Scrcpy MCP Overview
The scrcpy-mcp MCP server connects AI assistants to Android devices through ADB and the optional scrcpy control protocol. It exposes tools for screenshots, touch and text input, device inspection, app lifecycle management, screen recording, video streaming, and UI hierarchy queries. With an active scrcpy session, screenshots and input use a faster path; without one, supported interactions fall back to ADB. Use it for Android testing, guided device automation, or inspecting and operating an app through an MCP-compatible client.
Primary Use Cases for Scrcpy MCP:
- Automate Android app interactions with taps, swipes, and text input
- Inspect a device screen and UI hierarchy during testing
- Launch, stop, install, or uninstall Android applications
- Capture screenshots and screen recordings from a connected device
