v0.1.0

The first release of Tidesman — a native MCP server that lets an AI assistant (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, or any MCP client) run, understand, and debug Linux containers on your Mac through Apple's container tool.

Highlights

  • Nine container tools — system_ping, container_list/inspect/logs/run/exec/stop/kill/delete.
  • Safe by default — three access modes via --mode (read-only / safe / full); host-folder mounts are off unless you pass --allow-host-mounts.
  • Full audit trail — every tool call is logged (name, arguments with secrets redacted, outcome).
  • Talks straight to Apple's engine via Apple's own Swift client library — no command-line scraping.
  • Signed with an Apple Developer ID certificate and notarized by Apple.

Requirements

  • Apple Silicon Mac running macOS 26.
  • Apple's container installed and started (container system start).

Install

  • Homebrew: brew install JeronimoColon/tidesman/tidesman
  • .pkg installer, direct .zip, or the .mcpb bundle for Claude Desktop — all attached below.
