Common questions
Is Yahboom MCP 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 (2.5.0b1) reached the registry 2 months ago.
Which apps can use it?
Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need MCPB on your computer.
What can I use instead?

Yahboom Raspbot v2 (Boomy) — MCP Server, Webapp & Documentation
MCP server and web dashboard for the Yahboom Raspbot v2 (Boomy) ROS 2 robot - lidar mapping, navigation, camera missions and voice control.
📖 [Installation Guide](INSTALL.md) — quick start, manual setup, and troubleshooting
Download for Windows:
yahboom-mcp-2.5.0-setup.exe— installer with webapp + embedded backend, one shortcut. The installer is unsigned: SmartScreen will warn — click More info > Run anyway. Claude Desktop users can instead install the MCP bundle (one-liner below).
Quick Start
Claude Desktop only (MCPB bundle):
irm https://github.com/sandraschi/yahboom-mcp/releases/latest/download/install.ps1 | iexEvery other client (Cursor, Windsurf, OpenCode, Claude Code) — stdio via uvx:
{"mcpServers": { "yahboom-mcp": { "command": "uvx", "args": ["--from", "git+https://github.com/sandraschi/yahboom-mcp", "yahboom-mcp", "--mode", "stdio"], "env": { "YAHBOOM_IP": "192.168.1.11" } } } }
Developers from source:
git clone https://github.com/sandraschi/yahboom-mcpcd yahboom-mcp just
This opens an interactive dashboard showing all available commands. Run just bootstrap to install dependencies, then just serve or just dev to start.
Manual Setup
If you don't have just installed:
Overview
Boomy is a Yahboom Raspbot v2 (Mecanum Version) robot car. Weighing in at approximately 1.0 kg and costing roughly $300 (fully loaded with a Raspberry Pi 5 16GB), it provides a unified platform for testing sensor integration, ROS 2 orchestration, and agentic (AI-driven) robotics. It's also great fun for kids of all ages.
The Manufacturer: Yahboom
Yahboom is a prominent player in the Chinese robotics and STEM education industry. They offer a diverse range of hardware platforms:
- Market Range: From entry-level $50 DIY kits to advanced $2,000+ STEM robots with precision mechanical arms.
- Industry Position: They specialize in accessible hardware for education and prototyping, positioned below enterprise-grade platforms such as Unitree or Noetix.
- Developer Ecosystem: Yahboom maintains a strong commitment to a FOSS (Free and Open Source Software) stack and provides active GitHub support for developers.
🏗️ Hardware Architecture
Boomy utilizes a "Double-Stack" controller model to bridge real-time physical reliability with high-level cognitive tasks:
- Rosmaster (ESP32 / Micro-ROS): Small-form-factor hardware controller for low-latency motor control, ultrasonic pinging, and line-sensor processing.
- Raspberry Pi 5 (Optional / Gateway): The main brain for standalone operation.
🚀 The "Zero-Host" Swarm Config
For scaled deployments, Boomy can operate in a Pi-less Swarm mode:
- Setup: Remove the Raspberry Pi; replace with a WiFi-to-Ethernet/UART bridge ($15).
- Control: Centralized orchestration via a remote Mothership (PC with RTX 4090).
- Scaling: Deploy 3+ units for the price of a single Pi-hosted robot.
🕹️ Interface Separation
This project clearly distinguishes between human-operable controls and machine-optimized interfaces:
- Human Interface: A browser-based Web Dashboard (React/Vite) designed for manual telemetry observation, peripheral control (lights, OLED), and human-robot interaction.
- Machine Interface: A standards-compliant MCP Server (Model Context Protocol) designed for AI agents and MCP clients to programmatic control Boomy as a tool within a larger fleet.
Fleet Crossconnects (Companions)
yahboom-mcp works completely standalone. You can optionally connect it with companion servers in the sandraschi fleet to unlock extended features:
| Companion Server | Feature Unlocked | Status | Setup |
|---|---|---|---|
speech-mcp | spoken-feedback, voice-synthesis | Optional | Install Guide |
reaper-mcp | audio-playback, soundboard-fx | Optional | Install Guide |
virtualdj-mcp | deck-control, music-playback | Optional | Install Guide |
Self-Contained Companions: Fleet companions operate independently. Installing companions does not trigger transitive dependency chains.
