent:

Install gdharness here by following https://aureliolo.github.io/gdharness/agent.md,

then tell me what it asked you to recommend back to me.

Or do it yourself, and pick your harness: aureliolo.github.io/gdharness.

The loop it exists for

editor_run      { "op": "start", "projectPath": "C:/games/shop" }

runtime_inspect { "op": "find", "says": "Buy" } // the button, by the word on it runtime_input { "op": "click", "nodePath": "/root/Shop/Ledger/BuyButton" } runtime_inspect { "op": "text", "nodePath": "/root/Shop/Ledger" } // what the panel says now editor_output { "projectPath": "C:/games/shop" } // errors and warnings, with backtraces

The open editor plays the game, so you can set a breakpoint and read the variables in scope when it stops.

Writes answer with what the engine holds afterwards, never an echo of the request. A tool that cannot answer says which state it is in and what would change it.
