Description

Mac Messages MCP provides a bridge for AI assistants to interact with the macOS Messages app, enabling reading recent messages and sending new ones through a set of well-defined tools. Developed by Carter Lasalle, it accesses the Messages database and AddressBook contacts directly, with features for contact lookup, fuzzy name matching, and group chat support. The implementation includes robust error handling for permission issues and runs as an MCP server that integrates with Claude Desktop, making it particularly valuable for users who want to manage their iMessage conversations without leaving their AI assistant interface.
