MCP Manager provides a user-friendly desktop interface for managing Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers on macOS, specifically for the Claude Desktop application. It simplifies the integration of various external services and data sources, allowing Claude to access and process information from notes, cloud services, web searches, and local files, thereby enhancing its capabilities for users.

How It Works

The application leverages Electron with React and Vite for its desktop framework, enabling a local, secure user experience. It offers pre-configured integrations for numerous popular services like Apple Notes, AWS, Brave Search, Google Drive, and GitHub, among others. Users can easily manage server settings and copy necessary terminal commands for setup, streamlining the process of enabling advanced functionalities for Claude.
