Frequently asked questions

1

What runtime dependencies are required?

Node.js (for the npx command) or Python with `uv` installed (for the uvx or local setup). Optionally, SSH must be enabled on the Mac for remote execution.

2

How do I configure the server for Docker usage?

Use the npx command with `--remoteHost`, `--remoteUser`, and `--remotePassword` arguments. Ensure SSH is enabled on the Mac host and proper credentials are provided.

3

How do I run AppleScript remotely?

Use the remote execution feature via SSH by passing the SSH hostname, username, and password or key. The server can then execute AppleScript on a machine at the given address.

4

Can I use this server without cloning the repository?

Yes. For Python, you can run directly with `uvx --from git+https://github.com/peakmojo/applescript-mcp mcp-server-applescript`. For Node.js, use `npx @peakmojo/applescript-mcp`.

5

Are there any known limitations or security considerations?

The server executes arbitrary AppleScript and shell commands on the Mac. Use caution when granting it access, especially when using remote SSH execution.
