From the README

# ROS MCP Server 🧠⇄🤖

<p align="center">
  
</p>

ROS-MCP-Server connects large language models (such as Claude, GPT, and Gemini) with existing robots giving them bidirectional AI integration.  

With no changes to existing robot source code, this enables:
- 🗣 **Commanding the robot in natural language** → instructions are translated into ROS/ROS2 commands.  
- 👀 **Giving AI full visibility** → subscribe to topics, call services, read sensor data, and monitor robot state in real time.  

### ✅ Key Benefits  

- **No robot code changes** → only requires adding the `rosbridge` node.  
- **True two-way communication** → LLMs can both *control* robots and *observe* everything happening in ROS (sensors, topics, parameters).  
- **ROS1 & ROS2 support** → works with both versions out of the box.  
- **MCP-compatible** → integrates with any MCP-enabled LLM (Claude Desktop, Gemini, ChatGPT, and beyond).
