Installation
Prerequisites
- Bun >= 1.3.11
- Windows 10/11
Install via npm
npm install -g windows-computer-use-mcp
Install via npx (no install needed)
npx windows-computer-use-mcp
Build from source
git clone https://github.com/hiphopanda/windows-computer-use-mcp.git
cd windows-computer-use-mcp
bun install
bun run build
Configuration
Add to your MCP client settings (e.g. Claude Desktop):
{
"mcpServers": {
"computer-use": {
"type": "stdio",
"command": "npx",
"args": ["windows-computer-use-mcp"]
}
}
}
Or if installed globally:
{
"mcpServers": {
"computer-use": {
"type": "stdio",
"command": "windows-computer-use-mcp"

Development
bun install # Install dependencies
bun run dev # Run in development mode
bun run build # Build to dist/
bun run start # Run built version
Architecture
- Runtime: Bun + TypeScript
- Transport: stdio (MCP protocol)
- Platform Layer: All desktop operations go through PowerShell scripts executed via
Bun.spawn - Low-level Input: Uses Win32 P/Invoke (
user32.dll) loaded at runtime — no precompiled native modules needed
