Show HN: Pomeroy v1, give any AI assistant secure access to native macOS apps

Pomeroy v1 now lets users connect any AI assistant—including Claude, Cursor, Codex, VSCode, Perplexity, and Raycast—to securely access native macOS apps, expanding beyond its initial Claude-only support. The tool ensures data stays on the Mac, with local-only access to user-approved apps and tools, and no data is transmitted through external data centers.

When I launched Pomeroy last week, I knew I was solving a problem, but I didn't understand the scale! Pretty overwhelmed by the response, and have worked over the weekend to make it EVEN better...

So... what could better than giving Claude secure access to your native Apple MacOS apps you ask?.. well, how about connecting ANY AI assistant?

That's right... Pomeroy v1 is here, and it's no longer Claude-specific. You can now connect ANY AI assistant to it - Claude, Cursor, Codex, VSCode, Perplexity or even Raycast... the world is your oyster!

Same principles apply, nothing leaves your Mac - your assistant gets local-only access to only the apps/tools you allow, your data isn't getting piggybacked through any data-centres.
