streamdeck_read_profiles
Lists desktop profiles, device metadata, page directories, and active profile roots from `ProfilesV3` or `ProfilesV2`.
streamdeck_read_page
Reads a page manifest and returns simplified button details plus raw native action objects.
Ready-to-Paste Client Configurations
Paste either (or both) of these JSON server blocks into your client config file (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json).
Puter MCP is categorized under Developer Tools and uses a remote streaming HTTP/SSE transport. In contrast, Streamdeck MCP belongs to Developer Tools using local stdio subprocess. Select Puter MCP when you need capabilities focused on developer tools and Streamdeck MCP when you require tools for developer tools.
