Underneath it runs AppleScript, the automation language built into macOS, which means most of what you would click, your assistant can do instead: set a reminder, add a calendar event, start a note, find files from last week, check the battery, play a playlist, take a screenshot, open a page in Safari. Setup is a short snippet pasted into Claude Desktop, with no key or account needed. Mac only. It can also run shell commands, so grant permissions thoughtfully.

AppleScript MCP Server (Dual access: python and node.js)

npm version License: MIT

Overview

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that lets you run AppleScript code to interact with Mac. This MCP is intentionally designed to be simple, straightforward, intuitive, and require minimal setup.

I can't believe how simple and powerful it is. The core code is <100 line of code.

applescript-mcp FAQ

Is this project still maintained?
Reasonably. The last change was in February 2026, and it is a deliberately small project, under a hundred lines at its core.
Does it work on Windows?
No. AppleScript exists only on macOS, so this is Mac-only.
Do I need a key or an account?
No. There is nothing to sign up for and nothing to pay.
How hard is setup?
You paste a few lines into Claude Desktop's settings file. macOS will then ask your permission the first time it touches Notes, Calendar, Contacts or Messages.
Can I use this to sort out my week?
Yes. Reminders, calendar events, notes and finding files are all standard requests, and you can chain several in one go.
Is it safe?
Treat it with care. It can run shell commands and reach your files, messages and mail, so only use it with an assistant you trust and watch what it proposes.
