Appium MCP
By Appium (OpenJS Foundation). Category: MCP servers for testing. Homepage
The Appium project's GitHub README describes Appium MCP as an open-source MCP server that gives AI assistants tools for mobile automation on Android, through UiAutomator2, and iOS, through XCUITest. A test generation tool produces automated test code from natural language scenarios, with the README example requesting Java and TestNG. Another tool generates element locators, and an opt-in AI vision mode finds elements using a user-supplied OpenAI-compatible vision API. The server runs locally through npx or against a remote Appium server. Setup is documented for Cursor, Gemini CLI and Claude Code CLI. It is Apache 2.0 licensed.
