Aiterm MCP

This image represents different intelligences sharing one persistent workspace and advancing the same work from their own perspectives. Its 11 documented tools cover pty, agent, claude. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

People connecting browser automation tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in JavaScript.

01 · Install Aiterm MCP

before you install - you'll need

The README does not document required environment variables for a basic install.

Claude Code

claude mcp add kitepon-rgb-aiterm-mcp -- npx -y aiterm-mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kitepon-rgb-aiterm-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "aiterm-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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

npm package aiterm-mcp - unscoped; check the name against the project README before installing

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

03 · What Aiterm MCP can do

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

What you can build

With this server connected, an agent can send text, read output, token-reduced (incremental by default), send a control key, and close idempotently.

Capability map

Tools grouped from the project's README - what Aiterm MCP lets an agent do.

Pty

6 tools - e.g. Grab one terminal, return a session_id; Send text; on an agent session this is a non-blocking dispatch returning an event_cursor; Read output, token-reduced (incremental by default)

pty_open · pty_send · pty_read · pty_key · pty_close · pty_list

Agent

2 tools - e.g. Canonical agent launch; harness and model are independent; Change model/effort in a running Claude, Codex, Grok, Composer, or Cursor session without restarting it

agent_launch · agent_configure

Claude

2 tools - e.g. Issue (dispatch-only) or recover one correlated Claude operation; Inspect or answer the current correlated Claude approval prompt

claude_turn · claude_approval

Diagnostics

1 tool - e.g. Read-only factory readiness as machine-readable JSON
