Capabilities

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

Runs an external command [пакет] fastpath/shell.py:198, cli.py:122, core/platform/macos/focus.py:202 и ещё 4

            proc = subprocess.Popen(cmd, shell=False)

Runs with shell=True cli.py:122

            proc = subprocess.run(ps_cmd, capture_output=True, text=True, timeout=6, shell=True)

Executes code built at runtime cli.py:112

                __import__(framework)

Builds a file path from a variable core/platform/macos/shell.py:74, core/platform/windows/shell.py:123

        full_path = os.path.join(d, candidate_app)

This code can reach further than it looks

We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

EXTRA - Native Computer Use — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for EXTRA - Native Computer Use?

EXTRA - Native Computer Use runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the pypi package extra-desktop.

How do I connect EXTRA - Native Computer Use?

Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls extra-desktop straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

Is EXTRA - Native Computer Use open source?

Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python and 4 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
