Shortcuts
The Shortcuts integration speaks to Apple Shortcuts, allowing AI assistants to browse your installed shortcuts, view their details, and run them with optional input.
Requirements
- Permission: Automation (for
shortcuts_get, which queries Shortcuts Events)
shortcuts_list and shortcuts_run work without additional prompts. shortcuts_get requests Automation access to Shortcuts Events the first time it runs.
shortcuts_run executes the shortcut with real side effects: sending messages, modifying files, hitting APIs. Interactive shortcuts that wait on user dialogs will time out instead of running.
Tools
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
shortcuts_list | List installed shortcuts, optionally filtered by name or folder |
shortcuts_get | Get metadata for a shortcut: action count, whether it accepts input, and folder |
shortcuts_run | Run a shortcut by name, with optional text input and timeout (default 30s, max 300s) |
Example Usage
- "List all my shortcuts"
- "What's in the 'Daily Standup' shortcut?"
- "Run my 'Generate QR Code' shortcut with the URL https://example.com"
- "Show me shortcuts in the Productivity folder"
