Tidesman: Native MCP server for Apple Container's Linux container workflows

- Tidesman is an open-source MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that connects AI assistants to Apple's Private Cloud Compute (PCC) infrastructure — Apple's system for running cloud-based AI on dedicated Apple Silicon servers. - MCP is an open protocol from Anthropic (late 2024) that lets LLMs interact with external tools and data — a universal plug-in standard for AI assistants. - Apple's PCC uses custom container runtimes (based on LinuxKit and specialized virtualization) that are poorly documented and largely opaque to developers. - Tidesman matters because it reverse-engineers parts of Apple's PCC container layer, giving developers a way to inspect and debug those containers through an AI assistant — an early example of bridging MCP directly into a proprietary cloud platform's operations.
