Phonebook MCP Server

A self-hosted, open-source alternative to Emerge Tools Snapshots: harvest your existing Compose @Preview s and SwiftUI Preview s into a browsable, static HTML gallery - no SaaS account required. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

People who work with android, design systems and ios and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.
