# Audacity MCP Server This project implements an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that connects to Audacity via its mod‑script‑pipe interface. Using named pipes, the server sends commands to Audacity and receives responses, allowing you to control Audacity (for example, starting/stopping recording or playback) through MCP endpoints. The server can be launched using the `uv` tool and integrated with the Claude Desktop client. ## Table of Contents 1. [Features](#features) 2. [Requirements](#requirements) 3.
