What AppReveal does

Debug-only in-app MCP server for iOS/macOS/Android/Flutter/ReactNative. Gives LLM agents Playwright-like control over native apps — UI, state, navigation, and diagnostics over the local network.

Debug-only in-app MCP server for iOS, macOS, Android, Flutter, and React Native. Lets LLM agents discover, inspect, and control native apps over the local network -- like Playwright for native, but with direct access to app state, navigation, network traffic, DOM, and diagnostics.

How it works

Your App (debug build)                    External Agent
 +-- AppReveal framework                   +-- mDNS browse for _appreveal._tcp
      +-- MCP Server (Streamable HTTP)  <---+-- MCP client (curl, SDK, Claude, etc.)
      +-- mDNS advertisement               +-- LLM orchestration
      +-- Screen/element/state bridges
      +-- WebView DOM bridge
  1. App calls AppReveal.start() in a debug build
  2. Framework starts an HTTP server on a dynamic port
  3. mDNS advertises the service as _appreveal._tcp on the LAN
  4. Agent discovers the service, connects, and calls MCP tools

AppReveal shares the same core MCP surface across platforms. macOS adds desktop-specific window and menu tools on top of the shared native and web view tools.
