ROS MCP Server ๐ง โ๐ค
ROS-MCP-Server connects large language models (such as Claude, GPT, and Gemini) to robots, enabling bidirectional communication with no changes to existing robot source code.
Why ROS-MCP?
- No robot source code changes โ just add the
rosbridgenode to your existing ROS setup. - True two-way communication โ LLMs can both control robots and observe everything happening on the Robot.
- Full context โ publish & subscribe to topics, call services & actions, set parameters, read sensor data, and monitor robot state in real time.
- Deep ROS understanding โ guides the LLM to discover available topics, services, actions, and their types (including custom ones) โ enabling it to use them with the right syntax without manual configuration.
- Works with any MCP client โ built on the open MCP standard, supporting Claude Code, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more.
- Works across ROS versions โ compatible across ROS 2 (Jazzy, Humble, and others) and ROS 1 distros.
