FreezeText MCP Server
OCR anything on your Mac screen from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client.
This is the official Model Context Protocol server for FreezeText — a free native macOS app that freezes the screen and extracts text via Apple Vision OCR. Whether running videos, disappearing popups, protected PDFs, or hover tooltips — FreezeText makes any visible text copyable.
You need the FreezeText app installed and running with its HTTP API enabled (Settings → API). This MCP server talks to the app's local API. Get FreezeText (free) at store.juergenkoller.software/apps/freezetext.
What you can do
"Claude, OCR whatever is on my screen right now and summarize it."
"Cursor, run OCR on this screenshot (base64) and extract the invoice number."
"Search my FreezeText history for everything containing 'tracking number'."
The MCP server exposes 12 tools:
| Category | Tools |

| History | list_history, search_history, get_history_entry, add_history, delete_history_entry, clear_history, export_history (JSON/CSV) |
