Touchdesigner MCP server

What it does

This MCP server bridges AI agents to TouchDesigner projects through the WebServer DAT, allowing programmatic control of nodes, parameters, and execution of Python scripts. It is for developers and AI agents that need to automate or control TouchDesigner workflows.

• Create, modify, and delete nodes in a TouchDesigner project via AI agent commands.
• Query node properties, parameters, and project structure to understand the current state of a TouchDesigner network.
• Execute Python scripts and call node methods to automate TouchDesigner operations based on AI agent logic.

Before you enable it

An MCP server runs with whatever access you give it. Start with a development account rather than production, and check which tools the server exposes before you let an agent call them unattended.
