Review any command before running it. Package names and URLs come from the server's own registry entry.

Package (pypi 0.1.1)

uvx deskwright

Or add to your MCP client config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "deskwright": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "deskwright"
      ],
      "env": {
        "DESKWRIGHT_SESSION": "<YOUR_VALUE>",
        "DESKWRIGHT_INPUT_BACKEND": "<YOUR_VALUE>"
      }
    }
  }
}

DESKWRIGHT_SESSION — Which desktop to drive: 'primary' (the screen you are looking at), 'headless' for an invisible virtual-monitor session, or 'headless:<name>' to pick one of several.
DESKWRIGHT_INPUT_BACKEND — Force the input path: 'mutter' for GNOME's org.gnome.Mutter.RemoteDesktop (no consent dialog), 'portal' for org.freedesktop.portal.RemoteDesktop (one consent, then persisted). Auto-selected when unset.

This server takes extra arguments — see its repository.
