Connect Cursor to iCloud

Connect Cursor to Pear's hosted MCP server so your editor can work across iCloud Calendar, Reminders, Contacts, and Mail. That gives Cursor real Apple context for scheduling, TODO follow-up, contact lookup, and inbox workflows while you code.

2 min setup AES-256 encrypted JSON config

1. Create your Pear account

Sign up at pearmcp.com, connect iCloud with an App-Specific Password, and create your Pear API key. Keep it in your local environment or password manager.

2. Add the MCP config

Add Pear from Cursor's global MCP settings. Do not paste a real Pear API key into this JSON file or commit credentials into a project repository.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pear": {
      "url": "https://pearmcp.com/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer ${env:PEAR_API_KEY}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Set PEAR_API_KEY in your local user environment outside the repo, then restart Cursor.

3. Start using it

In Cursor's AI chat, try asking it to use Pear's 34 Apple tools:

  • “Do I have any meetings in the next 2 hours?”
  • “Create a reminder to deploy this PR by 5pm”
  • “What's the email for the DevOps team lead?”
  • “Schedule a code review session for Thursday afternoon”
  • “Show unread iCloud Mail about the release and draft a reply with next steps.”

What Pear unlocks inside Cursor

  • Read, create, reschedule, and delete calendar events without leaving the editor.
  • Create reminders tied to code reviews, deployments, QA checks, and follow-ups.
  • Search contacts, triage iCloud Mail, and combine those with free-time search and meeting planning.
  • Use one hosted MCP endpoint instead of maintaining a custom Apple integration per project.

Why Cursor + Pear?

Developers live in their editor. With Pear connected to Cursor, you don't need to context-switch to check your calendar or set a reminder. Ask Cursor's AI about your schedule between code completions — it's like having a personal assistant built into your IDE.
