AppleScript MCP Server (Dual access: python and node.js)

Overview

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that lets you run AppleScript code to interact with Mac. This MCP is intentionally designed to be simple, straightforward, intuitive, and require minimal setup.

I can't believe how simple and powerful it is. The core code is <100 line of code.
