A 1:1 replica of Claude Desktop's computer-use tool surface, for Windows and the Claude Code CLI.
Omni MCP server exists for a simple reason — assistants are far more useful when they can act on Omni directly instead of describing what you should do. A 1:1 replica of Claude Desktop's computer-use tool surface, for Windows and the Claude Code CLI.
A faithful 1:1 replica of Anthropic's official computer-use tool surface — shipped as a plain MCP server for Windows. It lets the Claude Code CLI (or any MCP client) drive the Windows desktop the way Claude Desktop's built-in computer-use does: screenshots, mouse / keyboard / scroll / drag / batch input, clipboard, multi-monitor, and application launch.
Installation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at fetch on PyPI and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.
Once Omni is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:
deactivate — end the session without killing the process (glow off, controlling window restored, grants revoked); the counterpart to request_accessdisplay_overview — one composite, labeled image of all monitors laid out per the virtual-desktop arrangement (an orientation aid for "which screen is that window on?"Among the developer tooling options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. Omni's toolset — deactivate, display_overview — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by Jason26214; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.

| display_overview | one composite, labeled image of all monitors laid out per the virtual-desktop arrangement (an orientation aid for "which screen is that window on?"; not a click surface). |
