Give AI models and agents a direct line to your iPhone
Connect the official ActivitySmith MCP server to Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Grok, or any other client that supports remote MCP servers. After OAuth approval, your agent can send remote approvals andPush Notificationswhile showing real-time updates withLive Activitieson your iPhone and iPad.
Set a standing rule for actions that need your approval, such as making any purchase, deploying to production, publishing publicly, sending an external email, or deleting data. When an agent reaches that boundary, ActivitySmith stores its request and delivers two clearly labeled actions through a Live Activity or Push Notification.
When you choose an action, the waiting agent receives the decision immediately. Pending requests remain available for up to 30 minutes, giving you time to respond after stepping away.

The server URL is the same in every client. Approve the OAuth screen in your browser to make the ActivitySmith tools available in new sessions.
1. Register the ActivitySmith MCP server
Open a terminal and run this command. User scope makes ActivitySmith available in Claude Code across all your projects.
claude mcp add --transport http --scope user activitysmith https://mcp.activitysmith.com/mcp
Start a new Claude Code session, then run this command inside the session and selectactivitysmith.
Return to Claude Code. ActivitySmith tools are now available in your sessions across all projects.
Install in Cursorwith one click. If you prefer manual setup, add the server to~/.cursor/mcp.json:
{ "mcpServers": { "activitysmith": { "url": "https://mcp.activitysmith.com/mcp" } }}
Cursor prompts you to log in the first time the server is used.
codex mcp add activitysmith --url https://mcp.activitysmith.com/mcp
In Grok, openConnectors, select New Connector, then select Custom and enter the server URL:
Complete the OAuth flow in the pop-up window. If Safari blocks it, allow pop-up windows forgrok.comand try again.
For Grok Build, add the server from a terminal:
grok mcp add --transport http activitysmith https://mcp.activitysmith.com/mcp
For any client that asks for a remote MCP server URL, usehttps://mcp.activitysmith.com/mcp. The authorization flow happens in ActivitySmith. After approval, tools run against the account you authorized.
The server exposes the following MCP tools, grouped by resource. We recommend keeping tool confirmation enabled in your client and exercising caution when combining the server with other MCP servers, to reduce the risk of prompt injection. API key administration remains in the ActivitySmith web app and is not exposed to MCP clients.
