Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Connect AI assistants to authorized Windows and macOS devices for files, commands, and management.

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.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on the maker’s server: what you ask it goes through their server.
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

{
  "servers": {
    "remote": {
      "type": "http",

ChatGPT connects only to servers on the internet:

  1. Open ChatGPT on the web → Settings → Connectors (Apps)
  2. Press Create or Add (some plans need Developer mode under Advanced first)
  3. Paste the address below, give it a name and save
  4. If it asks you to sign in, sign in with the maker

Menu names can differ slightly by plan and over time.

Common questions

Is DNS-DATA Remote 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 in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.2.1) reached the registry 16 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

DNS-DATA Remote MCP

Let your AI assistant work with your own Windows or macOS computer—not just answer questions.

简体中文 · Official website · Monthly Free allowance · Setup guide · npm launcher

DNS-DATA is a hosted remote Model Context Protocol (MCP) service. Connect a compatible AI client to computers you have registered and authorized. From your AI conversation, you can inspect systems, work with files, run supported commands, and automate your own workflows.

Remote MCP URL: https://mcp.dns-data.com/mcp Transport: Streamable HTTP · Sign-in: OAuth 2.0 Device launcher: @dns-data/remote@latest (current stable release: 0.2.4)

Stable release update (2026-11-03): Run npx -y @dns-data/remote@latest to use version 0.2.4. Existing device pairings are preserved when updating the launcher. The internal Runtime identifier dnsdata-native-0.2.1 is independent of the npm launcher version.

Directory / integration note: DNS-DATA is a hosted Streamable HTTP MCP service with OAuth 2.0. This public repository provides integration documentation and metadata; the hosted backend is proprietary. The npx launcher connects a user's explicitly paired computer to DNS-DATA—it is not the MCP URL entered in an AI client. Review setup, security, and the official website for configuration and access requirements.

Free monthly allowance: 1 registered computer and 10,000 DNS-DATA MCP tool calls each month. The allowance automatically resets for the next month (00:00 UTC on the 1st). Set up DNS-DATA →

See what your AI can do

Use caseExample request
Inspect your computer“List my connected computers and check which ones are online.”
Work with files“Show me the files in my project folder and summarize the README.”
Troubleshoot“Check the running services and help diagnose why my development app stopped.”
Develop and automate“Inspect the project, propose a change, and run the approved build command.”
Inspect your registered device“On my connected computer, check running processes and report any unexpected errors.”

Commands, file access, and privileged operations depend on the connected client's capabilities and the permissions granted on the selected device. Review AI-proposed commands before allowing destructive or sensitive changes. See more practical examples.

Connect in three steps

1. Start DNS-DATA on the computer you want to use. Install Node.js 18+ on a supported Windows x64 or macOS Apple Silicon device, then run:

npx -y @dns-data/remote@latest

Sign in or register, follow the device pairing instructions, and confirm that the pairing code and computer details match. Keep the launcher window open while working; closing it disconnects the device.

2. Add DNS-DATA to a compatible AI client. In the client's remote MCP / Streamable HTTP settings, use:

https://mcp.dns-data.com/mcp

Approve DNS-DATA OAuth authorization. The client may support automatic OAuth registration; setup details differ between ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and other MCP-capable applications.

3. Try a safe first request:

Use DNS-DATA to list my registered devices and tell me which are online.

Then select an online device before asking the AI to perform an authorized operation. Full setup instructions →

Free monthly allowance

The Free tier includes:

  • 1 registered Windows or macOS computer.
  • 10,000 DNS-DATA MCP tool calls each calendar month.
  • Automatic allowance reset next month, at 00:00 UTC on the 1st.

With launcher version 0.2.4 or newer, exhausted Free quota triggers a bilingual notice in the running device launcher and opens the official DNS-DATA Android app on Google Play for an optional subscription. Quota-limited calls can also resume after the next month's reset. Your DNS-DATA tool-call allowance does not increase the message, token or billing limits imposed by an AI provider.

Try the Free tier: setup guide →

How access is controlled

  • You sign in to your own DNS-DATA account and authorize the AI client through OAuth.
  • Each target computer must be separately paired and registered to that account; an OAuth connection alone does not grant device access.
  • The device-side runtime initiates the connection, so the standard workflow does not require exposing an inbound port on the computer.
  • Operations are available only when the authorized device is online and the account's entitlements permit them.
  • You can disconnect the runtime or unbind a registered device through the user console.

Important: An AI with terminal or file-writing access can make consequential changes. Only use computers you own or are authorized to administer; protect account credentials; verify commands and tool access. See Security.
