POST /ui/inspector

Schedule opening or closing the device inspector.

This is a device HTTP route. Set DEVICE_URL to your reachable device URL; connection and examples explain how. Do not append this path to the public MCP URL.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Meaning
`action`	JSON string	open or close.

Response

JSON {scheduled:action}.

Example

curl --fail-with-body "$DEVICE_URL/ui/inspector" \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"action":"close"}'

Notes

Scheduling is not proof the overlay has already changed. Close it before external UI mutations or observation screenshots.

Check the HTTP status and any JSON error. HTTP workflows and error handling explain shared limits. All endpoints.
