About Reflect MCP Server
Connect your Reflect account securely to your AI agent via their developer API. This integration grants your AI the ability to directly explore your networked thought graph, lookup personal notes, manage book highlights, and append daily thoughts asynchronously from your conversation interface.
Cline operates autonomously inside VS Code — it reads your codebase, plans a strategy, and executes multi-step tasks including Reflect tool calls without waiting for prompts between steps. Connect 10 tools through the Vinkius and Cline can fetch data, generate code, and commit changes in a single autonomous run.
What you can do
- Explore Your Graph — Direct your AI to investigate connected insights within your Reflect graphs (
list_graphs). Request lists of your notes (list_notes) or retrieve the specific Markdown content of a single note (get_note). - Capture Ideas Instantly — Ask the agent to establish new permanent notes (
create_note) or quickly dump conversational insights, summaries, and tasks straight into your daily note (append_daily_note). - Analyze Connections — Instruct the AI to map out your thoughts by retrieving all backlinks pointing to a specific subject (
get_backlinks). - Save Links & Books — Let your AI automatically bookmark URLs (
create_link), browse your saved bookmarks (list_links), or explore your imported library of book highlights (list_books).
The Reflect MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Cline in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
