SyncPen MCP Server
by airbuzz
SyncPen MCP Server lets an AI agent work inside a live SyncPen writing workspace — searching, reading, creating, editing, organizing, and publishing documents, plus collaborating via suggestions and comments.
Search & read: full-text search across titles/body, read documents as markdown, list folders/documents.
Create & edit: create documents (optionally in folders), update title/content, move/delete documents, manage folders (create, rename, move, delete with nesting).
Collaborate with human approval: propose edits as pending suggestions (with anchored offsets or snippets), list pending/all suggestions, read comment threads, reply to comments (with @mentions), resolve comment threads.
Publish & integrate: publish documents to WordPress, Ghost, or Sanity (auto-select connection or pass connectionId), list connected CMS targets.
Workspace awareness: get a time-ordered feed of recent changes (filterable by time/folder), find related documents based on co-access and /editor links.
External integrations: search/read Google Drive files, search recent world news, list/read Slack channels, search/read Notion pages.
Team support: list team spaces, scope operations (like publishing or connection listing) to a team via teamId/documentId.
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., "@SyncPen MCP Server List all documents in my 'Projects' folder."
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.
Syncpen MCP Server
Connect Claude Code (or any MCP client) to your Syncpen workspace — the writing workspace your AI can actually write in. Your agent can search, read, draft, suggest, comment, organize, and publish in the same live documents you edit.
Don't have an account yet? Create one free at syncpen.io.
What is Syncpen great at?
Build a knowledge base your AI maintains — capture notes, docs, and clips, then let your agent organize, cross-link, and keep it current.
Write long-form where you publish — articles, docs, whole books; your agent drafts, you approve, and one call ships it to WordPress, Ghost, or Sanity.
Your agents and you on one project — everyone works in the same live documents; every edit is shared, legible, and attributed.
Edits with a paper trail — agents propose changes as signed suggestions you accept or reject. Nothing changes silently.
Research → draft → ship without leaving your tools — clip sources, let your AI draft from them, publish.

Quick Setup
1. Generate an API Key
Go to Settings → API Keys in your Syncpen account
Enable API Access
Create a new API key
Copy the key (you'll only see it once!)
2. Configure Claude Code
Add to your MCP configuration file (~/.mcp.json or project-level .mcp.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"syncpen": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "syncpen-mcp"],
"env": {
"SYNCPEN_API_KEY": "sp_your_api_key_here"
}
}
}
}That's it! Claude Code will automatically download and run the MCP server.

"What's changed in my workspace since yesterday?"
Development
For contributing or running from source:
git clone https://github.com/airbuzz/syncpen-mcp.git
cd syncpen-mcp
npm install
npm run build # or: npm run dev (watch mode)Point your MCP config at the built entry (node /path/to/syncpen-mcp/dist/index.js). It uses the production API by default; set SYNCPEN_API_URL only to target a local instance.

TDQS
A3.7/5.0
Scored across 21 tools
Disambiguation5/5
Each tool targets a distinct action on a specific resource (document, folder, comment, suggestion, etc.). Overlap is minimal and well-handled by descriptions, e.g., syncpen_update vs syncpen_suggest_edit are clearly separated by intent.
Naming Consistency5/5
All tools follow the pattern syncpen_verb_noun in snake_case, consistently using actions like create, delete, list, read, move, etc. This makes it easy for an agent to predict tool names.
Tool Count4/5
21 tools is slightly above the typical range but justified by the server's broad feature set covering documents, folders, comments, suggestions, publishing, search, and analytics. Each tool serves a clear purpose.
Completeness4/5
The tool surface covers the core document lifecycle (CRUD, search, folders, comments, suggestions, publishing). Minor gaps exist, such as no dedicated tool for retrieving document metadata separately from content, but overall it is well-rounded.
