👾🦀 MiSTerClaw — MCP Remote Control for MiSTer-FPGA
MiSTerClaw is the first MCP server for MiSTer-FPGA. Control your MiSTer from any AI agent.
What is this?
MiSTerClaw lets AI agents — Claude, ChatGPT, OpenClaw, Hermes, Cursor, and others — control a MiSTer-FPGA over the network. Launch games, search your ROM library, take screenshots, read and modify core settings and DIP switches, navigate the OSD menu using conf_str-based position calculation (experimental, not yet reliable for all cores), query detailed system information, manage the system, and even set up Tailscale VPN for secure remote access from anywhere. Floppy-disk cores (PC8801, MSX, etc.) support PostLaunch auto-reset for seamless game loading. It uses the Model Context Protocol (MCP) standard, so any MCP-compatible client works out of the box. For agents without MCP support, a CLI client is also included.
