Why This MCP Bundle?

Claude Desktop doesn't support http:// remote connectors directly. This .mcpb provides a way to connect without manually editing configuration files.

Installation

Prerequisites

1. Download Macuse from https://macuse.app/download/
2. Drag Macuse.app into /Applications
3. Launch and grant the necessary permissions

Install MCP Bundle

Download macuse.mcpb from Releases and double-click to install in Claude Desktop.

To uninstall, remove it from Claude Desktop settings.

Alternative: Direct CLI

For MCP clients that support custom commands, you can skip this MCP bundle and configure directly:

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

First Connection

1. Macuse launches automatically if not running
2. Approve the OAuth authorization prompt
3. Connection established

Each client gets separate authorization, manageable in Macuse settings.
