What is the Toolpiper MCP server?

If you already use Toolpiper, the toolpiper mcp server is the piece that lets your assistant work with it directly. 300+ on-device MCP tools for macOS — local AI, voice, vision, browser automation, system control.

What the server does

No cloud. No Docker. No Python. No API keys. Nothing leaves your Mac, and you can verify that yourself: lsof -i -P | grep ToolPiper while it runs.

Installation

Setup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client. The configuration blocks on this page cover the common clients.

Credentials and setup notes

  • macOS on Apple Silicon - Free: the full local model runner — no caps, no account - Pro ($10/mo): all 9 inference backends, full voice suite, and more — see pricing

Worth knowing first

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • Keep per-call confirmation enabled while you learn its behaviour; it is the cheapest safeguard you have.

Where it fits

This sits in the browser automation group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. It is maintained by ModelPiper; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
