### Description (declared)

# streamlit-mcp

**Serve any Streamlit app as an MCP server.** Agents introspect your app's widgets,
set values, click buttons, and read the rendered output and `session_state` — natively,
over MCP, with **no browser automation**.

📖 **Documentation:** <https://dkedar7.github.io/streamlit-mcp/>

```bash
pip install streamlit-mcp          # or run with no install via: uvx streamlit-mcp ...

# serve an app over MCP (stdio for local clients)
streamlit-mcp serve app.py
# ...or HTTP/SSE on loopback for local networked agents
streamlit-mcp serve app.py --transport http --port 8000

# drive it yourself from the terminal (same engine the agent uses)
streamlit-mcp inspect app.py
streamlit-mcp call app.py --set "Name=agent" --click "Save" --read
```

Streamlit has no callback graph — it reruns the whole script per interaction — so
streamlit-mcp drives the app headlessly through Streamlit's own test runtime
(`streamlit.testing.v1.AppTest`) and returns the **semantic element tree**, not pixels.
Gradio and Dash already shipped native app-as-MCP; this fills the Streamlit gap.

## Demo

A normal Streamlit app (what a human opens in a browser) and what an agent does with the same
app over MCP — `inspect` the widgets, `call` to set values / click / read the result. No browser:

<table>
<tr>

</tr>
<tr>
<td align="center"><em>The app a human runs</em></td>
<td align="center"><em>What the agent sees over MCP</em></td>
</tr>
</table>

A human can also watch the agent work **live** in their browser — no refresh, no browser automation —
by opting in with one `with` block (`from streamlit_mcp.live import live`). See the
[live / human-in-the-loop guide](https://dkedar7.github.io/streamlit-mcp/live/).
