What it does
LMCP runs on your computer and connects an assistant to apps and accounts through MCP: mail, calendars, contacts, messages, tasks, files and documents. Listed integrations include Apple Mail, Outlook, Microsoft Teams, Slack, WhatsApp, Signal, Google Drive, OneDrive, Microsoft 365, Notes and Reminders. Some integrations work only on macOS and the rest need sign-in or permissions. The agent gathers context from several apps at once: for example it finds from mail and messages what you owe a contractor, or builds a day plan from the calendar and tasks. Browser automation is included. Web assistants such as ChatGPT and claude.ai connect through cloud data forwarding. The core binary is closed source; the repository holds documentation, releases and an npm wrapper.
Who it is for. People who want an agent to see work correspondence, calendars and files on their own computer and act on them.
Good fit when
- You need every request from one person gathered from mail, chats and documents.
- An agent builds a day plan from the calendar, tasks and messages.
- Customer replies are drafted from orders and inventory data in local files.
- One tool set is connected to Claude, Codex and Cursor at once.
Not a fit when
- The agent must not touch personal correspondence and messengers.
- You need fully open source code; the product core is closed.
- The work machine runs Linux, which has no installers.

Limitations
The core is proprietary and the documentation and scripts have a separate license. macOS 13 or newer and Windows 10 or newer are supported, and native Apple tools exist only on Mac. Install through a signed `.pkg` or Windows installer, or a `curl` or PowerShell script, which you should read before running. Features and integration availability depend on the assistant, platform and granted permissions; README examples show scenarios rather than guaranteed outcomes. The agent acts with your rights, so review every write and send before confirming.
How to disable. Remove the plugin or the `local-mcp` entry from the client, revoke app permissions in system settings and uninstall LMCP with the macOS or Windows standard tools.
FAQ
How do I connect LMCP to Claude Code?
Install the LMCP app first. Then run `claude plugin marketplace add colibird-ai/local-mcp-claude-plugin` and `claude plugin install local-mcp@local-mcp`.
What does `npx -y local-mcp@latest setup` do?
It configures compatible clients it finds on the computer, such as Cursor, Windsurf, Zed and Claude Desktop. The LMCP app must already be installed.
Does LMCP work with ChatGPT and claude.ai?
Yes, through cloud data forwarding, since web assistants connect differently from local clients. Details are in the guides on local-mcp.com.
Is the source code open?
Not for the core: the main binary is proprietary. The repository holds releases, documentation and the npm wrapper.
Does it work on Linux?
The documentation lists macOS 13 or newer and Windows 10 or newer. No Linux installers are mentioned.
