Frequently Asked Questions

What is Windows MCP?

An MCP Server for computer-use in Windows OS

What tools does Windows MCP provide?

Windows MCP provides 17 tools including Click, Type, Scroll, Move. Each tool can be called by AI agents to perform specific operations.

Is Windows MCP safe to use?

We cannot tell you that, and nobody scanning at this scale can. What we did in March 2026 was shallow-clone Windows MCP and run five keyword searches over its source: auth identifiers, CORS configuration, rate-limit identifiers, the dependency manifest against a hardcoded list of 18 known-vulnerable packages, and unguarded eval/exec calls. At least one matched — the specific finding is in the scan report on this page. A text search cannot follow a variable, judge intent, or tell you what a server does once it is running, so "nothing matched" is not "safe". What the scan does and does not cover is written out at /mcp/security.

What are alternatives to Windows MCP?

Similar MCP servers include FastMCP, Oh My Posh Validator, Claude Flow. Each serves a similar purpose but may differ in features, language, and compatibility.
