Getting Started
- You need a Mac computer with Apple Silicon running macOS 14.0 (Sonoma) or later
- Download the binary file from the Releases section
- Configure your MCP-compatible application (Cursor or Claude Desktop app) by adding the following configuration:
{ "mcpServers": { "macPilotCli": { "command": "/path/to/downloaded/binary" } } } - Grant the necessary permissions (screen recording, accessibility) to the application you're using with MacPilot CLI. For example, if you're using Cursor, make sure Cursor has the required permissions in System Settings.
- Switch to a tool-compatible model according to your application's requirements, and you're ready to use MacPilot CLI
Recommended Servers
@kazuph/mcp-taskmanager
Model Context Protocol server for Task Management. This allows Claude Desktop (or any MCP client) to manage and execute tasks in a queue-based system.
Claude Code MCP
An implementation of Claude Code as a Model Context Protocol server that enables using Claude's software engineering capabilities (code generation, editing, reviewing, and file operations) through the standardized MCP interface.
ThingsPanel MCP
An integration server that connects AI models with ThingsPanel IoT platform, allowing AI assistants to interact with IoT devices through natural language for device control, data retrieval, and management operations.
Beamlit MCP Server
An MCP server implementation that enables seamless integration between Beamlit CLI and AI models using the Model Context Protocol standard.
MCP Python Toolbox
A Model Context Protocol server that enables AI assistants like Claude to perform Python development tasks through file operations, code analysis, project management, and safe code execution.
Shell MCP Server
A secure server that enables AI applications to execute shell commands in specified directories, supporting multiple shell types (bash, sh, cmd, powershell) with built-in security features like directory isolation and timeout control.
Command Executor MCP Server
A Model Context Protocol server that allows secure execution of pre-approved commands, enabling AI assistants to safely interact with the user's system.
DevEnvInfoServer
An MCP server that provides detailed information about your development environment to the Cursor code editor, enabling more context-aware assistance.
mcp-cli-exec MCP Server
A CLI command execution server that enables running shell commands with structured output, providing detailed execution results including stdout, stderr, exit code, and execution duration.
Siri Shortcuts MCP Server
Enables interaction with macOS Siri Shortcuts via the Model Context Protocol, allowing users to list, open, and run shortcuts dynamically with optional inputs.
