iMCP – Connect Your macOS Messages, Calendar, and More to Claude
Interact with all your Apple apps and data via Claude Desktop – or your favorite MCP client. MCPs are super hot right now but they're definitely still developer-grade user experiences. We built iMCP because we wanted to see what it would take to start to build a more consumer friendly experience on top of MCP. Not just connecting IDEs to databases and SaaS APIs. iMCP is open source and built entirely in Swift with our MCP Swift implementation: https://github.com/loopwork-ai/mcp-swift-sdk Tell us what you think!

iMCP is an open-source tool that connects Apple's Messages, Calendar, and other macOS apps to Claude Desktop or other MCP clients, allowing users to interact with their Apple data through AI. Built entirely in Swift, it aims to make Model Context Protocol technology more accessible to everyday users rather than just developers. The tool integrates personal productivity apps with AI assistants in a consumer-friendly way.

Apple Health MCP Server2025 · github.com · ▲199Hey HN, This is an MCP server to chat with Apple Health data. I built it because I'm working on (yet another) personal trainer tool that keeps track of my workout goals, etc. and does scheduling for me. Part of that is weekly check-ins.
