Buildtree
Upload Android and iOS builds to buildtree and get install links, QR codes and tester feedback.
Runs on your machine from its package; the steps are below.
What it does
- Reads
- Writes
- High impact
At most: moves money, runs code or commands, deletes data, or sends messages for you.
What it costs
FreeOdel charges nothing per call. The publisher may charge for its own service.
Runs locally over stdio
This server isn't hosted — your MCP client launches it from a package registry. Use one of the commands below, or drop the config into your client (e.g. Claude Desktop).
Run
npx -y @buildtree/mcp
MCP client config
{
"mcpServers": {
"buildtree": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@buildtree/mcp"
]
}
}
}buildtree MCP server
MCP server for buildtree, the fastest way to share Android and iOS builds with testers. Let your AI coding agent set up buildtree for your app, run the build, upload the .apk or .ipa, and hand you an install link and QR code to share. It can also read the feedback and screenshots testers send back.
Works with Expo, React Native, Flutter, and native Android and iOS apps, in Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Gemini CLI, Cursor and Windsurf.
"Set up buildtree for this app and give me a QR code for an Android build."
Install
Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport stdio buildtree -- npx -y @buildtree/mcp
Claude Desktop: download buildtree-mcp-<version>.mcpb from the latest release and double-click it. Or add the JSON below to claude_desktop_config.json.
Codex CLI (~/.codex/config.toml)
[mcp_servers.buildtree]
command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "@buildtree/mcp"]
tool_timeout_sec = 1800
Gemini CLI, Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Desktop (JSON)
{
"mcpServers": {
"buildtree": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@buildtree/mcp"] }
}
}
Requires Node 20 or later.

Sign in
The first time, your agent opens a browser page where you approve the connection. The login is stored where the buildtree CLI keeps its own, so either can sign in for both. In CI, set BUILDTREE_TOKEN to an API token from the buildtree dashboard. Tokens never appear in tool output.
