"Tips for Using a Mac More Effectively" matching MCP servers:

MCP server for local Mac desktop control, enabling mouse, keyboard, and screenshot actions for AI agents like Grok and Cursor.

Zero-dependency macOS desktop automation for AI agents. Screenshot, mouse, keyboard, clipboard, and window control via MCP. 18 tools, macOS 13+, one command: npx mac-use-mcp.

fork from https://github.com/JoshuaRileyDev/mac-apps-launcher

Enables AI agents to interact with macOS applications (Finder, Mail, Contacts, Reminders, Notes, Calendar, TextEdit) using AppleScript. Allows AI assistants to perform tasks like searching contacts, managing files, checking email, and creating reminders through natural language.

Enables safe scanning and cleaning of macOS developer caches and temporary files, with dry-run support and strict refusal to delete non-whitelisted locations.

An open-source MCP server for macOS that lets AI control desktop apps in the background without moving the cursor or stealing focus.

A native Swift MCP server for full macOS automation, providing 63 tools for controlling windows, browsers, clipboard, screen capture, OCR, input simulation, and more.

A minimal macOS GUI-automation MCP server providing tools to see app state, perform actions, manage apps, send notifications, and run AppleScripts with security boundaries.

Self-learning macOS automation MCP server that remembers successful patterns and avoids repeated failures, enabling AI agents to execute multi-step workflows via reusable recipes.

Enables an MCP client such as Claude to inspect a Mac's battery, memory, CPU, GPU, disk, and most energy-hungry apps, and to shut down, restart, sleep, or lock the screen now or on a schedule with a cancellable 60-second grace period.

Stop Package Chaos: Unveil Your Mac’s Setup for Targeted ML Debugging

Provides full control of a macOS system, enabling AI agents to execute shell commands, run AppleScript, manage files and processes, and perform human-like GUI interactions such as clicking, dragging, scrolling, and typing, with a screenshot-based perception loop.

Enables voice-controlled hardware to execute approved Mac actions (like opening apps and querying system status) through a secure MCP bridge.

MCP server for macOS desktop automation enabling screenshot, click, type, scroll, and more. Retina-aware, supports CJK text input and multi-monitor, works with any MCP client without API keys.

An MCP server that allows secure execution of macOS terminal commands through Claude or Roo Code with built-in security whitelisting and approval mechanisms.

Enables AI assistants to automate macOS through AppleScript and JXA by providing 44 tools for application management, window control, and UI interaction. It allows for comprehensive system control including screen capture, keyboard and mouse simulation, and system information retrieval.

An MCP server to list and launch applications on MacOS

An MCP server that enables AI coding agents to capture screenshots of macOS windows and displays on demand, providing tools for window discovery and screen capture.

Provides macOS agent tools for Accessibility and EventKit operations over MCP stdio/HTTP, enabling UI automation, calendar/event access, permission gating, and optional vision configuration.

Provides agents with real Linux VMs to run commands, manage files, expose ports, and track costs, all through an ephemeral sandbox service.
