This code can reach further than it looks

We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

Unofficial Apple Music for macOS — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Unofficial Apple Music for macOS?

Unofficial Apple Music for macOS runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the pypi package secure-applemusic-mcp-for-osx was installed 91 times last week.

How do I connect Unofficial Apple Music for macOS?

Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls secure-applemusic-mcp-for-osx straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use Unofficial Apple Music for macOS?

The pypi package secure-applemusic-mcp-for-osx was installed 91 times in the last week. Week over week that is +40%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is Unofficial Apple Music for macOS open source?

Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python and 1 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
