# Cosense MCP Server
A MCP server for [Cosense](https://cosen.se).
## Tools
The following tools are available for interacting with Cosense pages:
- `get_page`: Retrieves a page with the specified title
- `list_pages`: Lists available pages in the resources
- `search_pages`: Searches for pages containing the specified query string
- `insert_lines`: Inserts text after a specified line in a page
## MCP Client Configuration
The following environment variables are required:
- `COSENSE_PROJECT_NAME`: Project name
- `COSENSE_SID`: Session ID for authentication
- Required for writing to pages and reading private pages
- Handle with care as it contains sensitive information
- For more details, see [scrapboxlab/connect.sid](https://scrapbox.io/scrapboxlab/connect.sid)
### Run from npm registry
#### JSR registry configuration
This package depends on [@cosense/std](https://jsr.io/@cosense/std) and [@cosense/types](https://jsr.io/@cosense/types) which are hosted on JSR. Before using npx, you need to configure the JSR registry globally:
For Linux/macOS:
```bash
echo "@jsr:registry=https://npm.jsr.io" >> ~/.npmrc
```
For Windows (PowerShell):
```powershell
echo "@jsr:registry=https://npm.jsr.io" >> $env:USERPROFILE\.npmrc
```
Or if you prefer not to modify global settings, run from source instead (see the section below)
#### Client json configuration
After configuring JSR registry, configure your MCP client:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"cosense-mcp-server": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@yosider/cosense-mcp-server"],
"env": {
"COSENSE_PROJECT_NAME": "your_project_name",
"COSENSE_SID": "your_sid"
}
}
}
}
```
### Run from source
#### Clone and build
```bash
git clone https://github.com/yosider/cosense-mcp-server.git
cd cosense-mcp-server
npm install
npm run build
```
#### Client json configuration
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"cosense-mcp-server": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "/path/to/cosense-mcp-server"],
"env": {
"COSENSE_PROJECT_NAME": "your_project_name",
"COSENSE_SID": "your_sid"
}
}
}
}
```
### Debugging
Since MCP servers communicate over stdio, debugging can be challenging. We recommend using the [MCP Inspector](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/inspector), which is available as a package script:
```bash
npm run inspect
```
The Inspector will provide a URL to access debugging tools in your browser.
