Local MCP tools for agentic AI

Give any AI hands.

A free, open-source, Windows-native MCP server. Browser control, native desktop automation, vision, and OCR - so the model can operate the interface and verify what actually happened. Bring your own AI.

Install AI-Hands See how it routes

Works with Claude Code, Codex, Grok Build - anything that speaks stdio MCP. Signed installer.

Route by reality

Some work has an endpoint. The rest has buttons.

Use a documented or authorized API when one exists. When the work still lives behind a screen, AI-Hands gives the model a way to operate the interface - and then check the real outcome before it says "done."

01User intent

Describe the result you want, in plain language.

→
02A - APIAuthorized API

When a documented or permitted endpoint is available.

02B - UIUser interface

When the task lives on the screen.

→
03Verify

Check the real outcome on screen before reporting success.

No account setup, no bypassed authentication, no undisclosed private endpoints. AI-Hands does not grant permission - use only interfaces and APIs you are authorized to access.

Capability layers

The right surface for the screen.

AI-Hands is an MCP capability surface. Your chosen compatible client supplies the model; AI-Hands supplies the routes into the browser, Windows, and the visible screen.

01 / BROWSER

Read the page structure.

Navigate pages and work with tabs, forms, downloads, and semantic controls.

02 / WINDOWS

Reach native controls.

Use apps, menus, dialogs, and Windows interface elements outside the browser.

03 / VISION

Look when structure stops.

Screenshots and visual analysis for interfaces with no useful semantic route.

04 / VERIFY

Check before "done."

Inspect visible state and screenshots before the model reports the result happened.

How it works

A thin layer between intent and interface.

Three steps from install to a verified result.

01 CONNECT

Add AI-Hands

Add AI-Hands to a compatible MCP client on Windows. One signed installer.

02 ASK

Describe the result

Say what you want done, in plain language - no scripts, no selectors.

03 ACT + CHECK

Operate and verify

The model uses the available interface route, completes the task, and inspects the outcome.

Lineage

An AI built the tool that built everything else.

AI-Hands wasn't written the usual way. The first thing built was a coding server - the contractor. That contractor built the next tool, and the next. By the time AI-Hands existed, the toolchain was building itself: an AI, given hands, extending its own reach one server at a time.

What came from a solo founder with no programming background was the intent. What came from the tools was the execution - repo after repo, signed release after signed release, the hands doing the work once they existed.

[[STORY PLACEHOLDER - Joseph to confirm the real detail: last December, hands set up a Christmas song for the family. This is a staged draft; the true anecdote goes here, verbatim, before publish. Not written from memory - awaiting the sourced detail.]]
