MisterClaw FAQs

Question 1

How does MisterClaw enable AI agents to control my MiSTer?

Accepted Answer

MisterClaw uses the Model Context Protocol (MCP) standard, allowing direct integration with MCP-compatible AI clients. It also provides a robust CLI client for agents with shell access or for automation scripts, communicating with the MiSTer server via the ClawExec protocol.

Question 2

How can I ensure secure remote access to my MiSTer with MisterClaw?

Accepted Answer

MisterClaw strongly recommends using Tailscale VPN for encrypted and authenticated remote access from anywhere. It is crucial to never expose port 9900 (ClawExec protocol) directly to the internet through port forwarding, as it lacks inherent authentication.

Question 3

What specific functions can I perform on my MiSTer using MisterClaw?

Accepted Answer

You can remotely launch games, search ROM libraries, list available systems, manage core settings and DIP switches, navigate OSD menus, capture screenshots, access detailed system information, and control Tailscale VPN settings for secure remote access.

Question 4

What is MisterClaw?

Accepted Answer

MisterClaw is the first Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for MiSTer-FPGA, enabling AI agents like ChatGPT, Claude, and custom scripts to remotely control your MiSTer over the network, streamlining your retro gaming experience.

Question 5

How do I install MisterClaw on my MiSTer-FPGA?

Accepted Answer

Copy the `misterclaw` server binary to `/media/fat/Scripts/` on your MiSTer (e.g., via SCP). Then, SSH into your MiSTer and run `/media/fat/Scripts/misterclaw --install`. This command configures autostart on boot and simplifies setup. Client binaries (`misterclaw-send`, `misterclaw-mcp`) run on your local machine.
