  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add mint -- npx -y @dzg-studio/mcp-server-mint

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {

Common questions

Is Mint for Mac safe?

It passed 1 of 2 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed yesterday, and the latest version (1.2.1) reached the registry yesterday.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

Mint MCP Server

Smart Storage. For you and your agent. Mint brings storage analysis, file-preserving optimization, reviewed cleanup, Auto Care, file organization and memory management into one Mac workflow.

The product method

Mint distinguishes Optimizable, Safe to clean, Yours and Keep. Eligible duplicate copies can share storage while both files remain; supported Codex optimization preserves the pictures needed to continue a conversation. Identified caches and leftovers have different consequences from personal files, conversations and media. Required, active, protected or uncertain data stays unchanged. Auto Care continues supported routines within the scope and schedule the person enables while Mint is running.

This launcher exposes the Direct edition’s supported agent interface, not every app feature. Agents can inspect storage and use the native MCP cleanup tools; conversation optimization, media removal, storage sharing, folder setup and memory management are reviewed in the app. Auto Care requires paid access, and availability differs by edition. See the complete workflow and current boundaries and canonical product facts.

This npm package is a small open-source launcher. It locates the signed mint-cli bundled with the direct edition of Mint, verifies the DZG Studio LLC code signature, and starts its local stdio MCP server. It does not contain Mint itself or send storage data to DZG Studio. Tool results are shared with the MCP client you connect; that client may use a remote AI provider.

Requirements

macOS 14 Sonoma or later
Node.js 18 or later
Mint Direct from https://mintstorage.app/ (macOS 14 or later); keep the native app updated

Install Mint and launch it once from Finder. Mint normally links mint-cli into /opt/homebrew/bin or /usr/local/bin; the launcher can also use the binary inside /Applications/Mint.app.

The npm launcher’s currently published version is 1.0.1. The native app supplies the tools, so installing the launcher alone does not update the scanner or execution engine. Setapp and Mac App Store editions do not include CLI/MCP. See current product and edition facts and Direct pricing.

Configure an MCP client

"mcpServers": { "mint": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@dzg-studio/mcp-server-mint@1.0.1"] } } }

Or, if mint-cli is already on PATH:

mint-cli mcp

Set MINT_CLI_PATH=/absolute/path/to/mint-cli to use a nonstandard installation.

Claude Desktop extension

The mcpb/ source in the public repository packages this launcher as a one-click Claude Desktop extension. Build it with npx -y @anthropic-ai/mcpb pack mcpb/ mint-safe-mac-storage.mcpb, then install the resulting file from Settings → Extensions → Advanced Settings → Install Extension.

Tools

mint_status — disk trends, recent activity, and managed-folder status.
mint_why — storage-growth attribution or operations involving a path.
mint_scan — read-only reclaimable-space survey.
mint_agents — read-only AI-tool storage from Mint's latest scan: usage by tool, conversation age and state, and compressible archived Codex media.
mint_recent and mint_activity — operation history and reasons.
mint_rules — list and dry-run cleanup rules.
mint_execute — journaled cleanup with a reason and returned batchId.

Tool schemas and supported operations depend on the installed native app. Read the current tool schema before execution; do not reuse an older example as authorization.

Safety model

mint_execute can only move items to Trash, and only inside Mint’s cleanup roots or user-managed folders. Protected paths are refused, and Needs Review paths must be confirmed in Mint.app. Recoverable actions enter Mint’s 90-day operation journal and can be undone while both the journal entry and underlying trashed item remain available. Permanent deletion is not exposed to agents.

The server asks clients to use reviewed Mint operations. It cannot prevent an agent from invoking another deletion tool. A scan is not user consent to change files. Moving files to Trash on the same volume does not itself recover disk space; do not report moved bytes as physically reclaimed bytes.
