A model context protocol server that connects to Anki through AnkiConnect
A server to integrate with Anki via the AnkiConnect plugin
This is a TypeScript-based MCP server that integrates with Anki via the AnkiConnect plugin. It demonstrates core MCP concepts by providing:
anki://decks/{id}
URIsanki://models/{id}
URIslistDecks
- Get names of all deckslistModels
- Get names of all note modelsgetModel
- Get details of a specific note modeladdNote
- Create a single note
addNotes
- Create multiple notes in bulk
Install dependencies:
npm install
Build the server:
npm run build
For development with auto-rebuild:
npm run watch
To use with Claude Desktop, add the server config:
On MacOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
On Windows: %APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"anki-mcp": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["d:\\anki-mcp-server\\build\\index.js"]
}
}
}
Since MCP servers communicate over stdio, debugging can be challenging. We recommend using the MCP Inspector, which is available as a package script:
npm run inspector
The Inspector will provide a URL to access debugging tools in your browser.
{ "mcpServers": { "anki-mcp-server": { "command": "node", "args": [ "d:\\anki-mcp-server\\build\\index.js" ] } } }
