Cupertino — Offline Apple Docs MCP Server

Main

• Prefer the prebuilt bundle first: get a stable offline index, then decide if you need re-crawl/build for custom sources.

• Wire it as a shared team tool: add to your MCP client config so every agent session can query docs deterministically.

• Reduce token waste: search locally and cite canonical doc URLs instead of copying long pages into model context.

Source-backed notes

• README claims an offline bundle with 277,000+ pages across 402 frameworks (v1.0.2 bundle) and SQLite FTS5 search.
• README provides an instant setup path: cupertino setup then cupertino serve.
• README includes one-command wiring for Claude Code (claude mcp add cupertino --scope user -- $(which cupertino)).

FAQ

• Do I need internet after setup?: For offline search, no — once the bundle is downloaded, the index is local.
• Can I use it with Codex/Cursor?: Yes — README includes config snippets for Codex TOML and Cursor .cursor/mcp.json.
• Should I build the database myself?: Only if you need custom sources; README notes remote build can take ~45 minutes.
