What is myCobot MCP?
The myCobot MCP is a server application designed to control the myCobot robotic arm for pick-and-place tasks. It leverages the DDS API for object detection and requires an MCP client capable of handling image feedback.
How to use myCobot MCP?
- Register and obtain a DDS API token. 2. Configure the
claude_desktop_config.jsonfile with the server command and API token (if running on Ubuntu with Claude-Desktop). 3. Clone the repository. 4. Configure hardware by ensuring you have a myCobot, suction pump, and camera flange. 5. Create asettings.jsonfile to define camera and myCobot parameters. 6. Change port permissions for the myCobot serial connection.

What hardware is required to run this server?
What hardware is required to run this server?
The required hardware includes a myCobot robotic arm, a suction pump, and a camera flange.
How do I configure the myCobot hardware?
How do I configure the myCobot hardware?
You need to create a settings.json file that defines the camera ID, camera parameters, myCobot port, baud rate, and other hardware-specific settings.
What is Claude-Desktop and is it required?
What is Claude-Desktop and is it required?
Claude-Desktop is an application that can be used to run this project on Ubuntu, but it is not strictly required. It provides a convenient way to manage and configure the server.
How do I change the port permission for myCobot?
How do I change the port permission for myCobot?
You can use the command sudo chmod 666 /dev/ttyACM0 to change the port permission, replacing /dev/ttyACM0 with the correct port if necessary.
