About Robot Control Service
Robot Control Service is an MCP service for controlling a robot arm with a servo motor using johnny-five. Its `moveMyServo` tool sets the servo angle from 0 to 180 degrees, and servo movement plays an audio clip.
Key features
- 01Control a servo-driven robot arm
- 02Set angle from 0 to 180 degrees
- 03Play an audio clip when the servo moves
Use cases
- 01Moving a connected robot arm servo
- 02Testing MCP control of a physical device
MCP support
Exposes the `moveMyServo` tool to MCP clients, accepting a `degrees` parameter from 0 to 180 to control the servo.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.
We haven’t collected a package or remote endpoint for this server. Follow the instructions in the project README.
Tools
Local servers expose tools only once running on your machine, and the maintainer has not provided a tool list.
Details
From the project READMERobot Control Service
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) service that controls a robot arm with a servo motor. When the servo moves, it plays "Hasta la vista, baby!" audio clip.
Requirements
- Node.js
- Arduino or compatible board connected via USB
- Servo motor connected to pin 10
- Speaker for audio output
Installation
npm install
Usage
- Connect Arduino board via USB
- Connect servo to pin 10
- Run the service:
node index.js
The service exposes an MCP tool called moveMyServo that accepts a degrees parameter (0-180) to control the servo position.
Dependencies
- @modelcontextprotocol/sdk - Model Context Protocol implementation
- johnny-five - JavaScript robotics framework
- webaudio-node - Web Audio API for Node.js
- zod - Schema validation library

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
