## What pippin does, in the publisher's words

Use Pippin for Apple mail, calendar, reminders, contacts, notes, memos, messages, audio, browser work, and diagnostics.

mcp.json starts pippin mcp-server for clients that support Agent Plugins v1. The generated Claude Code adapter exposes the same server through.mcp.json.

- pippin-cli documents MCP use, command-line fallback, response envelopes, permissions, and command syntax.
- pippin-release contains the release procedure for the Pippin repository and Homebrew tap.
- Pippin installed on PATH.
- macOS privacy permissions appropriate to the requested data.
- Mail.app open for mail commands.

Run pippin doctor to inspect dependencies and permission state.

## Skills

- pippin-cli: Use Pippin through MCP or its command-line interface for Apple mail, calendar, reminders, contacts, notes, memos, messages, audio, browser work, permissions, and diagnostics.
- pippin-release: Cut a Pippin release by updating the version, changelog, tag, repository, and Homebrew tap, then verify both installations. Use for release, ship, or version-bump requests.

Descriptions come from the frontmatter of each SKILL.md, punctuation lightly normalized.
