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., "@Satchel find my passport and remind me before it expires"
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.
Your records, readable by any AI agent. Carried by you.
Satchel is an open-source vault for personal records (IDs, vehicle papers, insurance, prescriptions, leases). Files stay in your own folders: a local folder, a NAS share, or a cloud-synced folder. Any MCP-capable agent (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude Code, local models) can search them, file new ones and remind you before anything expires. Switch agents whenever you like; nothing is locked in.
