What it does
ChatMCP is a client for chatting with models that can connect MCP servers. It works on macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS, Android and the web. You download the app, and launching MCP servers needs `uvx` or `npx`. The latest release v0.0.76 came out on 25.08.2025, more than a year ago. Apache-2.0 license.
Who it is for. For people who want an open chat client with MCP support on several platforms, including phones.
Good fit when
- You need a chat with a model and MCP servers on a phone or on the web
- You need an open client with MCP for different systems
- You need to quickly test an MCP server in a chat
Not a fit when
- You need a fresh client in active development: the latest release is from August 2025
- You need a coding agent: this is a chat client
Example request
Connect a file server in ChatMCP and ask the model which documents are in the project folderLimitations
The latest release v0.0.76 came out on 25.08.2025, so support for new MCP features may lag behind. MCP servers launch through uvx or npx, so Python or Node.js is needed. The client sends messages to the chosen model provider and can run connected servers: check which servers you connect.
How to disable. Remove the app in the usual way for your system and the MCP server entries from its settings.
