Common questions

Is WpfPilot 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 (0.1.1) reached the registry 5 months 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.

WpfPilot MCP

WpfPilot MCP is a local Model Context Protocol server for Windows WPF applications. It lets AI coding agents inspect UI Automation trees, click and type through semantic selectors, diagnose WPF-specific issues, record workflows, and generate xUnit + FlaUI tests.

Features

Attach to or launch WPF processes.
Capture semantic UI snapshots (selectors, not screen coordinates).
Query text, value, state, bounds, patterns, children, ancestors, siblings, and selection.
Act with verbs such as click, set value, select, toggle, expand, collapse, scroll, and drag/drop.
Wait and assert on UI state with structured errors.
Capture screenshots.
Record workflows and generate test code.
Optional in-process probe for ViewModel, binding, command, validation, and dispatcher diagnostics.

Requirements

Windows 10/11.
A WPF application to automate.
Node.js 18+ if using npx (recommended). No .NET SDK required for the release binary or npm launcher.

Getting started

Add this to your MCP client configuration (global or project-scoped):

"mcpServers": { "wpfpilot-mcp": { "type": "stdio", "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@skuzadev/wpfpilot-mcp"] } } }

Or run directly (stdio; waits for an MCP client):

npx -y @skuzadev/wpfpilot-mcp

The npm launcher downloads the latest Windows release binary on first run, then proxies stdio to it.

Other installs (persistent wpfpilot-mcp command, release zip, uninstall): see Install WpfPilot.

Popular clients

Use the standard config above unless noted. More clients: docs/all-clients.md.

Cursor

Global: ~/.cursor/mcp.json (do not add a project .cursor/mcp.json unless you need a repo-specific override)

"mcpServers": { "wpfpilot-mcp": { "type": "stdio", "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@skuzadev/wpfpilot-mcp"] } } }

Or: Cursor Settings → MCP → Add new MCP Server — command npx, args -y @skuzadev/wpfpilot-mcp.

cursor-agent mcp list

cursor-agent mcp list-tools wpfpilot-mcp

Codex

codex mcp add wpfpilot-mcp -- npx -y @skuzadev/wpfpilot-mcp

codex mcp list

Or ~/.codex/config.toml:

[mcp_servers.wpfpilot-mcp]

command = "npx" args = ["-y", "@skuzadev/wpfpilot-mcp"] enabled = true startup_timeout_sec = 30 tool_timeout_sec = 60

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport stdio wpfpilot-mcp -- npx -y @skuzadev/wpfpilot-mcp

claude mcp list

Project .mcp.json:

"mcpServers": { "wpfpilot-mcp": { "type": "stdio", "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@skuzadev/wpfpilot-mcp"] } } }

Claude Desktop

Windows config: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

"mcpServers": { "wpfpilot-mcp": { "type": "stdio", "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@skuzadev/wpfpilot-mcp"] } } }

Restart Claude Desktop after saving.

VS Code

Create .vscode/mcp.json:

"servers": { "wpfpilot-mcp": { "type": "stdio", "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@skuzadev/wpfpilot-mcp"] } } }

Or: code --add-mcp '{"name":"wpfpilot-mcp","command":"npx","args":["-y","@skuzadev/wpfpilot-mcp"]}'

First prompt

After connecting the MCP client, ask:

List the WpfPilot tools and attach to my running WPF application.

Useful follow-up prompts:

Show the main window UI tree.

Click the Save button using a selector, not coordinates. Wait until the status text says Saved. Why is the Submit button disabled? Record this workflow and generate an xUnit test.

Tools

Tool	Purpose
`wpf_capabilities`	List supported verbs, query kinds, and wait conditions.
`wpf_query`	Read UI state.
`wpf_act`	Perform UI actions.
`wpf_wait`	Wait for UI state.
`wpf_assert`	Verify UI state.

Full tool list: docs/tools-reference.md.

Optional WPF probe

The probe runs inside your WPF process and exposes diagnostics that UI Automation cannot see directly (bindings, ViewModels, commands, validation).

Use wpf_probe_connect, then inspect my ViewModel and binding errors.

Setup: docs/probe-setup.md.

Safety

WpfPilot is intended for local development and test automation.

It runs as your user account and can interact with UI visible to that account.
It does not expose general shell, registry, or arbitrary filesystem tools through MCP.
Mutating UI actions are audited under the user's local app data folder.
The probe requires explicit installation in the target WPF app.
Treat every MCP server as trusted local code before enabling it in an agent.

Troubleshooting

wpfpilot-mcp is not recognized

Restart your terminal after running the installer, or use the full path to wpfpilot-mcp.exe in your MCP client configuration. See all-clients.md.

Server starts but no tools appear

Restart the MCP client and check its MCP logs. Also verify npx -y @skuzadev/wpfpilot-mcp runs from a normal terminal.

Cannot attach to an app

Make sure the WPF app is running in the same user session and at a compatible privilege level. If the app runs as administrator, the MCP client may also need to run elevated.

Probe cannot connect

Confirm the target app called ProbeHost.Start(), then use wpf_probe_status and wpf_probe_connect. If needed, pass wpfpilot-mcp-probe-{ProcessId} explicitly.
