stdio Transport

This is the standard way to connect AI apps to Macuse. The AI app launches Macuse automatically and communicates with it directly.

Most users don't need this guide — use the Clients section for one-click setup. This page is for manual configuration or unsupported apps.

Configuration

Add this to your AI app's configuration file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "macuse": {
      "command": "/Applications/Macuse.app/Contents/MacOS/macuse",
      "args": ["mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Some apps (like VS Code) use a slightly different format:

{
  "servers": {
    "macuse": {
      "command": "/Applications/Macuse.app/Contents/MacOS/macuse",
      "args": ["mcp"]
    }
  }
}
