Overview

What is MCP Cobot Server?

MCP Cobot Server is a FastMCP server implementation for the M5 MyCobot280 collaborative robot. It implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to enable efficient context management and integration with myCobot robot systems.

How to use MCP Cobot Server?

Clone the repository, install dependencies with uv sync, and activate the virtual environment. Start a standalone server with uvx mcpo --port 8000 or install the MCP profile for Claude with mcp install server.py. Debug locally with mcp dev server.py.

FAQ from MCP Cobot Server

What robot does the server support?

It supports the Elephant Robotics myCobot 280 M5Stack, a 6-DOF collaborative robot.

What are the joint angle ranges?

Joint 1: -168° to 168°, Joint 2: -135° to 135°, Joint 3: -150° to 150°, Joint 4: -145° to 145°, Joint 5: -165° to 165°, Joint 6: -180° to 180°.

What functions are available?

Eight functions: get_angles, move_angle, move_angles, go_home, set_home, change_color, relax, and interpretive_dance_routine.

What are the system requirements?

Python 3.8+ and the FastMCP library. The project uses uv for dependency and virtual environment management.

How do I start the server?

Run uvx mcpo --port 8000 -- uv run --with mcp[cli] --with pymycobot mcp run ./server.py for a standalone server, or use mcp install server.py to add it to Claude. For development, use mcp dev server.py.
