### Description (declared)

# Apple Ecosystem MCP

An MCP server that bridges Claude to native macOS apps (Mail, Calendar, Contacts, Reminders, iCloud Drive) via AppleScript and Python.

**Requirements:** macOS 13+ with Claude Desktop or Claude Code

## Installation

### Claude Desktop (recommended for most users)

1. Download `apple-ecosystem-mcp.dxt` from [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/abhinavag-svg/apple-ecosystem-mcp/releases)
2. Double-click the `.dxt` file — Claude Desktop will prompt you to install it
3. Restart Claude Desktop and grant macOS permissions when prompted

### Claude Code

Install via `uvx` (requires uv package manager):

```bash
uvx apple-ecosystem-mcp
```

Or configure locally in `~/.claude/claude_desktop_config.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apple-ecosystem": {
      "command": "uv",
      "args": ["run", "--project", "/path/to/apple-ecosystem-mcp", "apple-ecosystem-mcp"]
    }
  }
}
```
