Computer Use Omni MCP Server

I got tired of the permission limits in the computer use of Claude Code and Codex, so I built my own. Especially for us Windows users: there is no computer use at all in the Claude Code CLI here. I really resent that. Why are we Windows users always second class citizens in vibe coding?. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

People who work with automation, computer use and windows and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.

01 · Install Computer Use Omni

Claude Code

claude mcp add jason26214-computer-use-omni -- uvx computer-use-omni

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "jason26214-computer-use-omni": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "computer-use-omni"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

Using another client? Same JSON, different key

02 · Evidence

Security posture

What to check before giving this server access to your agent - from the registry, GitHub, and our own probes. We don't score safety; we show what's verifiable.

runs as local process (stdio) - runs on your machine with your user's permissions

license MIT - declared in the repository

pypi package computer-use-omni - check the name against the project README before installing (PyPI has no namespace ownership)

registry namespace io.github.Jason26214 is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner

03 · What Computer Use Omni can do

Prose above is summarized from the project's README and registry record - no invented capabilities.

What you can build

An agent gets 2 documented tools across deactivate, display, including deactivate, display_overview.

The 2 tools it gives your agent

Extracted from the project's README - what computer-use-omni lets an agent do.

deactivate: - end the session without killing the process (glow off, controlling window restored, grants revoked); the counterpart to request_access.
display_overview: - one composite, labeled image of all monitors laid out per the virtual-desktop arrangement (an orientation aid for "which screen is that window on?"; not a click
