note2it MCP - AI Agent Knowledge Management for Hermes Agent

Give your AI agents a persistent notebook system with meeting transcripts, a link graph, and precise, undoable edits.

What It Does

note2it is a notes workspace designed for human and AI agent collaboration:

  • Notebooks, sections, and nested pages - hierarchical organization
  • Meeting pages - transcripts and structured summaries live on the meeting's page, so an agent reads them like any other page
  • AI agent access - search, read, and make targeted, undoable edits
  • Wiki-link graph - backlinks and outgoing links between pages
  • Fast slash-command editor - keyboard-first for humans
  • MCP-native - Claude, ChatGPT, Perplexity and other MCP clients connect directly or through a local bridge

For teams managing knowledge work, this replaces scattered note pages, meeting notes, and task lists with a single, AI-accessible knowledge base.

Quick Setup

Prerequisites

  • note2it account: sign up at note2it.com. The AI-assistant connector is included on the Premium and Pro plans (not Standard).
  • Node.js 18 or newer for the local bridge (npx ships with it).
  • Personal API token: in note2it open Settings → AI assistants and create a token. It starts with n2i_ and is shown once. Pick read-only (notes:read) or read and write (notes:write).

Option A - Local bridge (used by Hermes Agent)

The bridge is a small stdio process: your MCP client launches it, and it forwards every MCP message to note2it's hosted server at https://app.note2it.com/api/mcp/mcp. The client sees the same tools the hosted server exposes.

hermes mcp add note2it -- npx -y @note2it/mcp

Package: @note2it/mcp. Set NOTE2IT_API_KEY to your token.

Or manual config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "note2it": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@note2it/mcp"],
      "env": {
        "NOTE2IT_API_KEY": "n2i_..."
      }
    }
  }
}

Environment variables:

Variable Required Description
NOTE2IT_API_KEY yes Personal API token (n2i_...). NOTE2IT_TOKEN also works.
NOTE2IT_URL no MCP endpoint. Defaults to https://app.note2it.com/api/mcp/mcp. Must be https:// (http:// is accepted only for localhost).

Option B - Direct remote connection

Clients that support remote MCP servers can skip the package and the token entirely and connect to:

https://app.note2it.com/api/mcp/mcp

note2it documents this one-click path for Claude (web, desktop, mobile) and ChatGPT developer mode, which sign in with OAuth instead of pasting a key. Perplexity connects with the same endpoint using the token as an Authorization: Bearer header. For Hermes Agent, the stdio bridge in Option A is the supported path.

Tools

Read tools (notes:read scope):

Tool Description
note2it-search Full-text search across every page you can read, with notebook, section, tag and date filters
note2it-fetch Read one page by id or exact title, as Markdown or as a block outline with ids
note2it-browse Walk the notebook → section → page hierarchy
note2it-links Backlinks, outgoing links and graph neighbours around a page
note2it-tags Tag index with page counts and recent pages
note2it-list-templates List template pages and the fill-in fields each one has

Write tools (notes:write scope):

Tool Description
note2it-create-page Create a page from Markdown in a notebook and section
note2it-update-page Replace a page's title or content, or toggle its template flag
note2it-patch-page Edit part of a page without touching the rest
note2it-move-page Move a page between notebooks or sections, or reorder it
note2it-create-from-template Create a filled-in page from one of your templates
note2it-page-history List a page's saved revisions from assistant edits, and restore one
note2it-trash-page Move to trash or restore. Never deletes permanently
note2it-upload-image Import an image from a public https URL into the media library

The tool list comes from the server, so new note2it tools appear without updating the bridge package. There is no separate transcript or action-item tool: meeting transcripts and action items live on the meeting's page and are read with note2it-search and note2it-fetch.

Use Cases for Business Operators

1. Meeting Follow-Through

A meeting page carries the transcript plus the structured summary. An agent can read it, pull the action items, and draft the follow-up in the same pass.

Agent prompt: "Fetch yesterday's product review meeting page in note2it.
List every action item and draft the follow-up messages."

2. Persistent AI Memory

Unlike chat history that disappears, note2it gives your AI agents a permanent memory layer. Research, decisions, and context persist across sessions.

Agent prompt: "Search note2it for our Q2 marketing strategy discussion
from March and summarize the decisions we made."

3. Team Knowledge Base

A shared repository that both humans and AI agents read, write and maintain. Every assistant edit is a saved revision, so a bad write is restored with note2it-page-history rather than retyped.

4. Project Documentation

Project specs, meeting notes and decisions in one searchable, AI-accessible space, with note2it-move-page and note2it-browse keeping the structure usable as it grows.

Integration with CorpusIQ

note2it + CorpusIQ is a decision-support pipeline:

  1. CorpusIQ - pull the business numbers (revenue, traffic, pipeline) from connected systems, cited
  2. note2it - retrieve past decisions, context and meeting history
  3. AI agent - make recommendations with both the live numbers and the reasoning behind them

The agent sees current operational data and the historical decision context in one answer.

Pricing

The AI-assistant connector is included on the Premium and Pro plans. See note2it.com/en/pricing for current prices.

Limitations

  • The connector is not on the Standard plan; an unentitled plan returns HTTP 401 with a valid token.
  • A token can only do what its scope allows: a read-only token makes every write tool fail with a scope error.
  • The local bridge is new (npm v0.1.0, published Oct 30, 2026) - the tool surface is server-driven and may change without a package release.
  • Product name is spelled note2it, all lowercase.
