Setup and Usage

Install

Install the global CLI, then register it in your MCP client. Client-specific JSON lives under Setups.

npm i -g @screenbeaver/mcp

Requirements

• Windows desktop app (recommended) — Native capture, system-wide cursor, Android USB, and full agent control.
• Chrome or Edge — Best path for live captions and local WebCodecs export.
• MCP client — Cursor, Claude Desktop, or any client that speaks MCP.

First demo

Open Screen Beaver, ensure the MCP bridge is running, then ask your agent:

Record a product walkthrough of our dashboard:
1) open the app
2) click through signup → home → settings
3) add captions and prepare export

Preferred flows

• record_and_build — Capture + auto captions/zooms/recipe-style polish in one shot.
• live_build_demo — Drive the UI live — zooms, captions, effects, and voiceover while you watch.

You typically click Export for the final MP4. Agents can also call export tools when appropriate.

Manual fallback

MCP is the unique path — not the only one. The same studio works when you record and edit by hand. See the studio features on the homepage.
