What is Keyboard Maestro MCP?

This is a bridge connecting AI assistants to Keyboard Maestro. Through this MCP server, you can manage all your automation macros through natural - language conversations, just as if you had a professional automation assistant on standby at all times.

How to use Keyboard Maestro MCP?

After installation, simply tell your AI assistant (such as Claude, Cursor, etc.) what automation tasks you want to perform. It will automatically call the corresponding tools to operate Keyboard Maestro. There's no need to open the Keyboard Maestro editor; everything is done through conversations.

Applicable scenarios

Suitable for users who need to frequently create, modify, or manage Keyboard Maestro macros, especially those who want to control automation processes in a more natural way or need to process multiple macros in batches.

Main features

Macro management
Search, list, create, clone, delete, enable/disable, and run macros. You can find macros by name, view detailed information about all macros, or directly execute specific macros.
Action editing
Manage each step in the macro: add new actions, reorder, delete steps, export action definitions, replace action content, and find and replace text in actions.
Trigger editing
Add new trigger conditions (such as shortcuts, time, events, etc.) to the macro, delete existing triggers, or modify the detailed settings of triggers.
Variables and logs
Read, write, or delete Keyboard Maestro variables, view recent macro error records, and search engine logs for troubleshooting.
Group management
Organize macros into different groups for easy classification and management. You can create new groups or move macros to different groups.
Advantages
No need to manually operate the Keyboard Maestro interface; all operations can be completed through conversations
Supports batch operations, such as modifying multiple macros simultaneously
Can quickly copy and modify existing macros to improve work efficiency
Provides detailed error logs and debugging information for easy troubleshooting
Supports multiple AI clients, including Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, etc.
Limitations
Only available for the macOS system (Keyboard Maestro is a macOS - exclusive application)
Requires a Node.js v18+ runtime environment
The AI assistant has full access to Keyboard Maestro, so it's necessary to carefully review the proposed modifications
Requires basic command - line operation knowledge for initial setup

How to use

Installation prerequisites
Ensure that Keyboard Maestro is installed and running on your Mac, and also install Node.js v18 or a higher version.
Clone and install the project
Open the terminal and run the following commands to download and install the Keyboard Maestro MCP server.
Run the setup wizard
Use the setup wizard to automatically configure your AI client. The wizard supports multiple clients such as Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, etc.
Start using
After configuration is complete, start a direct conversation in your AI client and manage your Keyboard Maestro macros using natural language.

Usage examples

Debug faulty macros
When a macro stops working, you can ask the AI assistant to check the logs and find out the problem.
Batch - modify multiple macros
You need to modify the settings of multiple related macros at once, such as changing all macros that open Chrome to open the Arc browser.
Quickly create new automation
You need to create a new automation task, such as automatically mounting a NAS drive when connecting to a specific WiFi.
Organize the macro library
You need to reorganize a large number of macros and classify them into different groups for easy management.
