Overview

What is ๐Ÿ“ MCP Notes?

๐Ÿ“ MCP Notes is a note-taking application built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP). It lets users record and view complex notes and tasks while interacting with AI models, without creating project files or making notes public. It requires an AWS DynamoDB database for storage.

How to use ๐Ÿ“ MCP Notes?

Run directly via npx -p mcp-notes mcp-notes-server --dynamodb "<connection_string>" or bunx. Configure your MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop, Cline) with the command and DynamoDB connection string. A separate web server is available at npx -p mcp-notes mcp-notes-web-server and accessible at http://localhost:3100.

Key features of ๐Ÿ“ MCP Notes

  • Dual server: MCP server for AI use and web server for manual UI.
  • AI-powered note recording through function calls.
  • Full CRUD operations: create, read, update, delete notes.
  • Secure storage in AWS DynamoDB.
  • Independent from project files; keeps personal notes private.
  • Flexible authentication via connection string or environment variables.

Use cases of ๐Ÿ“ MCP Notes

  • Record personal thoughts and inspirations during AI chat sessions.
  • Manage meeting notes and tasks without polluting your project repository.
  • Create and retrieve notes on the fly while using Claude Desktop or Cline.
  • View and edit notes through a web interface alongside AI interactions.

Frequently asked questions

1

What models are supported with ๐Ÿ“ MCP Notes?

Any model that supports function calls and your client supports MCP. Tested models include Claude 3.5, Gemini 1.5/2.0, GPTโ€‘4, Mistral Large, Grokโ€‘2, and DeepSeek Chat.

2

Does ๐Ÿ“ MCP Notes require an internet connection or cloud service?

Yes, it requires an AWS account and DynamoDB for storing notes. AWS offers a generous free tier for DynamoDB.

3

How do I provide AWS credentials?

Use a DynamoDB connection string: `dynamodb://<access_key>:<secret_key>@<region>/<table>`, or set environment variables `AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID` and `AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` and supply the URI without credentials.

4

Are there any limitations in MCP clients?

Cody (VS Code) currently does not support tool calls; you must use the web interface to manage notes and can only mention notes as resources. Claude Desktop and Cline have full tool-calling functionality. Resources are not working in Cline.

5

What MCP tools are available?

Four tools: `listNotes` (optional tag filter), `getNote` (by ID), `writeNote` (requires id, title, summary, tags, content), and `deleteNote` (by ID).
