# ROS MCP Server 🧠⇄🤖 <p align="center"> </p> 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** → just add the `rosbridge` node to your existing ROS setup. - **True two-way communication** → LLMs can both *control* robots and *observe* everything happening on the Robot. - **Full context** → publish & subscribe to topics, call services & actions, set parameters, read sensor data, and monitor robot state in real time. - **Deep ROS understanding** → guides the LLM to discover available topics, services, actions, and their types (including custom ones) — enabling it to use them with the right syntax without manual configuration. - **Works with any MCP client** → built on the open [MCP standard](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/), supporting Claude Code, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, CursorRead full README on GitHub →
