The mcp-my-mac server provides real-time Mac system and Conda environment information for AI assistants like Claude to offer targeted assistance and troubleshooting.
This server allows:
- Access to Mac System Information: Retrieve detailed hardware, software, and configuration data via
system_profiler
(WiFi, network, power, storage, etc.) - Conda Environment Analysis: Get comprehensive details about Conda installations, environments, packages, and Python setups
- GPU Availability Checks: Assess Apple Metal (MPS) GPU acceleration for PyTorch/TensorFlow, including performance benchmarks
- AI-Driven Optimization: Enable system-specific insights for software optimization and issue resolution
The server runs as a secure local API, executing only verified commands with minimal overhead.
MCP My Mac
A lightweight server that exposes Mac system information via a simple API, allowing AI assistants like Claude to access real-time system information about your Mac. This tool is primarily designed for Mac users who want to experiment with AI and Deep Learning on their machines.
Status: BETA - This project is currently in beta. We're actively looking for feedback to improve functionality and user experience. Please share your thoughts and suggestions!
Why Use It?
- Provides Claude Desktop or other MCP clients with access to your Mac's hardware specifications, system configuration, and resource usage
- Enables more targeted and accurate assistance for software optimization and troubleshooting
- Runs as a secure local API with minimal overhead
- Only executes safe, verified commands:
system_profiler
- to gather system informationconda
- to analyze Python environment configurations
Installation
Method 1: Using UV + Git Clone
Prerequisites
- Python 3.8 or higher
- UV package manager installed
Steps
- Clone the repository:
bash git clone git@github.com:zhongmingyuan/mcp-my-mac.git
- Configure for your AI client:[Claude Desktop] Add the following to your MCP server config file:
[Cursor] Add tool by selecting "command" in UI:Note: Replace
/YOUR_PATH_TO
with the actual path where you cloned the repository.
Usage
After installation, Claude Desktop will automatically connect to this API when running on your Mac, allowing it to access system information when needed for answering your questions or providing assistance.
You must be authenticated.
local-only server
The server can only run on the client's local machine because it depends on local resources.
