SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

AI agents lack visibility into the Rust backend and the running WebView in Tauri apps. The MCP bridge provides live Rust-side debugging, screenshots, element inspection, and IPC control to enable end-to-end automation and debugging.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Live Rust-side visibility through crabnebula devtools (console, calls, config, and sources) to correlate frontend errors with backend causes.
  • MCP Bridge (20 tools) for visual inspection, interaction, IPC commands, event emission, and backend state across desktop and mobile targets.
  • Real-world workflows include debugging running apps, automating UI tasks, and multi-app orchestration via per-app WebSocket sessions.

Quick Start

Launch a development Tauri app with the MCP bridge enabled and begin using the 20 MCP tools to observe, control, and monitor a running Tauri v2 application.

FAQPage Schema
How do I give an AI agent real-time control over a running Tauri v2 app?

The MCP bridge provides live Rust-side visibility through CrabNebula devtools and a 20-tool MCP interface, allowing AI agents to correlate frontend errors with backend causes and control running applications.

What do I need to set up the MCP bridge for Tauri app debugging?

Setup requires installing the tauri-plugin-mcp-bridge Rust plugin in your Tauri app and running a Node.js MCP server on the AI client, alongside configuring withGlobalTauri and capabilities permissions.

Can I inspect and debug multi-window Tauri sessions with an AI agent?

Yes, you can inspect and debug multi-window Tauri sessions using per-app WebSocket sessions, which allow AI agents to orchestrate and monitor multiple running apps simultaneously across desktop and mobile targets.

Does the Tauri MCP bridge work with mobile targets?

Yes, the MCP bridge supports backend state monitoring, event emission, and IPC commands across both desktop and mobile targets, allowing AI agents to automate UI tasks on mobile Tauri v2 builds.

Why does my AI agent lack visibility into the Rust backend of my Tauri app?

AI agents lack visibility because Tauri separates the WebView and Rust backend; the MCP bridge resolves this by exposing live Rust-side devtools, console logs, and backend state to the agent.
