πŸš€ Quick Start

Step 1: Enable LogSeq API

  1. Settings β†’ Features β†’ Check "Enable HTTP APIs server"

  2. Click the API button (πŸ”Œ) in LogSeq β†’ "Start server"

  3. Generate API token: API panel β†’ "Authorization tokens" β†’ Create new

Step 2: Add to Claude (No Installation Required!)

βš™οΈ Prerequisites

LogSeq Setup

  • LogSeq installed and running

  • HTTP APIs server enabled (Settings β†’ Features)

  • API server started (πŸ”Œ button β†’ "Start server")

  • API token generated (API panel β†’ Authorization tokens)

System Requirements

  • uv Python package manager

  • MCP-compatible client (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, etc.)


πŸ”§ Configuration

Environment Variables

  • LOGSEQ_API_TOKEN (required): Your LogSeq API token

  • LOGSEQ_API_URL (optional): Server URL (default: http://localhost:12315)

Alternative Setup Methods

Using .env file

# .env LOGSEQ_API_TOKEN=your_token_here LOGSEQ_API_URL=http://localhost:12315

System environment variables

export LOGSEQ_API_TOKEN=your_token_here export LOGSEQ_API_URL=http://localhost:12315

πŸ” Verification & Testing

Test LogSeq Connection

uv run --with mcp-logseq python -c " from mcp_logseq.logseq import LogSeq api = LogSeq(api_key='your_token') print(f'Connected! Found {len(api.list_pages())} pages') "

Verify MCP Registration

claude mcp list # Should show mcp-logseq

Debug with MCP Inspector

npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector uv run --with mcp-logseq mcp-logseq

πŸ› Troubleshooting

Common Issues

"LOGSEQ_API_TOKEN environment variable required"

  • βœ… Enable HTTP APIs in Settings β†’ Features

  • βœ… Click πŸ”Œ button β†’ "Start server" in LogSeq

  • βœ… Generate token in API panel β†’ Authorization tokens

  • βœ… Verify token in your configuration

"spawn uv ENOENT" (Claude Desktop)

Claude Desktop can't find uv. Use the full path:

which uv # Find your uv location

Update config with full path:

{ "mcpServers": { "mcp-logseq": { "command": "/Users/username/.local/bin/uv", "args": ["run", "--with", "mcp-logseq", "mcp-logseq"], "env": { "LOGSEQ_API_TOKEN": "your_token_here" } } } }

Common uv locations:

  • Curl install: ~/.local/bin/uv

  • Homebrew: /opt/homebrew/bin/uv

  • Pip install: Check with which uv

Connection Issues

  • βœ… Confirm LogSeq is running

  • βœ… Verify API server is started (not just enabled)

  • βœ… Check port 12315 is accessible

  • βœ… Test with verification command above
