Enable AI tools with MCP for Meta Horizon OS developers

Updated: Nov 10, 2025

Meta Quest Developer Hub (MQDH) integrates a dedicated Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, engineered to support AI assistant workflows. The MCP server is a self-contained executable. This design ensures easy portability and simplifies deployment, allowing you to integrate the MCP server into other applications or environments with minimal setup.

Enabling the MCP server within MQDH unlocks a suite of tools that:

Streamline documentation access for faster information retrieval

Enhance debugging with advanced troubleshooting tools

Accelerate content creation and prototyping by leveraging Meta’s extensive 3D asset library

This integration is designed to deliver a seamless, productive experience for developers working with Meta’s platforms. By centralizing essential tooling and resources, the MCP server helps you work faster, debug smarter, and build more effectively, whether you’re extending MQDH or embedding AI assistant capabilities in your own projects.

Connect your LLM

MCP for Meta Horizon OS developers uses STDIO to connect to your LLM agent. It provides several ways for you to connect the LLM agent of your choice.

Download MQDH

The latest version (v6.1.0) of Meta Quest Developer Hub (MQDH) includes a new AI Tools setting tab which helps you connect the MCP for Meta Horizon OS developers to the LLM agent of your choice.

To check your version of MQDH, navigate to Settings > About. Validate the currently installed version of MQDH is v6.1.0. If you do not have MQDH installed or need to update to the latest version, you can manually install MQDH for Mac or Windows.

Quick install

For Cursor and VS Code, there are one-click install links which automatically configure the MCP for Meta Horizon OS developers if Cursor or VS Code are installed.

Manual install

For the most popular agents listed below, there are guided setup instructions within MQDH.

Select the LLM agent from the drop-down of available setup instructions. For any LLM agent not listed, select Other and consult the documentation for your LLM agent.

How MCP server works with your AI assistant

When you submit a query, the client first requests the list of available tools from the MCP server. It then forwards your query, along with tool metadata, to your chosen interface. The interface analyzes your request and determines which tools, if any, are needed to address it. The client invokes these tools through the server, and the resulting outputs are sent back to the interface. Using these results, the interface generates a natural language response, which is then displayed for your review.

This workflow ensures that queries are processed efficiently, leveraging the appropriate tools to deliver clear and actionable answers for developers.

Available tools and capabilities

Once the MCP server is connected, you’ll be able to utilize the following tools.

Documentation tools

These tools streamline access to documentation across Meta Quest platforms and specific development environments.

get_unified_documentation_index: Instantly retrieves the latest, platform-agnostic documentation index for all Meta Quest platforms.

fetch_meta_quest_doc: Fetches full documentation pages directly for deep dives into specific topics.

Platform-Specific Documentation: Targeted access to resources for Unity, Unreal, Spatial SDK, Android, Native, and Web.

ADB tools

These tools enable robust interaction with Android devices, essential for development and debugging.

get_adb_path: Retrieves the path to the Android Debug Bridge (ADB) executable.

get_device_logcat: Accesses logcat logs from connected devices.

stream_device_logcat: Streams logcat logs in real-time.

take_screenshot: Captures screenshots from connected devices.

Meta 3D Asset Library
