With this server\ninstalled, you can ask Claude Desktop or Claude Code things like *\"summarise\nthis COCO file, run the pipeline on it, and build the key\"*, or *\"write the\ntreatment for acok from the matrix and audit it\"*, and it runs the same\nDescriptron programs you would run from a shell.\n\nThe server runs **on your own computer** and reads **your own files**. Nothing\nis uploaded anywhere except what the assistant itself reads through the tools.\n\n## Install\n\nPython ≥ 3.10 is needed for the server itself. The programs can run in a\ndifferent environment. See *Configuration* below.\n\n**Now.** Install the analysis package from PyPI, then the server from GitHub\n(until the server is on PyPI too):\n\n```bash\npython -m venv descriptron-mcp-env\nsource descriptron-mcp-env/bin/activate        # Windows: descriptron-mcp-env\\Scripts\\activate\n\npip install descriptron-core\npip install \"git+https://github.com/alexrvandam/Descriptron#subdirectory=packages/descriptron-mcp\"\n\ndescriptron-mcp --check                        # shows what it found\n```\n\nFor the GPU programs (detectors, SAM2-PAL, DINOLand) also\n`pip install descriptron-vision`.\n\n**Later (from PyPI):**\n\n```bash\npip install descriptron-mcp            # analysis programs (CPU)\npip install \"descriptron-mcp[vision]\"  # + detectors, SAM2-PAL, DINOLand (GPU)\n```\n\n**With Docker instead** (no Python setup; includes the GPU programs):\n\n```bash\nclaude mcp add descriptron -- docker run -i --rm --gpus all \\\n  --user \"$(id -u):$(id -g)\" -v \"$HOME:$HOME\" \\\n  ghcr.io/alexrvandam/descriptron:2.0.3 mcp\n```\n\nWithout an NVIDIA GPU (e.g. on a Mac), leave out `--gpus all`: Docker refuses to start\nwith it, and everything except the GPU programs works the same.\n`-v \"$HOME:$HOME\"` makes your files appear inside the container a…","publisher":{"name":"Alex R.
