  • Modular design for easy extension

Supported Applications

  • Contacts
  • Notes
  • Mail
  • Messages
  • Reminders
  • Calendar
  • Maps

Installation

  1. Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/jxnl/python-apple-mcp.git cd python-apple-mcp
  1. Create a virtual environment:
python -m venv venv source venv/bin/activate # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate
  1. Install dependencies:
pip install -r requirements.txt
  1. Install test dependencies (optional):
pip install -r requirements-test.txt

Usage

Basic Example

from apple_mcp import FastMCP, Context # Initialize FastMCP server mcp = FastMCP("Apple MCP") # Use the tools @mcp.tool() def find_contact(name: str) -> List[Contact]: """Search for contacts by name""" # Implementation here pass # Run the server if __name__ == "__main__": mcp.run()

Using Individual Modules

from utils.contacts import ContactsModule from utils.notes import NotesModule # Initialize modules contacts = ContactsModule() notes = NotesModule() # Use the modules async def main(): # Find a contact contact = await contacts.find_contact("John") # Create a note await notes.create_note( title="Meeting Notes", body="Discussion points...", folder_name="Work" ) # Run the async code import asyncio asyncio.run(main())

Testing

Run the test suite:

pytest

Run tests with coverage:

pytest --cov=utils tests/

Run specific test file:

pytest tests/test_contacts.py
