Numbersmcp

Overview

Numbersmcp is a Model Context Protocol server that connects AI assistants directly to macOS Numbers.app, letting you read and manipulate spreadsheets through AppleScript. Instead of switching between applications or manual data entry, your AI can interact with Numbers as a native tool.

It runs entirely on your local machine via the npm package numbersmcp, which communicates over stdio with your MCP client. No authentication is needed—install with npx -y numbersmcp and it works immediately. The server is at v0.4.0 under the MIT license, maintained at aernouddekker/macos-mcp on GitHub.

Numbersmcp is listed in the File System category and works with MCP clients including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and Zed. If you maintain this server, claim your listing to verify ownership and keep the information up to date.
