MCP - Multi-Platform Hardware Information Collection Tool

MCP is a cross-platform tool for collecting comprehensive hardware and system information, including CPU, GPU, memory, disk, operating system, and network configuration details.

Features

• Cross-platform support: Works on Windows, macOS, and Linux
• Comprehensive information collection:
  • CPU: Brand, physical cores, logical cores, frequency, architecture
  • GPU: Model, driver version, memory size (platform-specific implementation)
  • Memory: Total, available, used, usage percentage
  • Disk: Device, mount point, file system type, total space, used space, free space, usage percentage
  • Operating System: Type, release, version, hostname
  • Network: Interface names and IP addresses
• Error handling: Gracefully handles exceptions and returns error messages when information collection fails
• Structured data output: Returns information in structured dictionary format, easily convertible to JSON

Installation

You can install MCP using pip:

pip install mcp-hardware-info

Usage

Command Line

After installation, you can use the mcp command to get hardware information:

mcp

This will output all hardware information in JSON format.

Python API

You can also use MCP as a Python library:

from mcp.server import get_all_hardware_info, get_cpu_info, get_gpu_info, get_memory_info, get_disk_info, get_os_info, get_network_info

# Get all hardware information
hardware_info = get_all_hardware_info()
print(hardware_info)

# Get specific hardware information
cpu_info = get_cpu_info()
gpu_info = get_gpu_info()
memory_info = get_memory_info()
disk_info = get_disk_info()
os_info = get_os_info()
network_info = get_network_info()
