Serial MCP Server
serial-mcp-server provides serial port access for AI workflows in two forms:
- MCP stdio server for clients that support MCP tools.
- Scriptable CLI for direct use, CI, and agent skills without MCP setup.
Current release target: 0.3.0.
Language versions: English | Chinese
0.3.0 Update Brief
- Added JSON Macro DSL automation for repeatable serial procedures.
- Added CLI macro commands:
macro validate,macro list,macro plan, andmacro run. - Added MCP macro tools for runtime in-memory pack load/list/unload, plan, and run.
- Added explicit no-hardware simulation for macro validation, planning, and executor smoke tests.
- Kept Quick out of the public API. Quick-style use cases should be represented as macros.
Macro Automation
Use macros when a serial workflow is more than a single read or write. Many devices require a timed sequence: send a command, wait a few milliseconds, read until a prompt or acknowledgement appears, then send the next command. A macro pack records that procedure as JSON so a human, CLI script, or AI agent can validate it, inspect the plan, simulate it without hardware, and run it against a real port when a device is attached.
