# Note Post MCP [![GitHub](https://img.shields.io/badge/GitHub-Go--555%2Fnote--post--mcp-blue?logo=github)](https://github.com/Go-555/note-post-mcp) The Universal MCP Server exposes tools for automated posting and draft saving to note.com. It reads Markdown files containing titles, body text, and tags, then publishes them to your note.com account using Playwright automation. ## Installation ### Prerequisites - Node.js 18+ - A note.com account - `note-state.json` authentication state file (obtained via `npm run login`) - Set `NOTE_POST_MCP_STATE_PATH` in your environment (optional, defaults to `~/.note-state.json`) ### Install from GitHub ```bash git clone https://github.com/Go-555/note-post-mcp.git cd note-post-mcp npm install npm run build ``` ### Install Playwright Browser ```bash npm run install-browser ``` This installs the Chromium browser required for automation. ### Get an authentication state file Run the login script to authenticate with note.com: ```bash npm run login ``` A browser window will open. Log in to note.com, then press Enter in the terminal. This creates a `~/.note-state.json` file containing your authentication state. Store this file securely and reference it via `NOTE_POST_MCP_STATE_PATH` or pass it as a parameter. ### Or install from npm (if published) ```bash npm install -g note-post-mcp ``` ## Setup: Claude Code (CLI) Use this one-liner (replace with your real values): ```bash claude mcp add Note Post MCP -s user -e NOTE_POST_MCP_STATE_PATH="/path/to/note-state.json" -- npx @gonuts555/note-post-mcp@latest ``` To remove: ```bash claude mcp remove Note Post MCP ``` ## Setup: Cursor Create `.cursor/mcp.json` in your client (do not commit it here): ```json { "mcpServers": { "note-post-mcp": { "command": "npx", "args": ["@gonuts555/note-post-mcp@latest"], "env": { "NOTE_POST_MCP_STATE_PATH": "/path/to/note-state.json" }, "autoStart": true } } } ``` ## Other Clients and Agents <details> <summary>VS Code</summary> Install via URI or CLI: ```bash code --add-mcp '{"name":"note-post-mcp","command":"npx","args":["@gonuts555/note-post-mcp@latest"],"env":{"NOTE_POST_MCP_STATE_PATH":"/path/to/note-state.json"}}' ``` </details> <details> <summary>Claude Desktop</summary> Add to your Claude Desktop configuration file (`claude_desktop_config.json`): ```json { "mcpServers": { "note-post-mcp": { "command": "npx", "args": ["@gonuts555/note-post-mcp@latest"], "env": { "NOTE_POST_MCP_STATE_PATH": "/path/to/note-state.json" } } } } ``` </details> <details> <summary>LM Studio</summary> - Command: `npx` - Args: `["@gonuts555/note-post-mcp@latest"]` - Env: `NOTE_POST_MCP_STATE_PATH=/path/to/note-state.json` </details> <details> <summary>Goose</summary> - Type: STDIO - Command: `npx` - Args: `@gonuts555/note-post-mcp@latest` - Enabled: true </details> <details> <summary>opencode</summary> Example `~/.config/opencode/opencode.json`: ```json { "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json", "mcp": { "note-post-mcp": { "type": "local", "command": ["npx", "@gonuts555/note-post-mcp@latest"], "enabled": true, "env": { "NOTE_POST_MCP_STATE_PATH": "/path/to/note-state.json" } } } } ``` </details> <details> <summary>Qodo Gen</summary> Add a new MCP and paste the standard JSON config from above. </details> <details> <summary>Windsurf</summary> Add the following to your Windsurf MCP configuration: ```json { "note-post-mcp": { "command": "npx", "args": ["@gonuts555/note-post-mcp@latest"], "env": { "NOTE_POST_MCP_STATE_PATH": "/path/to/note-state.json" } } } ``` </details> ## Setup: Codex (TOML) Add the following to your Codex TOML configuration. Example (Serena): ```toml [mcp_servers.serena] command = "uvx" args = ["--from", "git+https://github.com/oraios/serena", "serena", "start-mcp-server", "--context", "codex"] ``` This server (minimal): ```toml [mcp_servers.note-post-mcp] command = "npx" args = ["@gonuts555/note-post-mcp@latest"] # Optional environment variables: # NOTE_POST_MCP_STATE_PATH = "/path/to/note-state.json" # NOTE_POST_MCP_TIMEOUT = "180000" # MCP_NAME = "note-post-mcp" ``` ## Configuration (Env) - `NOTE_POST_MCP_STATE_PATH`: Path to the note.com authentication state file (default: `~/.note-state.json`) - `NOTE_POST_MCP_TIMEOUT`: Timeout in milliseconds for browser operations (default: `180000`) - `MCP_NAME`: Server name override (default: `note-post-mcp`) ## Available Tools ### publish_note Publishes an article to note.com from a Markdown file. - **Inputs**: - `markdown_path` (string, required): Path to the Markdown file containing title, body, and tags - `thumbnail_path` (string, optional): Path to the thumbnail image file - `state_path` (string, optional): Path to the note.com authentication state file - `screenshot_dir` (string, optional): Directory to save screenshots - `timeout` (number, optional): Timeout in milliseconds - **Outputs**: JSON object with: - `success` (boolean): Whether the operation succeeded - `url` (string): URL of the published article - `screenshot` (string): Path to the screenshot - `message` (string): Success message ### save_draft Saves a draft article to note.com from a Markdown file. - **Inputs**: - `markdown_path` (string, required): Path to the Markdown file containing title, body, and tags - `thumbnail_path` (string, optional): Path to the thumbnail image file - `state_path` (string, optional): Path to the note.com authentication state file - `screenshot_dir` (string, optional): Directory to save screenshots - `timeout` (number, optional): Timeout in milliseconds - **Outputs**: JSON object with: - `success` (boolean): Whether the operation succeeded - `url` (string): URL of the draft editor page - `screenshot` (string): Path to the screenshot - `message` (string): Success message ## Markdown File Format Your Markdown file should follow this format: ```markdown --- title: Your Article Title tags: - tag1 - tag2 --- Your article body content goes here. You can include URLs and they will be automatically expanded by note.com. ``` Alternatively, you can use array notation for tags: ```markdown --- title: Your Article Title tags: [tag1, tag2] --- Your article body content goes here. ``` Or use a simple `#` heading for the title if no front matter is present: ```markdown # Your Article Title Your article body content goes here. ``` ### Body Content Details The body content supports the following Markdown elements: **Front Matter Format:** - All lines after the closing `---` of the front matter are treated as body content - Trailing blank lines are automatically trimmed **Heading Format:** - The first line starting with `# ` is treated as the title (not included in the body) - Headings with `## ` or `### ` are treated as part of the body content **Code Blocks:** - Must have a closing fence (```) - Language specification is preserved - Entire code blocks are pasted as a unit **Image Insertion:** - Use relative paths from the Markdown file: `![description](./images/sample.png)` - Supports PNG, JPEG, and GIF formats - Local image files are automatically uploaded **Lists and Quotes:** - Bullet lists (`-`) and numbered lists (`1.`) are automatically continued by note.com - Block quotes (`>`) are also automatically continued - Markdown symbols are processed automatically after the first line **Horizontal Rules:** - `---` in the body content is correctly processed as a horizontal rule - Blank lines immediately following horizontal rules are automatically skipped **URL Single Lines:** - URLs on their own line are automatically expanded into link cards by note.com - YouTube and other embeds are also automatically processed ## Example invocation (MCP tool call) ```json { "name": "publish_note", "arguments": { "markdown_path": "/path/to/article.md", "thumbnail_path": "/path/to/thumbnail.png", "state_path": "/path/to/note-state.json" } } ``` For saving a draft: ```json { "name": "save_draft", "arguments": { "markdown_path": "/path/to/draft.md" } } ``` ## Troubleshooting - **Authentication errors**: Ensure your `note-state.json` file is valid and up-to-date. You may need to regenerate it if your session has expired. - **Ensure Node 18+**: Run `node -v` to verify your Node.js version. - **Build errors**: Run `npm install` and `npm run build` to ensure all dependencies are installed and TypeScript is compiled. - **Local runs**: After building, test locally with `npx note-post-mcp` (it will wait for MCP messages on stdin). - **Inspect publish artifacts**: Run `npm pack --dry-run` to see what files will be included in the published package. - **Timeout issues**: If operations are timing out, increase `NOTE_POST_MCP_TIMEOUT` or pass a larger `timeout` parameter. - **Playwright browser not installed**: Run `npm run install-browser` or `npx playwright install chromium` to install the required browser. ## References - [MCP SDK Documentation](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/docs/sdks) - [MCP Architecture](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/docs/learn/architecture) - [MCP Server Concepts](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/docs/learn/server-concepts) - [MCP Server Specification](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/2025-06-18/server/index) - [Playwright Documentation](https://playwright.dev/) ## Name Consistency & Troubleshooting - Always use CANONICAL_ID (`note-post-mcp`) for identifiers and keys. - Use CANONICAL_DISPLAY (`Note Post MCP`) only for UI labels. - Do not mix different names across clients. ### Consistency Matrix - npm package name → `note-post-mcp` - Binary name → `note-post-mcp` - MCP server name (SDK metadata) → `note-post-mcp` - Env default MCP_NAME → `note-post-mcp` - Client registry key → `note-post-mcp` - UI label → `Note Post MCP` ### Conflict Cleanup - Remove any old entries with different names and re-add with `note-post-mcp`. - Ensure global `.mcp.json` or client registries only use `note-post-mcp` for keys. - **Cursor**: Configure in the UI only. This project does not include `.cursor/mcp.json`. ### Example - **Correct**: `"mcpServers": { "note-post-mcp": { "command": "npx", "args": ["@gonuts555/note-post-mcp@latest"] } }` - **Incorrect**: Using different keys like `"NotePost"` or `"note_post"` (will conflict with `note-post-mcp`) ## License MIT
