FiveM MCP

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that lets AI agents - Claude, Qwen, or anything that speaks MCP - build, run and live-test FiveM servers from the same machine. Its 14 documented tools cover server, command, client, console. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

People who work with server, command and client and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.

01 · Install FiveM MCP

before you install - you'll need

Set FIVEM_RCON_PASSWORD, FIVEM_SERVER_LOG before connecting.

Claude Code

claude mcp add ziyacivan-fivem-mcp -- npx -y fivem-mcp-server

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ziyacivan-fivem-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "fivem-mcp-server"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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

Using another client? Same JSON, different key

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

repo age created 2026-09-02 - young repo, little track record yet

license MIT - declared in the repository

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

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

03 · What FiveM MCP can do

Capability map

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

Server

2 tools - e.g. getinfo over UDP - hostname, players, max clients, protocol, game build. No credentials needed.; Any server console command over UDP RCON; returns the captured output.

server_info · server_command

Client

2 tools - e.g. Types into the F8 console of a running Legacy client over devcon (nothing steals focus). This is the local console command layer - connect, quit, tooling; Regis; The newest CitizenFX_log_.log from the…

client_command · read_client_log

read & search

2 tools - e.g. Recent lines: client = live devcon stream (with afterSeq paging), server = tail of FIVEM_SERVER_LOG. Filter by channel/contains/pattern.; Every command the client console knows (devcon handshake).

read_console · list_commands

Wait

2 tools - e.g. Block until a line matching a regex appears - your assertion primitive.; Pause between actions (loading screens, walk cycles).

wait_for_console · wait

Launch

1 tool - e.g. Start FiveM, optionally straight into host:port (default: the configured server).

Quit

1 tool - e.g. Graceful quit over devcon; force kills the FiveM process tree.

quit_game

Window

1 tool - e.g. Game window existence, title, pid, rect, foreground state.

window_status

Screenshot

1 tool - e.g. PNG of the game window (PrintWindow, screen-BitBlt fallback). Downscaled - default 900, optional crop rect. Every shot costs transcript tokens all session: pref
