Environment Name Required Notes APPLE_MESSAGES_ALLOW_WRITES No Register the mutating tools. Off by default, and the gate decides whether the write tools exist at all rather than merely refusing — an agent with writes off cannot see them. APPLE_MESSAGES_ALLOW_CODES No Register apple_messages_find_codes, which reads one-time codes out of recent messages. Its own gate rather than allowWrites: it is a read, and the one read most worth an explicit decision. APPLE_MESSAGES_ALLOW_FILE_SEND No Let apple_messages_send_message attach a local file. Off by default even with writes on, because a path argument is a way to send anything the server can read.
Tools show up when the registry metadata or the repository README lists them. GitHub enrichment fills this in when a token is configured.
