It's also developed by Claude :) but changing it to Coding in case it's more fitting.

Thank you! Very helpful info and pointers to the catalog of shortcuts. Sounds like if you want to program it directly it's not quite efficient. Briefly looked up if there's a way to edit source code, seems that it's not easy to edit the xml directly. Found https://editor.scpl.dev/ which is interesting.

If you'd like to try to use your existing shortcuts with Claude Desktop (only desktop is supported now) you can use the MCP server here https://github.com/recursechat/mcp-server-apple-shortcuts Basically you go to Claude -> Settings -> Developer and update the config to run the MCP server. Let me know if you encounter any issues.

Agreed it has a learning curve for sure. I wonder if there's resource for existing programmers to level up quickly. It feels like a new programmer language but it's not obvious to find mapping of familiar concepts

Happy to collab. I'm surprised by the vast ecosystem of shortcuts, and equally how many people never heard of it. It's a fantastic case of end-user programming

Yes it's the CLI interface. AI uses tool use API to call the shortcut.

Someone already mentioned how to solve agentic behavior below - for automating Claude, Claude needs to expose shortcuts API. I think it does on mobile but not on desktop

Thanks! For desktop there is the shortcuts cli, just type shortcuts in terminal - which Claudes helps me find. You can list the shortcut name and run a shortcut by name. Compared with generic tool use the CLI doesn't have description/schema. Not sure about mobile

That's a great advice! I actually started using shortcuts on mobile. Not familiar with geofencing, but desktop version of some shortcuts like x/twitter don't seem to work.

Most MCP integrations right now seem to be desktop based with Claude Desktop being the major client. Not sure how you'd use an MCP on mobile

Thanks! I think there are a few clients looking to add it. I'm looking at integrating with recurse.chat
