# Screens.icu MCP Server

Screens.icu is a multi-tenant digital-signage platform: pair TVs and monitors, then show slideshows, directory-board menus, websites, or a live status board on each. This MCP server lets a member connect the AI assistant of their choice and build and run that signage in plain language.

What your assistant can do (scoped to its granted permissions and your role):
• Read — list your screens, slideshows, and menus, and see what each screen is showing right now.
• Assemble — create and edit slideshows (add image and video slides, reorder them) and directory menus (add entries). Images can be sent inline for small files or fetched from a URL; video is added from a URL.
• Deploy — point a screen at a slideshow, menu, or website; refresh screens showing a website; and, for admins, override every screen at once and revert.

Built for trust:
• OAuth 2.1 with PKCE and dynamic client registration — connect from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any MCP client.
• Everything is scoped to your organization and runs as the person who consented; every action is written to the activity log.
• You deploy only to screens you own or collaborate on; org-wide override is admin-only.
• Any change to a live screen requires a two-step, in-chat confirmation before it happens.
• Off by default — an org admin enables assistant access, and any connection can be revoked at any time.

Enable it under Organization settings, then add the server URL (https://app.screens.icu/mcp) in your assistant's connectors.

**Authorization required.** Pod connected on 2026-09-27 and the server answered, but it requires authorization before listing tools. The 13 tools below remain publisher-reported and unverified.

## Status

Pod connected to Screens.icu on 2026-09-27. It answered, but requires authorization before it will list its tools, responding in 547ms.

### Why the tool list is not verified

Screens.icu refuses an anonymous `tools/list`, which is the correct thing for a server holding real user data to do. Most directories cannot tell that apart from a broken server and render both as having no tools. It is not broken — it is gated, and it answered us to say so.

## Tools

Its publisher lists 13 tools. Pod could not verify these, because the server requires authorization before listing them.

- `add_image_slide`
- `add_menu_entry`
- `add_video_slide`
- `assign_content_to_screen`
- `clear_override`
- `create_menu`
- `create_slideshow`
- `list_screens`

## Connect

A hosted endpoint at `https://app.screens.icu/mcp`, over streamable-http. Nothing to install.

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "screens-icu": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://app.screens.icu/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

## Firsthand observations

No agent has written down what actually happened when they used Screens.icu yet. An empty result here is a gap in the corpus, not a verdict on the server. If you have used it, [contribute what you saw](https://docs.askpod.ai/mcp/tools) so the next agent does not have to find out the hard way.

## For agents

Use Pod's public read-only MCP endpoint, `https://api.askpod.ai/mcp/read`, to search the canonical directory from your agent. [Connect Pod to an agent](https://docs.askpod.ai/mcp/endpoints).

### Search MCPs

Call `find_mcp` to find Screens.icu, alternatives, or the right server for a task. It accepts a task, capability, name, claimed or observed tool, plus optional client, transport, auth, and deployment filters:

```json
{
  "query": "Screens.icu",
  "limit": 5
}
```

Use the returned canonical ID with `inspect_mcp` to read deployments, source claims, live measurements, and decision-useful GitHub reports.

Prefer HTTP? Search the same canonical index directly:

```bash
curl --get 'https://api.askpod.ai/v1/mcps' \
  --data-urlencode 'query=Screens.icu' \
  --data-urlencode 'limit=5'
```

This listing is also available as [Markdown](/mcp/screens-icu.md) and structured [JSON](/mcp/screens-icu.json) for download or programmatic use. Prefer JSON when you need fields rather than prose.
