Msc FAQs

Question 1

What is Msc and its primary function?

Accepted Answer

Msc (Multi-Screencap Control) is an MCP server designed to enable clients to remotely interact with connected Android devices. Its primary functions include screen capturing, retrieving detailed device information, and installing utilities via the MCP protocol.

Question 2

How does Msc facilitate interaction with Android devices?

Accepted Answer

Msc acts as a local MCP server. When configured in an MCP-compatible client (e.g., Claude desktop), it allows the client to directly invoke tools like `list_devices` or `capture_screenshot` to control your Android devices through the ADB connection.

Question 3

What types of screen capture methods does Msc support?

Accepted Answer

Msc supports multiple screenshot methods: `adb` (default), `droidcast` for high-quality mirroring, `minicap`, and `mumu`. Captured images are returned as PNG files to the MCP client.

Question 4

What are the main requirements to run Msc?

Accepted Answer

To run Msc, you need Python 3.10 or newer, ADB installed and accessible in your system's PATH, and `uv` (or `uvx`) for managing dependencies and running the server. Internet access to GitHub is also needed for initial setup.

Question 5

Can I install applications on my Android device using Msc?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Msc includes the capability to install specific utilities. For instance, it can install DroidCast on your designated Android device to enhance screen mirroring and capture quality for subsequent operations.
