Overview

What is Anytype MCP Server?

The Anytype MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol server that enables AI assistants to interact with Anytype's API through natural language. It converts Anytype’s OpenAPI specification into MCP tools, allowing users to manage their knowledge base conversationally.

How to use Anytype MCP Server?

First, obtain an API key from Anytype app settings or via the command npx -y @anyproto/anytype-mcp get-key. Then configure your MCP client by setting the OPENAPI_MCP_HEADERS environment variable with your key and the required Anytype-Version header. For custom API base URLs, set ANYTYPE_API_BASE_URL. Alternatively, install the package globally with npm install -g @anyproto/anytype-mcp.
