Install
| Your app | Do this |
|---|---|
| **Claude desktop app, one click** (Mac) | Download iwork-studio- .mcpb from the latest release, double-click it, pick the folders it may use |
| **Claude desktop app** (Mac, from Terminal) | Paste in Terminal: curl -LsSf https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Arkanji/iwork-studio/main/install.sh \| sh, then quit Claude (Cmd-Q) and reopen |
| **Claude Code, as a plugin** (tools + skill) | /plugin marketplace add Arkanji/iwork-studio, then /plugin install iwork-studio@iwork-studio |
| **Claude Code, tools only** | claude mcp add iwork-studio -- uvx --from iwork-studio@latest iwork-studio-mcp |
| **Cursor, VS Code, Codex, any MCP client** | uvx --from iwork-studio@latest iwork-studio-mcp config, then paste the printed JSON into the client's MCP settings. Also listed in the MCP Registry as io.github.Arkanji/iwork-studio |
That's it. The installer sets up uv if needed, and uv brings its own Python.
- **Fence it** (recommended): … | sh -s -- --roots ~/Documents ~/Desktop limits it to those folders. Other clients: set IWORK_STUDIO_ROOTS (:-separated).
- **Load less** (optional): only work in Keynote? Set IWORK_STUDIO_TOOLSETS=keynote,design (any of files, numbers, keynote, pages, design; default all). Fewer tools keep the AI focused and its context small. The Claude Desktop extension has a *Toolsets* field; in Claude Code: claude mcp add iwork-studio -e IWORK_STUDIO_TOOLSETS=keynote,design -- uvx --from iwork-studio@latest iwork-studio-mcp. Capabilities, read, find, undo and the kit list always load.
- **First run:** macOS asks once whether Claude may control Keynote / Pages / Numbers. Click **OK**. (Missed it? System Settings → Privacy & Security → Automation.)
- **Check it:** ask *"what can iwork-studio do on this Mac?"*.
- **Remove:** uvx --from iwork-studio@latest iwork-studio-mcp uninstall
> **AI agent setting this up for someone?** Pick the row for their app, run it, then call iwork_capabilities. Rules for using the tools are in AGENTS.md.
Just ask, in English or Arabic
**No file handy?** Ask *"copy the iWork Studio samples to my Desktop and turn sample-sales.numbers into a board deck"*. The samples are synthetic sales data with an English and an Arabic sheet.
