GNOME UI MCP

Overview

GNOME UI MCP is a Model Context Protocol server that automates GNOME Wayland desktops through AT-SPI discovery and Mutter input control. It lets AI assistants interact with your desktop environment as callable tools, streamlining workflows that would otherwise require manual switching between applications.

The server runs locally via Docker using the image ghcr.io/asattelmaier/gnome-ui-mcp:0.5.0 and requires no authentication to get started. Version 0.5.0 is available under the MIT license, with full source code at asattelmaier/gnome-ui-mcp on GitHub.

GNOME UI MCP belongs in the AI & Agents category on mcp.site and works with any MCP client including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and Zed. If you maintain this project, claim your listing to earn the Verified badge and keep information up to date.
