Computer Use
Gives Claude direct control over your computer through screen capture, mouse clicks, and keyboard input using the nut.js automation library. You can ask it to change desktop backgrounds, navigate websites, fill forms, or interact with any GUI application. Works across Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Cline with simple npx installation. The creator rightfully warns this is like giving a toddler your computer since models make mistakes and are vulnerable to prompt injection. Best used with small resolutions like 720p and the Rango browser extension for more reliable keyboard navigation over coordinate clicking.

Readme
computer-use-mcp
💻 A Model Context Protocol server for Claude to control your computer. This is very similar to computer use, but easy to set up and use locally.
Here's Claude Haiku 4.5 changing my desktop background (4x speed):

[!WARNING] At time of writing, models make frequent mistakes and are vulnerable to prompt injections. As this MCP server gives the model complete control of your computer, this could do a lot of damage. You should therefore treat this like giving a hyperactive toddler access to your computer - you probably want to supervise it closely, and consider only doing this in a sandboxed user account.
Installation
Follow the instructions on install-mcp, which generates the right config for your MCP client (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, VS Code, and more).
Tips
This should just work out of the box.
