What is the Autonomous MCP Server?
The Autonomous MCP Server is an intelligent assistant automation tool that allows Claude Desktop to automatically run and manage tasks on macOS. By communicating with Claude Desktop through AppleScript, it can wake up Claude at regular intervals, send heartbeat signals to maintain the connection, and execute tasks in the distributed task queue.How to use the Autonomous MCP Server?
Using the Autonomous MCP Server requires three basic steps: 1) Build and start the server. 2) Initialize the scheduling system. 3) Manage tasks through Claude Desktop or the command line. The server communicates with Claude Desktop through standard input and output, and tasks are executed regularly in the background through the launchd service.Applicable scenarios
Suitable for scenarios where Claude Desktop needs to execute tasks regularly, such as: automatically generating reports daily, backing up data regularly, performing periodic system checks, triggering automated workflows, etc. It is especially suitable for macOS users who need Claude to automatically run tasks at specific times.Main features
Intelligent wake-up function
Wake up Claude Desktop at regular intervals through AppleScript to ensure that the AI assistant starts automatically and is ready when needed.
Heartbeat detection mechanism
Send heartbeat signals regularly to keep the Claude connection active. The detection frequency and conditions can be configured.
Automated scheduling system
Use the macOS launchd service to implement reliable task scheduling, supporting custom execution times.
Distributed task queue
Supports queuing and execution of multiple tasks, with independent records of output, errors, and exit status for each task.
Persistent state storage
Use the SQLite database (WAL mode) to save state information, supporting graceful schema upgrades.
Debugging and testing tools
Provide test commands and status checking functions to facilitate development and troubleshooting.
Advantages
Optimized for macOS and deeply integrated with the system.
Reliable execution of scheduled tasks, using launchd to ensure scheduling stability.
Complete task execution records for easy result checking and debugging.
Simple command-line interface for easy management and operation.
Open-source project with transparent and customizable code.
Limitations
Only supports the macOS system and cannot run on other operating systems.
Requires Claude Desktop to be installed and configured.
Depends on AppleScript and may be restricted by system permissions.
Requires basic command-line operation knowledge.
The distributed function is relatively basic and suitable for lightweight tasks.
How to use
Obtain and build the project
First, clone the project repository and use Cargo to build the Rust project.
Start the MCP server
Run the server, which will communicate with Claude Desktop through standard input and output.
Initialize the scheduling system
Set up scheduled tasks, such as automatically waking up Claude at 1:00 am every day.
Test the function
Use the test command to verify that the AppleScript communication is working properly.
Usage examples
Daily automatic data sorting
Set up Claude to automatically wake up every day at dawn to sort the documents and data from the previous day.
Periodic system health check
Send a heartbeat signal every hour to ensure that the Claude connection is normal and check the system status at the same time.
Batch task processing
Add multiple data processing tasks to the queue and let Claude automatically execute them in order.
