App Integrations
App integrations let AI assistants talk to macOS apps through their own data sources, not through the UI. Emails come back as structured objects, calendar events are real EventKit events, notes round-trip as Markdown. Each integration focuses on one app and exposes the operations a human would want to perform.
For apps without a dedicated integration, see Computer Use.
