QuickDesk

What it does: QuickDesk is an open-source remote desktop application with a built-in MCP server that lets AI agents see and control remote computers.
AI control: Its MCP tools include screenshots, mouse and keyboard control, clipboard actions, OCR, and UI element detection.
AI integrations: The README says its MCP server works with Cursor, Claude Desktop, VS Code, and any MCP client.
MCP transports: The server supports stdio and HTTP/SSE transports, with HTTP/SSE allowing multiple AI clients to connect.
Remote desktop features: Remote control includes keyboard and mouse mapping, cursor synchronization, bidirectional clipboard sync, adaptive frame rate and bitrate, and performance statistics.
Connection security: Devices connect using a 9-digit Device ID and temporary access code, which can be configured to refresh from every 30 minutes to 24 hours or never.
Self-hosting: Users can deploy their own signaling and TURN servers; the documented signaling server stack uses Go, PostgreSQL, and Redis, with coturn for relay.
Admin security: The self-hosted web admin panel lists TOTP two-factor authentication, operation audit logs, and CIDR-based IP whitelisting.
Privacy mode: On Windows 10 version 2004 or later, privacy screen mode blacks out the host display and blocks local keyboard and mouse input during remote control.
License: QuickDesk's own code is licensed under MIT and is free for commercial use; the bundled quickdesk-remoting component is licensed under BSD 3-Clause.
Available downloads: The README lists a Windows x64 installer and a macOS ARM64 disk image.
Linux and mobile: The README describes Linux support and iOS/Android clients as roadmap items.
Windows installer requirement: The README says administrator rights are required to install the Windows package.
Price from: Free
