📖 Documentation

[!NOTE] There is official MCP Server for Flutter from Flutter team which exposes Dart tooling.

The main goal of this project is to bring power of MCP server tools by creating them in Flutter app, using dynamic MCP tools registration . See how it works in short YouTube video. See Quick Start for more details. See original motivation behind the idea.

Also, secondary goal is to stabilize and polish tools which are useful in development (so it would be specifically targeted for AI Assistants, for example: it will return not only the errors, but prompt for AI how to work with that error) see more in MCP_RPC_DESCRIPTION.md

Please share your feedback, ideas and suggestions in issues!

Hope it will be useful for you,

Have a nice day!

Major Difference of this MCP server from official Dart MCP Server:

Dynamic Tools Registration: Flutter apps can now register custom tools at the MCP server. See how it works in short YouTube video. See Dynamic Tools Registration Docs for more details.

🎉 v2.6.0 released! 🎉

BREAKING CHANGES:

Dart SDK updated to 3.10.0 with all dependencies updated to the latest versions
now VM service auto-reconnect when Flutter app restarts. Huge thank you to @jkitching for PR! https://github.com/Arenukvern/mcp_flutter/pull/73
dockerfile for MCP Server - not tested. Huge thank you to @arslanmit for PR with Dockerfile! https://github.com/Arenukvern/mcp_flutter/pull/64

See more details in CHANGELOG.md.

⚠️ WARNING

Dump RPC methods (like dump_render_tree), may cause huge amount of tokens usage or overload context. Therefore now they are disabled by default, but can be enabled via --dumps flag.

See more details about command line options in mcp_server_dart README.

🚀 Getting Started

(Experimental) You can try to install MCP server and configure it using your AI Agent. Use the following prompt: Please install MCP server using this link: https://github.com/Arenukvern/mcp_flutter/blob/main/llm_install.md
with Cursor: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyDHaI81uts
with VSCode + Cline: use prompt Please install MCP server using this link: https://github.com/Arenukvern/mcp_flutter/blob/main/llm_install.md
Quick Start is available in QUICK_START.md
Configuration options are available in CONFIGURATION.md

🎯 AI Agent Tools

Core Flutter Tools

get_app_errors [Resource|Tool] - Retrieves precise and condensed error information from your Flutter app Usage:
- Uses only short description of the error. Should filter duplicate errors, to avoid flooding Agent context window with the same errors.
- Uses Error Monitor to capture Dart VM errors. All errors captured in Flutter app, and then available by request from MCP server.
Tested on: ✅ macOS, ✅ iOS Not tested on: 🚧 Android, 🤔 Windows, 🤔 Linux, ❌ Web See issue
view_screenshot [Resource|Tool] - Captures screenshots of the running application. Configuration:
- Enable with --images flag
- Will use PNG compression to optimize image size.
get_view_details [Resource|Tool] - size of screen, pixel ratio. May unlock ability for an Agent to use widget selection. Will return details about each view in the app.

Dynamic Tools Registration 🆕

Dynamic Registration Features:

Flutter apps can now register custom tools and resources at runtime. See how it works in short YouTube video. See Dynamic Tools Registration Docs for more details.

All tools default to using port 8181 if no port is specified. You can override this by providing a specific port number.

📚 Please see more in MCP_RPC_DESCRIPTION

🔒 Security

Generally, since you use MCP server to connect to Flutter app in Debug Mode, it should be safe to use. However, I still recommend to review how it works in ARCHITECTURE.md, how it can be modified to improve security if needed.

This MCP server is verified by MseeP.ai.

🔧 Troubleshooting

Connection Issues
- Ensure your Flutter app is running in debug mode
- Verify the port matches in both Flutter app and MCP server
- Check if the port is not being used by another process
AI Tool Not Detecting Inspector
- Restart the AI tool after configuration changes
- Verify the configuration JSON syntax
- Check the tool's logs for connection errors
Dynamic Tools Not Appearing
- Ensure mcp_toolkit package is properly initialized in your Flutter app
- Check that tools are registered using MCPToolkitBinding.instance.addEntries()
- Use listClientToolsAndResources to verify registration
- Hot reload your Flutter app after adding new tools

The Flutter MCP Server is registered with Smithery's registry, making it discoverable and usable by other AI tools through a standardized interface.
