What is the Onsense MCP Server?

Android phone camera, sensors & files for any MCP client — local, no cloud, no ADB.

What it actually does

On a clean PC, uvx doesn't exist yet and the command below will fail with "'uvx' is not recognized". The easiest fix: install the onSense app first, tap "Start PC setup helper", and open the shown address on your PC. It gives you a one-line command that installs uv, pairs, and registers the MCP server in one go — and because the PC connects out to the phone, it also sidesteps the Windows firewall entirely.
