    Your iPhone is the MCP server.

    This page gets your Mac talking to it.

    AxisMCP runs the server on your iPhone or iPad. AXIS is the local-first CLI that fronts your machines. This hub holds the links, the install one-liner, and the copy-paste snippets.

    Add AxisMCP to your project's mcp.json, then toggle it on under Settings → Tools & Integrations.

    Pairing happens on-device over your local network — Bonjour discovers it, your phone approves it, and the connection stays on Wi-Fi.

    What this site is — and isn't

    This hub is the companion for AxisMCP and AXIS: links, install, and client snippets. All the real work happens on your devices. To be precise, this web app:

    This site does not run MCPDoes not attach to XcodeDoes not call local LLMsDoes not SSHDoes not deploy TestFlight

    What it does do: show you where to buy AxisMCP, how to install the AXIS CLI, and exactly what to paste into Cursor, Claude Code, or any MCP-capable client to reach your phone at http://iphone.local:5648/mcp.
