MarginNote MCP Server for interacting programmatically with the database

Hi,

I absolutely love what you have done with the new AI tools, and have been purchasing many credits.

However, there are use cases where I would prefer to access these tools (such as edit card, create card, read mindmap, etc.) via Claude Code. Using an agent that lives outside of MarginNote and can therefore interact with my other MacOS applications as well.

Since you have already built the tools for use with the integrated AI, I would like to ask you to expose them as well via an MCP server. This would open up many additional use cases and cross-application workflows.

I do not think it would cannibalize use of the integrated AI features, since these are super powerful and convenient already. In particular, even if I had the ability to access MN via an MCP server I would still use and pay for the integrated AI when using MN on iOS.

Thanks for considering.

Thank you. I really think this would really be a massively beneficial feature for power users.

Just following up here. Still really would love it if you could provide an mcp server…

Hello,

Thank you for following up. We’re pleased to let you know that the latest version of MarginNote includes MN CLI, which allows you to connect MarginNote directly to the latest AI agents.

Please update to the latest version to try it out. If you need any assistance setting it up, feel free to contact us.

Kind regards,
MarginNote Support Team

Great to hear @mono .

However, this does not seem to be available in the App store yet, correct? The last update was a couple weeks ago.

Also: Can you please point me to a documentation / CLI reference?

Hello,

I sincerely apologize for my inaccurate wording and the misunderstanding it caused. By “the latest version,” I was referring to the test version, not the official version currently available on the App Store.

This version has not been officially released yet. We expect to launch it soon, and once it becomes available, you’ll be able to control MarginNote through AI Agents. The relevant documentation and CLI reference will also be provided upon the official release.

We’re very sorry for the confusion, and we appreciate your understanding and patience.

Kind regards,
MarginNote Support Team

All good, thanks for clarifying.

I’m amazed at the recent pace of development and I think the direction is perfect.

Looking forward to using the CLI once it is released.

Kind regards

Hi Mono, I haven’t got any app update on my Mac. Can you send any link to download the latest update or everything should be available on the App Store? And, can you send a quick on how to do it?

Thanks!

Hi Cesar! The AI version, CLI/MCP, is still in beta testing and may be released sometime after October 20. Once it’s available, the App Store version will be updated directly, so please keep an eye out for updates there. Thanks for your patience!
