Lovision Desktop MCP overview
Connect an AI client to the document currently open in Lovision Desktop.
Lovision Desktop MCP lets Codex, Claude, Cursor, and other MCP clients inspect and update the document currently open in Lovision Desktop. The server runs on your Mac over loopback and uses a per-machine bearer secret.
How it works
- Enable MCP in Lovision Desktop
Settings > MCP. - Copy the configuration for your AI client.
- Initialize a session with runtime
desktop-local. - Read the current document context and capability profile.
- Confirm meaningful writes before the agent changes the canvas.
- Run quality and preview checks when available, then report receipts.
The Desktop connection can expose current document, page, selection, viewport, fonts, tokens, components, Blueprint, quality, preview, and local-file grant capabilities. The capability profile is authoritative for the active session.
Security boundary
- The server listens on loopback by default.
- The bearer secret is generated locally and can be revoked from Settings.
- The connection only targets the active Lovision Desktop session.
- Do not commit or share copied MCP credentials.
