Yamaru Hardware Probe gives Claude Desktop and other MCP clients real visibility into your machine. 10 expert tools: full hardware inventory, real-time performance & thermal monitoring, RAM pressure analysis, SMART storage health, antivirus impact diagnostics, and LLM compatibility checks (VRAM fit, quantization prediction). Perfect for AI engineers, developers,vibe coder, gamers, and creators who want grounded answers instead of "it depends on your config". Apache 2.0, privacy-first (auto-anonymization), npm-installable.
Overview

Yamaru Hardware Probe

Give Claude (and any MCP client) real eyes on your machine.

Yamaru Hardware Probe is an open-source MCP server that exposes 10 expert diagnostic tools to your LLM client — so you finally get grounded answers instead of "it depends on your configuration".

Why this exists

LLMs are great at reasoning, but blind to the box they run on. Ask Claude "can my PC run Llama 3 70B in Q4_K_M?" and you'll get a generic answer. With this MCP server, Claude reads your actual CPU, RAM, VRAM, thermals, and storage health — then gives you a real, chiffré answer.

Features

  • 🔍 Deep Hardware Inventory — CPU, RAM slots, GPU/VRAM, motherboard, OS topology
  • Real-time Performance — live CPU/memory load + top processes by RSS
  • 🧊 Thermal & Power Diagnostics — detects throttling, fan RPM, frequency clipping
  • 💾 SMART Storage Health — per-disk temperature, wear level, I/O bottlenecks
  • 🛡️ Antivirus / EDR Impact — detects exclusion gaps on dev hot paths
  • 🤖 LLM Compatibility (BETA) — predicts quantization fit and VRAM requirements
  • 📊 Time-bound monitoring — min/max/avg health reports over a duration
  • 🔒 Privacy-first — automatic anonymization of unique hardware IDs before any remote call

Quick Install

Add this to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "yamaru-probe": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@yamaru-eu/hardware-probe"]
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop. Done.

Bring your real authenticated browser session to AI coding agents. Local-first MCP server + Chrome MV3 extension. No cloud. No telemetry.
@Cubenest

peek records the user's actual logged-in browser (DOM via rrweb, console events, network metadata, optional response bodies via opt-in Deep capture) through a Chrome MV3 extension. The extension ships events through a native-messaging stdio bridge to a local MCP server (peek-mcp), which persists them to a SQLite database at ~/.peek/sessions.db. AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, Windsurf) read sessions from the database via 10 MCP tools: Tool What it does list_recent_sessions List recently recorded sessions (id, origin, ts, event count). get_session_summary LLM-readable narrative summary of a session. get_session_console_errors Console errors recorded in a session. get_session_network_errors Failed/notable network requests in a session. get_user_action_before_error Last N user actions before a console error. generate_playwright_repro Generate a runnable Playwright test from a session. get_dom_snapshot Reconstruct the DOM at a given timestamp. query_dom_history Timeline of attribute/text changes for a selector. request_authorization Side-panel consent for write actions (Level 3). execute_action Dispatch a UI action (gated by permission level + destructive blocklist). Why local-first matters Every other "browser session for AI" tool ships to a vendor cloud. peek's SQLite + extension live on the user's machine — no remote endpoints, no telemetry. The privacy policy (docs/peek/PRIVACY_POLICY.md) is the source of truth. Install # 1. Add the MCP server to Claude Code claude mcp add peek -- npx -y @peekdev/mcp # 2. Install the Chrome extension from the Chrome Web Store # (link added once the CWS listing is approved)
