Which app do you use?

ClaudeClaude CodeCursorVS CodeChatGPT

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": {
    "tauri": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@hypothesi/tauri-mcp-server"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add tauri -- npx -y @hypothesi/tauri-mcp-server

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tauri": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@hypothesi/tauri-mcp-server"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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": {
    "tauri": {

      "command": "npx",
      "args": [

Common questions

Is MCP Server Tauri 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 (0.13.2) reached the registry 15 days ago.

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?

@hypothesi/tauri-mcp-server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables AI assistants like Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf to build, test, and debug Tauri® v2 applications.

📖 [Full Documentation](https://hypothesi.github.io/mcp-server-tauri)

Features

Category	Capabilities
🎯 UI Automation	Screenshots, clicks, typing, scrolling, element finding, visual element picker
🔍 IPC Monitoring	Capture and inspect Tauri IPC calls in real-time
📱 Mobile Dev	List Android emulators & iOS simulators
📋 Logs	Stream console, Android logcat, iOS, and system logs

Quick Start

1. Add the MCP Bridge Plugin to Your Tauri App

cargo add tauri-plugin-mcp-bridge

// src-tauri/src/main.rs

fn main() { let mut builder = tauri::Builder::default();

#[cfg(debug_assertions)] { builder = builder.plugin(tauri_plugin_mcp_bridge::init()); }

builder .run(tauri::generate_context!()) .expect("error while running tauri application"); }

Note: The npm package @hypothesi/tauri-plugin-mcp-bridge is optional—only needed if you want to call the plugin from your app's frontend code. The MCP server communicates with the Rust plugin directly via WebSocket.

2. Configure Your AI Assistant

Use aix to add the server to your AI assistant:

npx -y @a1st/aix add mcp tauri --command 'npx @hypothesi/tauri-mcp-server' --user

Supported clients: claude-code, cursor, windsurf, vscode, cline, roo-cline, claude, zed, goose, warp, codex

Terminal CLI

If you want to call the same tools directly from a shell, install the companion CLI package:

npm install -g @hypothesi/tauri-mcp-cli

tauri-mcp driver-session start --port 9223 tauri-mcp driver-session status --json

The CLI keeps the underlying MCP server warm in the background so stateful commands such as driver_session work across separate invocations.

Multi-App Support

The MCP server supports connecting to multiple Tauri apps simultaneously. Each app runs on a unique port, and the most recently connected app becomes the "default" app.

Key Features:

Connect to multiple apps on different ports
Default app used when no appIdentifier specified
Target specific apps using port number or bundle ID
Stop individual sessions or all sessions at once

Example Usage:

// Connect to first app

await driver_session({ action: "start", port: 9223 })

// Connect to second app await driver_session({ action: "start", port: 9224 })

// Check status - shows both apps with default indicator await driver_session({ action: "status" })

// Use default app (most recent - port 9224) await webview_screenshot()

// Target specific app by port await webview_screenshot({ appIdentifier: 9223 })

// Stop specific app await driver_session({ action: "stop", appIdentifier: 9223 })

// Stop all apps await driver_session({ action: "stop" })
