Arm, take off and move a vehicle (tools fail closed while the link is down)
Generate lawnmower survey plans from a georeferenced satellite map view
Validate, preflight-check, upload and verify plans before start_mission; upload refuses unvalidated plans
Serve over stdio, streamable HTTP or SSE

$ git clone https://github.com/ion-g-ion/MAVLinkMCP.git
$ cd MAVLinkMCP
$ uv sync

Point your MCP client at /abs/path/to/MAVLinkMCP/.venv/bin/mavlinkmcp (stdio), or uv run --project /abs/path/to/MAVLinkMCP mavlinkmcp
MAVLINK_PORT defaults to 14540 (PX4 SITL); leave MAVLINK_ADDRESS empty to listen, set it to send to a peer
README: start with PX4 SITL and keep a human ready to land; the HTTP transports have no authentication
pip install -e . also works instead of uv sync

Install steps taken from the project README (its recommended path first). Placeholders are the maintainer's. Not bench-tested by HardwareMCP yet.
