Connect Pomeroy to Raycast

Pomeroy copies the three values Raycast asks for. Paste them into Raycast’s Install MCP Server form. Then Raycast can reach Mail, Calendar, Reminders, Notes, Contacts, Messages, Maps, Weather and Shortcuts on your Mac, each app behind its own switch.

Raycast is the launcher with AI built in, and it works with Pomeroy. Pomeroy writes the configuration and you paste it in. Raycast can then read the apps you switched on, and no others.

What Set up does. Raycast has no configuration file Pomeroy can write and no install link Raycast documents, so Pomeroy puts the three values on your clipboard and tells you where they go.

Set up

1. Install Pomeroy and switch on your apps

   Download Pomeroy, drag it into Applications and open it. Switch on the apps you want Raycast to reach. Everything starts off, and macOS asks you to approve each app as you switch it on. The full walkthrough.

2. Install Raycast, if you have not

   Pomeroy lists the assistants it finds on this Mac, so install Raycast first if it is not there. Returning to Pomeroy’s window re-checks.

3. Press Set up

   In Pomeroy’s Assistants pane, find Raycast and press Set up. It is safe to press any number of times. It writes the same thing every time, and it never disturbs another server already there.

4. Pick it up

   No restart needed. Raycast picks the server up on its own.

5. Ask something

   In Raycast, ask what is on your calendar today. The answer comes from your Mac.

The configuration

Set up puts this on your clipboard. It is here so you can see what Pomeroy adds, check it by hand, or set up a second Mac without opening the panel.

Goes in Raycast › Install MCP Server:

Name: Pomeroy
Transport: Standard Input/Output
Command: /Applications/Pomeroy.app/Contents/MacOS/pomeroy-mcp

The command is a single absolute path with no arguments, and it lives inside Pomeroy’s app bundle, so an update never changes it. What the pipe is.

Over the local endpoint

Raycast can also reach Pomeroy over the HTTP endpoint instead of the pipe. Use it only for a copy running somewhere that cannot start a program on this Mac, such as a container or a remote workspace. Switch the local address on in Pomeroy’s Connections pane first.

Goes in Raycast › Install MCP Server:

Name: Pomeroy
Transport: HTTP
URL: http://127.0.0.1:13579/mcp
HTTP Headers — key: Authorization
HTTP Headers — value: Bearer <the key Pomeroy generates>

Pomeroy writes the real token in place of the placeholder when it can reach this assistant’s settings. Otherwise you can read the token under Connections.

How to check it worked

In Raycast, open Install MCP Server, fill in Name, Transport and Command with the copied values, and save. The server then shows in Raycast’s MCP server list, and Raycast AI can use its tools.

If the tools are missing, the cause is almost always that the assistant has not re-read its server list. Troubleshooting.

What it can reach

Only the apps you switched on, and only through the tools Pomeroy publishes. Raycast cannot send mail, send a message, delete anything or edit a contact, because no tool does those things.

What Pomeroy can do

Ten apps, 27 tools, and every refusal.

Permissions

What each toggle grants, and what macOS asks you for.

Other assistants

All 24, and what to do if yours is not listed.
