I’ve drafted a naive implementation of NNW MCP support through AppleScript. It supports listing feeds, getting/searching articles, subscribing new feeds…
I can now schedule a daily task that lets Claude summarize that day’s new articles and order them based on my previous behaviors every morning.
We love how AppleScript support is worth way more than the effort we put into it — users can keep creating cool things that we couldn’t have imagined back then.
To be clear: we didn’t do anything in NetNewsWire to support AI, LLMs, or MCP, but, since the app is scriptable, you can do all kinds of useful things with it.
Here’s the netnewswire-mcp repo on GitHub.
