miosa-mcp 0.2.0

MCP server that exposes MIOSA computer-use tools to Claude Code

miosa-mcp

MCP (Model Context Protocol) bridge that exposes MIOSA cloud sandboxes & desktops to any MCP-aware client (Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI, etc.).

Two ways to run it

1. Hosted (recommended) — no install

MIOSA ships a public MCP endpoint at https://api.miosa.ai/api/v1/mcp. Point any MCP client at it with your msk_u_* API key as a Bearer token:

claude mcp add --transport http miosa \
  https://api.miosa.ai/api/v1/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer msk_u_your_key_here"

Full guide: docs/api/mcp-connect.md.

2. Local stdio (this Python package)

Install:

pip install miosa-mcp

Add to ~/.claude/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "miosa": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["-m", "miosa_mcp"],
      "env": {
        "MIOSA_API_KEY": "msk_u_your_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Use stdio when you need to wrap the MCP layer with custom local logic, or your client doesn't yet support remote MCP. Both modes hit the same MIOSA REST API under the hood.

Tools

Lifecycle

Tool	Description
computer_create(name, template_type?, size?)	Create a computer and start it. Becomes the active computer.
computer_list()	List all computers in your tenant.
computer_destroy(computer_id?)	Permanently destroy a computer.

Desktop — Visual

Tool	Description
computer_screenshot(computer_id?)	Capture a PNG screenshot. Claude can see and reason about it.
computer_get_screen_size(computer_id?)	Get screen resolution in pixels.
computer_get_cursor_position(computer_id?)	Get current cursor x/y.

Desktop — Pointer

Tool	Description
computer_click(x, y, button?, computer_id?)	Click at coordinates.
computer_double_click(x, y, computer_id?)	Double-click at coordinates.
computer_move_cursor(x, y, computer_id?)	Move cursor without clicking.
computer_drag(from_x, from_y, to_x, to_y, computer_id?)	Click-drag between positions.
computer_scroll(direction?, clicks?, x?, y?, computer_id?)	Scroll up/down/left/right.

Desktop — Keyboard

Tool	Description
computer_type(text, computer_id?)	Type text into the focused field.
computer_key(key, computer_id?)	Press a single key (Return, Tab, Escape, etc.).
computer_hotkey(keys, computer_id?)	Press a key combo (e.g. ["ctrl", "c"]).

Clipboard

Tool	Description
computer_get_clipboard(computer_id?)	Read clipboard text.
computer_set_clipboard(text, computer_id?)	Write clipboard text.

Window Management

Tool	Description
computer_windows(computer_id?)	List open windows with IDs, titles, positions.
computer_launch(app, computer_id?)	Launch an app by name (firefox, gedit, xterm…).

Shell & Files

Tool	Description
computer_bash(command, timeout?, computer_id?)	Run a bash command; returns stdout, stderr, exit_code.
computer_write_file(path, content, computer_id?)	Write a file inside the VM.
computer_read_file(path, computer_id?)	Read a file from inside the VM.

Active Computer

All tools accept an optional computer_id. When omitted, the server uses the most recently created or accessed computer automatically. This means you can computer_create once and omit the ID for the rest of the session.

Example session

> computer_create(name="my-dev-box")
Created computer 'my-dev-box' (id=comp_abc123, status=running). This is now the active computer.

> computer_screenshot()
[PNG image of the desktop appears in Claude's context]

> computer_bash(command="ls /home")
stdout:
ubuntu
exit_code: 0

> computer_launch(app="firefox")
Launched: firefox

> computer_screenshot()
[Firefox is now open]

> computer_click(x=640, y=50)
Clicked (640, 50) button=left

> computer_type(text="https://miosa.ai")
Typed: 'https://miosa.ai'

> computer_key(key="Return")
Pressed key: Return

Development

# Install deps (requires Python 3.10+)
pip install -e ".[dev]"

# Type-check
mypy miosa_mcp/

# Lint
ruff check miosa_mcp/

Architecture

The server is a single async Python process that:

1. Reads MIOSA_API_KEY from the environment
2. Initializes an AsyncMiosa client
3. Maintains an in-process cache of AsyncComputer objects
4. Serves MCP tools over stdio (the protocol Claude Code uses)
5. Maps every tool call to the corresponding MIOSA SDK method
6. Returns screenshots as base64-encoded PNG images (MCP ImageContent)

All desktop action tools (click, type, key, etc.) call the MIOSA platform API which proxies commands through to the running VM's envd daemon at port 49983.
