MCP.Pizza Chef: screenpipe
This tool quietly records your screen and audio in the background, then lets your AI assistant search through everything later in plain language. Ask what you were looking at ten minutes ago, get a summary of today's meetings, or have your assistant build simple automations that react to what you're working on. It works with Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code, and Cline, installs with a short command, and keeps every recording stored only on your own computer.

README
screenpipe FAQ
Can I use this to find something I had on my screen days ago?
Yes — it records your screen and audio continuously, so you can describe what you remember and your AI assistant will search back through your history to find it for you.
Can I use this to get a summary of my meetings and calls?
Yes — because it also captures and transcribes audio, you can ask for a summary of today's conversations or a specific call without having to record it separately.
Which apps and AI assistants does this work with?
It connects to Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code, and Cline, and it also comes with its own standalone desktop app if you would rather not use it through another assistant.
Do I need an API key or a paid account to use it?
No account or API key is required to get started — you install a short command on your own computer and it begins recording right away, fully under your control.
How hard is it to set up?
Setup is quick — you paste one short command into your terminal or into your AI assistant's settings, and there is nothing else to configure before it starts working.
Is my recorded data private?
Yes — everything stays stored on your own computer rather than being sent to any outside server, so you are the only one with access to it.
Will it slow down my computer or fill up my storage?
It is built to run quietly in the background, typically using a small share of your computer's processing power and only a few gigabytes of storage each month.
Can it accidentally capture sensitive information like my passwords?
No — it includes built-in filters that are designed to block passwords and other sensitive details from ever being recorded in the first place.
