## Intro

mcp-server-apple-events exposes macOS Reminders/Calendar actions to MCP clients via Apple Events, with an `npx` quick start and ready-to-copy configs.

**Best for:** macOS users who want agents to create/update reminders safely

**Works with:** macOS, Node.js via npx, Cursor / Claude Desktop MCP configs

**Setup time:** 3-8 minutes

### Key facts (verified)

- GitHub: 108 stars · 33 forks · pushed 2026-05-13.
- License: MIT · owner avatar + repo URL verified via GitHub API.
- README-verified entrypoint: `npx mcp-server-apple-events`.

## Main

- Use `npx -y mcp-server-apple-events` for the fastest path; only build locally if you need Swift bridge changes or diagnostics.

- Copy the README’s client config snippets (Cursor / Claude Desktop) to avoid transport/args mistakes.

- If builds fail due to SDK/toolchain mismatch, follow README guidance to upgrade Swift (it calls out Swift 6.3+ requirements).

### Source-backed notes

- README Quick Start shows running the server with `npx mcp-server-apple-events` and provides Cursor/Claude Desktop config JSON using `npx -y`.
- README includes Swift toolchain verification commands (`xcrun swiftc --version` and `xcrun --show-sdk-version`).
- README documents both npx and local-build options for running the server (node with `bin/run.cjs`).

### FAQ

- **Is this macOS-only?**: Yes — it targets Apple Events for macOS Reminders/Calendar integration per README.
- **Do I have to install globally?**: No — README recommends npx for a zero-install run; local builds are optional.
- **Why mention Swift versions?**: README explains some builds require Swift 6.3+ due to macOS SDK interface changes.

**Works with:** macOS；npx/Node.js；Cursor/Claude Desktop MCP 配置

**Setup time:** 3-8 minutes

### Key facts (verified)

- GitHub：108 stars · 33 forks；最近更新 2026-05-13。
- 许可证：MIT；作者头像与仓库链接均已通过 GitHub API 复核。
- README 中核对过的入口命令：`npx mcp-server-apple-events`。

## Main

- 最快路径是 `npx -y mcp-server-apple-events`；只有在需要改 Swift bridge 或深入排障时再本地 build。

- 直接复制 README 的 Cursor/Claude Desktop 配置片段，避免 command/args/transport 配错导致连不上。

- 若本地构建遇到 SDK/工具链不匹配，按 README 建议升级 Swift（文中提示需要 Swift 6.3+）。

### Source-backed notes

- README 的 Quick Start 给出 `npx mcp-server-apple-events`，并提供 Cursor/Claude Desktop 的 JSON 配置示例（`npx -y`）。
- README 给出 Swift 工具链自检命令：`xcrun swiftc --version` 与 `xcrun --show-sdk-version`。
- README 说明既可用 npx 运行，也可本地构建后用 node 指向 `bin/run.cjs` 启动。

### FAQ

- **只能在 macOS 用吗？**：是的。README 说明它基于 Apple Events，对接 macOS 的 Reminders/Calendar。
- **必须全局安装吗？**：不必。README 推荐用 npx 直接运行；本地 build 只是可选项。
- **为什么会提 Swift 版本？**：README 解释某些 SDK 接口需要 Swift 6.3+，否则会出现构建失败。
