QuickDesk
An open-source remote desktop app for Windows and macOS that connects MCP-compatible AI agents to remote computers. MIT licensed.
QuickDesk is a remote desktop app with a built-in MCP server that lets AI agents operate other computers. It suits developers and administrators who want to automate desktop tasks across machines while watching the agent's actions and intervening when needed. It's open source under the MIT license.
The desktop app runs on Windows and macOS, with downloads for Windows x64 and Apple Silicon Macs. You can self-host its signaling and relay services, including the signaling server in Docker. Remote sessions prefer direct peer-to-peer connections through WebRTC and use a TURN relay when a direct connection fails.
QuickDesk works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code and other MCP clients. Agents can capture screenshots, click, type, drag and use the clipboard. OCR and interface detection help them find text and controls on screen. They can control several remote computers at once or run automation in the background; remote tools also cover system information, file operations and shell commands, with support for custom skills.
Its remote desktop core builds on Chromium Remoting, the technology behind Chrome Remote Desktop. GPU rendering and adaptive video quality support interactive sessions, while clipboard sync works in both directions. On supported Windows systems, privacy mode blanks the physical display and blocks local input. Virtual displays support extra monitors and access to machines without a physical screen.
