Connect Claude Desktop to iCloud
Give Claude full access to your iCloud Calendar, Reminders, and Contacts using the built-in MCP connector. Ask Claude to check your schedule, create events, manage reminders, and look up contacts in natural language.
1. Create your Pear account
Sign up at pearmcp.com with your email. During onboarding you'll connect iCloud using an App-Specific Password — your main Apple password is never stored. You'll receive an API key (pear_sk_...).
2. Add the MCP connector
In Claude Desktop:
- Open Settings → Connectors
- Click “Add Connector” and select MCP
- Enter the Server URL:
https://pearmcp.com/api/mcp - Enter your API key as the Bearer token
Claude will automatically discover all 29 Pear tools once the connector is active.
3. Start using it
Claude now has access to your iCloud data. Try:
- “What meetings do I have today?”
- “Schedule a 30-minute call with Alex on Friday at 2pm”
- “Add a reminder to review the Q1 report by end of week”
- “Find the best time for a team lunch next week”
- “Give me a daily briefing”
Why Claude + Pear?
Claude's strength is reasoning about complex requests. With Pear, you can ask things like “find a 2-hour block this week where I have no meetings and create a focus time event” — Claude will check your calendar, find the slot, and create the event in one conversation. The MCP protocol means Claude calls Pear tools natively with no copy-pasting.
