Cupertino MCP Code Explained by Mihaela

AI agents are useless for iOS development if they can't access Apple's documentation. Cupertino solves this — a local MCP server giving AI offline access to 90,000+ documentation pages across hundreds of frameworks.

In this Swift Academy episode, senior iOS architect Mihaela explains:

• How MCP (Model Context Protocol) works in practice
• Client-server communication structure for AI tooling
• Cupertino's architecture and implementation
• Why local-first AI tooling unlocks new development possibilities
• What's next for AI-assisted Swift development

About the guest: Mihaela builds cutting-edge AI tools for Apple's ecosystem, including Cupertino (offline Apple docs MCP server), iRelay (control Mac via iMessage), and concurrency-safe authentication middleware for Swift OpenAPI.

Essential viewing for iOS developers exploring AI agents in real development workflows.
