Dittu MCP Server

Turns a phone into a camera+Bluetooth remote so AI assistants can see and control any PC. That is what the dittu mcp server brings to an AI assistant: the same capability, reachable through the Model Context Protocol rather than a separate app or dashboard.

The short version

Dittu turns a phone into the eyes and hands of an AI assistant. Stand the phone on a tripod facing a monitor — the camera reads the screen, Bluetooth pairs as a real mouse and keyboard. No software to install on the target computer, no remote-desktop setup.

Getting it running

Setup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client.

The tools it exposes

The server publishes 8 tools. What each one is for:

• take_screenshot — Captures what the phone's camera currently sees on the monitor
• take_screenshot_with_grid — Same as take_screenshot but overlays a coordinate grid
• get_raw_screenshot — Unprocessed camera frame, no corner-mapping applied
• scroll — Scrolls the screen in a given direction
• key — Sends a keyboard key or shortcut
• type_text — Types a string of text via the Bluetooth keyboard
• get_corners — Reads the current four-corner monitor calibration
• set_corners — Sets the four-corner monitor calibration

Things to watch

• It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
• Keep per-call confirmation enabled while you learn its behaviour; it is the cheapest safeguard you have.

How it compares

This sits in the developer tooling group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. Dittu's toolset — take_screenshot, take_screenshot_with_grid, get_raw_screenshot and 5 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by BorisGujvin; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.
