Click on "Deploy Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type @ followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@OmniContext What's this YouTube video about: https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
Connect Claude to your life — without touching a terminal.
OmniContext is a local MCP server for Claude Desktop that connects Claude to the tools you already use — Notion and YouTube today, more on the way. Install it as a one-click extension, no terminal or API dashboard required.
You: Summarize this video for me: youtube.com/watch?v=xxxxxxxxxxx
Claude: [reads the transcript through OmniContext and replies instantly]
You: What does my Notion page "Q3 Roadmap" say about launch dates?
Claude: [searches your Notion, opens the page, answers from its content]Notion, without the copy-pasting — search page titles and pull full page content as clean markdown, right from the conversation.
YouTube videos, the moment you paste the link — Claude reads the transcript and can summarize, analyze, or answer questions about it instantly.
Clean transcript exports — when you want the raw text (for notes, research, or another tool), OmniContext saves it as a tidy .md file instead of dumping it into the chat.
More integrations are on the way — see the Roadmap.

No code, no terminal, no API dashboard.
Download the latest omnicontext.mcpb from the Releases tab.
Open Claude Desktop → the menu (☰) → File → Settings → Extensions.
Click Advanced settings then scroll down to Install Extension… and select it.
Using Notion? Paste your integration token into the form Claude Desktop shows you. That's the entire setup.
Try it in a chat:
"What's this YouTube video about: <link>"
"Read my Notion page: <link>"
Note: your Notion token is stored encrypted by your OS (Keychain on macOS, Credential Manager on Windows) — never in a plain text file. If you don't need Notion, skip it; the YouTube tools work with zero setup.
For running the server from source, contributing, or wiring it into Claude Code instead of Claude Desktop.
git clone <your-repo-url>
cd omnicontext
npm install
npm run build # compiles TypeScript -> dist/
npm test # full suite, incl. live smoke tests
npm run pack # builds omnicontext.mcpb locallyRegister it with Claude Code:
claude mcp add --transport stdio omnicontext \
--env NOTION_TOKEN=your_notion_token \
-- node /absolute/path/to/omnicontext/dist/index.jsRun it directly during development:
npm run devDebug tool calls with the official MCP Inspector:
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector node dist/index.jsTool | What it does |
| Reads a Notion page (URL or ID) and returns it as markdown |
| Searches page titles across everything shared with the integration |
| Fetches a YouTube video's transcript as plain text, for in-chat analysis |
| Saves a video's full transcript to a local |
OmniContext is an early MVP — the foundation is in place, and the integrations list is just getting started.
YouTube transcripts (in-chat + file export)
Notion (internal token, read-only)
One-click .mcpb packaging for Claude Desktop
Notion OAuth — one-click connect, no more manual tokens or sharing pages by hand
Discord integration
Telegram integration
More integrations, one context source at a time
OmniContext runs entirely on your machine. It talks directly to Notion's and YouTube's own APIs — there is no OmniContext backend, no analytics, and no middleman server that sees your data.
Issues and pull requests are welcome. If you're adding a new integration, follow the existing pattern in src/integrations/<name>/ — each one is self-contained and registers its own tools without touching the core server.

MIT — free to use, modify, and self-host.
Built on the Model Context Protocol.
Reads a Notion page's content as markdown. The page must be shared with this integration first (open the page in Notion, click Share, add the integration).
Inputs: page (required).
Searches page titles across every Notion page shared with this integration, returning each match's title, ID, and URL.
Inputs: query (required).
Health check — confirms OmniContext is running and returns its version.
Inputs: no named parameters.
Fetches the transcript/captions of a YouTube video as plain text. No login or setup required — just paste a video link or ID.
Inputs: url (required), lang.
Fetches a YouTube video's transcript and writes it to a local .md or .txt file, returning the file path. Use this when the user wants the full transcript exported for later reading, rather than reproduced in the chat.
Inputs: url (required), lang, destination.

Scored across 5 tools
All tools have clearly distinct purposes: Notion page reading and searching, a health check, and YouTube transcript retrieval and saving. No overlap or ambiguity.
Tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern with snake_case (notion_get_page, notion_search, youtube_get_transcript, youtube_save_transcript) except for 'ping', which is a standard health check name and does not disrupt consistency.
With 5 tools covering two distinct domains (Notion and YouTube) plus a health check, the count is well-scoped and appropriate for the server's purpose.
The Notion integration is limited to reading and searching, missing create/update/delete operations. YouTube tools only handle transcripts, lacking search or video metadata. Significant gaps exist for full workflow coverage.
