Apple Reminders for Claude

Fast, native Apple Reminders access for Claude — works in Claude Desktop, Claude Cowork, and Claude Code (CLI). One signed Swift/EventKit binary, three distribution packages.

No AppleScript, no unstable positional IDs, no 30-second MCP timeouts. Sub-second latency on databases with hundreds of reminders. Full UTF-8 support for German umlauts, accents, CJK characters, and emoji.

Published by high5 ventures GmbH — signed with Developer ID Application: high5 ventures GmbH and notarized by Apple.

Description

Apple Reminders for Claude gives Claude full CRUD access to your macOS Reminders app. It wraps Apple's native EventKit framework in a signed Swift binary that returns stable UUIDs and structured JSON, and ships three ways:

Target	Artifact	Distribution
Claude Desktop / Cowork	`.mcpb` bundle	Anthropic Desktop Extensions Directory
Claude Code (CLI)	Plugin with skill	Claude Code Plugin Directory
Any MCP client	npm package	MCP Registry (`io.github.high5-ventures/apple-reminders`)

All three paths share the same Swift binary and the same MCP protocol surface, so behavior is identical everywhere.

Features

13 MCP tools covering the full reminder lifecycle: list lists, list reminders (open/completed/all), full-text search, today/overdue/scheduled smart queries, CRUD on individual reminders.
Native EventKit — not AppleScript, not reverse-engineered SQLite scraping.
Stable UUIDs — reminder IDs survive across sessions, unlike AppleScript URIs or CLI positional indexes.
Tool safety annotations — every tool declares readOnlyHint / destructiveHint so Claude clients can auto-run queries but prompt for mutations.
Language-neutral — the skill matches on intent, not keywords. Works identically in German, French, Spanish, Japanese, etc.
Sub-second latency — full CRUD smoke-test completes in under 1 s on a database with 300+ reminders across 10 lists.
Signed + notarized — no Gatekeeper warnings, MDM-deployable, enterprise-ready.
100% local — no network I/O. See PRIVACY.md.

Installation

Option 1 — Claude Desktop / Cowork (recommended for most users)

Install from the Anthropic Desktop Extensions Directory (in-app search) or download the latest signed .mcpb from Releases and double-click it. Claude Desktop shows an install dialog; click Install, then on the first tool call, grant Reminders access in the macOS privacy prompt.

Option 2 — Claude Code CLI

/plugin install apple-reminders@claude-plugins-official

…or add the high5 ventures marketplace directly from GitHub:

/plugin marketplace add high5-ventures/apple-reminders-for-claude
/plugin install apple-reminders@high5-apple-reminders-for-claude

Option 3 — Any MCP-compatible client (Cursor, Zed, etc.)

npm install -g @high5ventures/apple-reminders-mcp

Then point your client at @high5ventures/apple-reminders-mcp as a stdio MCP server. See your client's documentation for configuration specifics.
