Setting up with Highlight

This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:

  1. Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
  2. Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
  3. Configure the plugin with the settings below
    Plugin Name MCP Appium Gestures
    Command (node, npx, python, etc.)

    Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.

  4. Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches

npm install

To use this MCP server with Claude, you need to add it to your MCP settings configuration file. The location of this file depends on your platform:

- For Cursor: /Users/[username]/Library/Application Support/Cursor/User/globalStorage/saoudrizwan.claude-dev/settings/cline_mcp_settings.json
- For Claude Desktop: /Users/[username]/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
- For Cline or other MCP clients: Check your client's documentation for the configuration file location

Add the following configuration to the mcpServers object in the settings file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "appium-gestures": {
      "command": "npx",
      "disabled": false,
      "args": ["mcp-appium-gestures"],
      "autoApprove": [],
      "timeout": 300,
      "transportType": "stdio"
    }
  }
}

Once configured, you can use the MCP server's tools and resources directly in Claude:

<use_mcp_tool>
<server_name>appium-gestures</server_name>
<tool_name>generate-tap-code</tool_name>
<arguments>
{
  "language": "javascript",
  "useElement": true,
  "elementId": "login-button"
}
</arguments>
</use_mcp_tool>

Or access resources:

<access_mcp_resource>
<server_name>appium-gestures</server_name>
<uri>gesture://tap</uri>
</access_mcp_resource>

The server provides the following tools to generate code for Appium gestures:
