A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides native integration with Apple Reminders on macOS. This server allows you to interact with Apple Reminders through a standardized interface.

• List all reminders and reminder lists
• Create new reminders with titles and optional details
• Mark reminders as complete/incomplete
• Add notes to reminders
• Set due dates for reminders
• Native macOS integration

• Node.js 18 or later
• macOS (required for Apple Reminders integration)
• Xcode Command Line Tools (required for compiling Swift code)

Install globally via npm:

npm install -g mcp-server-apple-reminders

1. Open Cursor
2. Open Cursor settings
3. Click on "MCP" in the sidebar
4. Click "Add new global MCP server"
5. Configure the server with the following settings:

   {
     "mcpServers": {
       "apple-reminders": {
         "command": "mcp-server-apple-reminders",
         "args": []
       }
     }
   }

1. Open ChatWise
2. Go to Settings
3. Navigate to the Tools section
4. Click the "+" button
5. Configure the tool with the following settings:
   • Type: stdio
   • ID: apple-reminders
   • Command: mcp-server-apple-reminders
   • Args: (leave empty)

You need to configure Claude Desktop to recognize the Apple Reminders MCP server. There are two ways to access the configuration:

1. Open Claude Desktop app
2. Enable Developer Mode from the top-left menu bar
3. Open Settings and navigate to the Developer Option
4. Click the Edit Config button to open claude_desktop_config.json

For macOS:

code ~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

For Windows:

code %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

Add the following configuration to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apple-reminders": {
      "command": "mcp-server-apple-reminders",
      "args": []
    }
  }
}

For the changes to take effect:

1. Completely quit Claude Desktop (not just close the window)
2. Start Claude Desktop again
3. Look for the tool icon to verify the Apple Reminders server is connected

Once configured, you can ask Claude to interact with your Apple Reminders. Here are some example prompts:

Create a reminder to "Buy groceries" for tomorrow at 5 PM.
Add a reminder to "Call mom" with a note "Ask about weekend plans".
Create a reminder in my "Work" list to "Submit report" due next Friday.

Show me all my reminders.
List all reminders in my "Shopping" list.
Show my completed reminders.

Show all my reminder lists.
Show reminders from my "Work" list.

The server will:

• Process your natural language requests
• Interact with Apple's native Reminders app
• Return formatted results to Claude
• Maintain native integration with macOS

This server provides the following MCP services for interacting with Apple Reminders:

create_reminder(title: string, dueDate?: string, list?: string, note?: string)

Creates a new reminder with the specified title and optional parameters:

• title: Title of the reminder (required)
• dueDate: Optional due date in format 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss' (e.g., '2025-03-12 10:00:00')
• list: Optional name of the reminders list to add to
• note: Optional note text to attach to the reminder

Example response:

{
  "content": [
    {
      "type": "text",
      "text": "Successfully created reminder: Buy groceries with notes"
    }
  ],
  "isError": false
}

list_reminders(list?: string, showCompleted?: boolean)

Lists all reminders or reminders from a specific list:

• list: Optional name of the reminders list to show
• showCompleted: Whether to show completed reminders (default: false)

Example response:

{
  "reminders": [
    {
      "title": "Buy groceries",
      "list": "Shopping",
      "isCompleted": false,
      "dueDate": "2024-03-25 18:00:00",
      "notes": "Don't forget milk"
    }
  ],
  "total": 1,
  "filter": {
    "list": "Shopping",
    "showCompleted": false
  }
}

list_reminder_lists()

Returns a list of all available reminder lists.

Example response:

{
  "lists": [
    {
      "id": 1,
      "title": "Shopping"
    },
    {
      "id": 2,
      "title": "Work"
    }
  ],
  "total": 2
}
