Interesting ways to use MCP-AppleScript with an AI assistant (e.g. GitHub Copilot, Claude) in everyday life and at work.
"Look at my Calendar events for next week that have 'dinner' in the title, then create a Reminders list called 'Groceries' with one reminder per ingredient I'll need."
The assistant reads Calendar events via app.search, extracts meal names, reasons about ingredients, and creates reminders via app.create — all without you leaving the chat.
"Find my latest flight confirmation email, pull out the dates and destination, then create Calendar events for the flights and a packing checklist in Reminders."
Uses app.search on Mail to find the confirmation, app.create on Calendar for flight events, and app.create on Reminders for the packing list.
"Create a Photos album called 'Birthday Party 2026' and tell me how many photos I took last Saturday so I can decide which ones to import."
Uses app.create on Photos to make the album and app.search or app.list to count recent media items by date.
"Check my Calendar for tomorrow's meetings, then for each one create a Note with the event title, attendees, and a blank 'Action Items' section."
The assistant uses app.list on Calendar filtered by date, then app.create on Notes for each meeting — giving you a ready-made set of meeting notes before the day starts.
"Summarize my unread Mail in the Inbox: group messages by sender, flag anything that looks urgent, and list the subjects I haven't replied to."
Uses app.search on Mail to fetch unread messages, then the assistant analyzes and summarizes them in the chat. Follow up with app.action to flag or reply.
"Look at today's Calendar events and my completed Reminders, then draft a standup update in Notes summarizing what I did and what's still open."
Combines app.search on Calendar and Reminders, then app.create on Notes with a formatted standup summary — ready to paste into Slack or Teams.
