AppControl MCP is a local server connecting AI agents and IDEs like Claude, Cursor, and Windsurf to system history provided by the AppControl desktop app. Ask which apps used CPU, GPU, RAM, or disk, and what caused slowdowns, heat spikes, or webcam, mic, and location access. Built for deep historical monitoring and useful real-world PC insights.
Drift inferred · capture-to-capture
No drift recorded — single capability capture; advisories appear once its surface changes.
tools
-
get_binary
Get detailed info for one or more binaries by ID (batch with comma-separated IDs) — path, hash, signature, publisher, first-seen time, and running status.
-
get_hardware
Get CPU, GPU, and temperature sensor info for the monitored system.
-
get_monitoring
Get time-series resource metrics — system-wide (CPU, memory, disk, GPU, temps) or per-binary with top-N/min-value filtering to find heavy resource consumers.
-
get_stats
Get service stats, current timestamp, and uptime/idle intervals showing when the PC was on, off, or idle.
-
list_binaries
List tracked binaries with filters — unsigned-only, currently-running, first-seen-after date, path substring, or publisher ID.
-
list_processes
List currently running processes with binary ID, name, path, PID, and start time. Filterable by fields.
-
list_publishers
List code-signing publishers (certificate identities) — name, country, and linked binary/rule counts.
-
list_rules
List quarantine rules — blocked binaries and publishers with rule type and creation time.
-
query_history
Query security event history — binary first-seen events, quarantine blocks, alerts, and process starts. Filterable by event type, time range, and binary ID.
No code evidence — the analyzed source reached for no tracked permissions, tools, or hooks.
