text

User: "Connect my iPad"
User: "用有线模式连我的 iPad"

→ AI calls: connect_device_async device_name="<device_name>" wired=true

Example 2: Check Status

text

User: "Is my iPad connected?"
User: "看看 Sidecar 状态"

→ AI calls: get_status

Example 3: Disconnect

text

User: "Disconnect iPad"
User: "断开 iPad 连接"

→ AI calls: disconnect_device device_name="<device_name>"

Example 4: Web Console

text

User: "Start the Sidecar web console"
User: "打开 Sidecar 远程控制台"

→ AI calls: start_http_server port=8765

Example 5: List Devices

text

User: "Show me available Sidecar devices"

→ AI calls: list_devices

🎯 Use Cases

Daily Workflow

bash

# 1. Connect iPad (async, non-blocking)
mcporter call sidecar-onestep.connect_device_async device_name="iPad Pro" wired=true

# 2. Start web console
mcporter call sidecar-onestep.start_http_server port=8765

# 3. Check status
mcporter call sidecar-onestep.get_status

Meeting Mode (Wireless)

bash

# Wireless connection for mobility
mcporter call sidecar-onestep.connect_device_async device_name="iPad Air" wired=false

Automation Integration

bash

# Use in scripts, Shortcuts, Raycast, Alfred, etc.
mcporter call sidecar-onestep.connect_device_async device_name="iPad Pro" wired=true

🤖 AI Assistant Integration

SidecarOneStep works seamlessly with AI assistants:

Natural Language Commands:

"List my iPad devices" → list_devices
"Connect to iPad Pro" → connect_device_async
"Connect iPad with wired mode" → connect_device_async wired=true
"Disconnect iPad" → disconnect_device
"Start web console" → start_http_server
"Check Sidecar status" → get_status

🔧 Troubleshooting

Issue: Device list is empty

Solution:

Ensure iPad and Mac use the same iCloud account
Ensure iPad supports Sidecar (2018 or later)
Ensure iPad is nearby and unlocked
Check "System Preferences" → "Sidecar"

Issue: Async connection job not found

Note: In stdio MCP mode, each call creates a new process. Use connect_device_async which now returns the complete status immediately, no need to call get_job_status.

Issue: MCP server not responding

Solution:

Verify app is installed: ls /Applications/SidecarOneStep.app
Check configuration: mcporter list sidecar-onestep
Restart mcporter daemon: mcporter daemon restart

🤖 AI 助手集成

SidecarOneStep 与 AI 助手无缝协作：

自然语言命令：

"列出我的 iPad 设备" → list_devices
"连接 iPad Pro" → connect_device_async
"用有线模式连接 iPad" → connect_device_async wired=true
"断开 iPad 连接" → disconnect_device
"启动 Web 控制台" → start_http_server
"查看 Sidecar 状态" → get_status
"开启虚拟显示器" → enable_virtual_display
"关闭虚拟显示器" → disable_virtual_display
"设置虚拟显示器尺寸" → set_virtual_display_size
"查看虚拟显示器状态" → virtual_display_status

🔧 故障排查

问题：设备列表为空

解决方案：

确认 iPad 和 Mac 使用同一 iCloud 账户
确认 iPad 支持 Sidecar（2018 年及之后）
确认 iPad 在附近并已解锁
检查"系统偏好设置" → "随航"

问题：异步任务状态 not_found

说明： stdio MCP 模式下，每次调用都会创建新进程。connect_device_async 现在会立即返回完整状态，无需调用 get_job_status。

问题：MCP 服务器未响应

解决方案：

确认应用已安装：ls /Applications/SidecarOneStep.app
检查配置：mcporter list sidecar-onestep
重启 mcporter daemon：mcporter daemon restart
