What it does

Creates a TCP bridge that lets AI assistants (Cursor, Copilot, Claude) talk directly to a running Cheat Engine instance to run memory scans, pointer searches, and other reverse‑engineering commands via plain text.

When to use it

•You need to automate repetitive Cheat Engine tasks (e.g., finding a health pointer) without manually clicking through the UI.
•Your AI‑powered product must analyze a game’s memory in real‑time from a remote server or container.
•You want to prototype a “natural‑language cheat” feature where users type a request like “show me the current score” and the system fetches it from the process.

Ready-to-paste prompt

```
# In Claude/Cursor, with the bridge running on localhost:1337
MCP.Send("scanvalue", {value=1234, type="float", scan_type="exact"})
MCP.Send("findpointers", {address="0x00FF1234", max_depth=3, max_offset=0x200})
```

Heads up: Cheat Engine must be run **as Administrator** (or with elevated privileges) for the TCP server to bind to the port and to read/write another process’s memory; otherwise the bridge will start but all MCP commands will error out.
