# serial-mcp

> Use this tool when you need to integrate AI agents with serial devices, such as monitoring sensor data or debugging device output. The serial-mcp server enables non-blocking access to serial output by buffering lines and allowing polling for new data, solving issues with long-running serial monitors. It takes serial device output as input and provides buffered lines as output, ideal for use cases where continuous monitoring is required without hindering AI agent performance.
