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": {
    "looktap": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@looktap/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add looktap -- npx -y @looktap/mcp

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

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

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

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": {
    "looktap": {

Common questions

Is looktap 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 (0.7.1) reached the registry 17 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?

@looktap/mcp

The MCP server for looktap: it lets your AI agent see, use and control the apps on your phone: an iPhone or Android device (simulator, emulator or real phone), and any app on it. It reads the screen as text, taps by label, types, swipes, takes screenshots and reads logs and crashes.

This package only starts the server. Everything else lives in @looktap/cli, which it installs, so you always get the latest looktap. If you already have the CLI installed, looktap mcp is the same server.

Set up

Claude Code

claude mcp add looktap -- npx -y @looktap/mcp

Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code and other clients

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

Claude Desktop: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
Cursor: ~/.cursor/mcp.json

Desktop apps start servers with a minimal PATH, so if yours can't find npx (common with nvm), install the CLI with npm install -g @looktap/cli and paste the config that looktap mcp --config prints. It uses absolute paths.

Requirements

Node 18+
iPhone: macOS with Xcode, and a simulator or a paired iPhone (a free Apple ID is enough). The looktap tool's boot "iPhone 16 Pro" starts a simulator, and devices lists what's connected
Android: adb, with an emulator (boot starts one) or a phone with USB or wireless debugging

Tools

ls, tap, tap_xy, long_press, fill, type, key, hide_keyboard, swipe, scroll_to, back, home, wait, screenshot (returns the image), logs, crashes, perf (CPU, memory, threads, or frames and jank), and looktap for any other command (devices, boot, capabilities, stop, expect, test, apps, launch --time …). Actions return the settled screen unless ls: false.
