apple-docs-mcp and cupertino
These are **complements** — one provides search access to official Apple documentation across multiple frameworks and WWDC videos via MCP, while the other crawls local Apple documentation for offline access, allowing developers to use both together for comprehensive documentation coverage online and offline.
About apple-docs-mcp
kimsungwhee/apple-docs-mcp
MCP server for Apple Developer Documentation - Search iOS/macOS/SwiftUI/UIKit docs, WWDC videos, Swift/Objective-C APIs & code examples in Claude, Cursor & AI assistants
Implements a full-featured MCP server using stdio transport that indexes Apple's official JSON API to enable hierarchical framework browsing, natural language search across documentation, and automatic UserAgent rotation for reliable scraping. Supports multi-platform compatibility tracking (iOS 13+, macOS 10.15+, watchOS 6+, tvOS 13+, visionOS) and integrates WWDC video transcripts with code examples, enabling developers to discover framework relationships and platform-specific API availability directly within Claude, Cursor, VS Code, and other MCP-compatible editors.
About cupertino
mihaelamj/cupertino
A local Apple Documentation crawler and MCP server. Written in Swift.
Crawls Apple Developer documentation, Swift.org, and Swift Evolution proposals into a SQLite FTS5 database with BM25 ranking, then exposes search via MCP's stdio transport for integration with Claude, VS Code, Cursor, and other AI agents. Indexes 302,000+ pages offline with deterministic, hallucination-free results—no internet required during queries.
