Blipboard MCP
An MCP server that allows AI agents to create, update, push scenes to, read, and delete ambient split-flap display boards via a browser-based interface, enabling agents to show status updates, reminders, or dashboards to humans on physical screens.

create-board-tool — Create Board Tool
Create a new Blipboard split-flap display board. Returns the display URL (open it on any screen — that IS the board, safe to share) and a secret pushToken used to push content later. No account needed.
{
"type": "object",
"required": [
"name"
],
"properties": {
"name": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Human-readable board name, e.g. \"Living Room\"."
},
"layoutId": {
"enum": [

],
"type": "string",
"default": "wide-frame",

}
}
}{}push-scenes-tool — Push Scenes Tool
Push text scenes to a Blipboard board. Scenes replace your source's previous scenes by default and rotate as a playlist on the display. Requires the board's secret pushToken.
{
"type": "object",
"required": [
"boardUrl",
"pushToken",
"source",
"scenes"
],
"properties": {
"scenes": {
"type": "array",
"description": "Scenes to display, each an object: {\"lines\": [\"ROW 1 TEXT\", \"...\"], \"durationMs\"?: 1000-300000, \"ttlSeconds\"?: seconds until the scene disappears, \"expiresAt\"?: ISO 8601, \"tileColors\"?: [{\"row\",\"column\",\"color\"}], \"animations\"?: [{\"row\", \"column\", \"frames\": [\"🟩\",\"⬛\"], \"intervalMs\"?: 200-10000}]}. lines are placed 1:1 (line N = row N, char M = column M, no centering). Palette emojis ⬜🟥🟧🟨🟩🟦🟪 render as colored tiles; ALL other emojis are supported and display literally as characters (one emoji = one tile), e.g. \"HELLO 🎉\". animations make a single tile flip between 2-8 frames while the scene is shown — e.g. a blinking terminal cursor {\"row\":0,\"column\":21,\"frames\":[\"🟩\",\"⬛\"],\"intervalMs\":1000} or winking eyes with emoji frames."
},
"source": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Lowercase identifier of the pusher, e.g. \"claude\". Each source owns its scenes; pushing replaces only this source's scenes."

}
}{}read-board-tool — Read Board Tool
Read what a Blipboard board is currently showing: its layout and the active scene playlist. No pushToken needed.
{
"type": "object",
"required": [

}update-board-tool — Update Board Tool
Change a Blipboard board's look without recreating it: switch to a named style preset and/or set fine-grained style overrides (fonts, tile colors, flip speed, transitions). The open display picks the change up within ~10 seconds. Layout stays immutable. Requires the board's secret pushToken.

},
"stylePreset": {
"enum": [
"Vestaboard",
"Modern Board",

],
"type": "string",
"description": "Switch the board to a named style preset. Available: Vestaboard, Modern Board, Default."
},
"styleOverrides": {
"type": "object",

Pass null for a key to remove an override. Common keys: font.family (roboto-flex|jetbrains-mono|space-mono|nerd-hacker|anton), font.weight, tile.face (hex), board.bg (hex), tile.radius, tile.flip.speed (0.05-0.6 s), transition.mode (classic|wave|drift|curtain), transition.overlap (0-1), light.angle, light.intensity."
}
}
}{}delete-board-tool — Delete Board Tool
Permanently delete a Blipboard board and all its scenes. Requires the board's secret pushToken. This cannot be undone.
{

],
"properties": {
