# Siri Shortcuts

The `siri-shortcuts` MCP server exposes two tools:

- `list_shortcuts` returns one shortcut name per line.
- `run_shortcut` takes `name` (exact, case-sensitive) and an optional text `input`, and returns the shortcut's text output.

## Workflow

1. Call `list_shortcuts` once per conversation. Never guess a name.
2. Pick the shortcut whose name matches the request. If none fits, say so and suggest the user create one in the Shortcuts app.
3. Before a shortcut that sends a message, spends money, deletes data, or unlocks a door, confirm with the user.
4. Call `run_shortcut`. Pass the user's text as `input` only when the shortcut uses "Shortcut Input".
5. Report the output. An empty-output message means the shortcut finished without returning text.

## Errors

- `not in SIRI_SHORTCUTS_ALLOW` means the user restricted which shortcuts this server may run. Tell them which name to add.
- Any other error is the Shortcuts app's own message. Relay it as-is.
- If the tools are missing, the server is not running. It needs macOS with the `shortcuts` command (macOS 12 or later).
