Usage

Basic Example

from apple_mcp import FastMCP, Context

# Initialize FastMCP server
mcp = FastMCP("Apple MCP")

# Use the tools
@mcp.tool()
def find_contact(name: str) -> List[Contact]:
    """Search for contacts by name"""
    # Implementation here
    pass

# Run the server
if __name__ == "__main__":
    mcp.run()

Using Individual Modules

from utils.contacts import ContactsModule
from utils.notes import NotesModule

# Initialize modules
contacts = ContactsModule()
notes = NotesModule()

# Use the modules
async def main():
    # Find a contact
    contact = await contacts.find_contact("John")
    
    # Create a note
    await notes.create_note(
        title="Meeting Notes",
        body="Discussion points...",
        folder_name="Work"
    )

# Run the async code
import asyncio
asyncio.run(main())
