What is the Nuclino MCP Server?
Connect your Nuclino account to your AI agent and seamlessly interact with your company's unified workspace for knowledge, docs, and projects.
What you can do
- Teams & Workspaces — Rapidly list all teams you are part of, and enumerate the nested workspaces and collections to understand your organization's hierarchy.
- Search & Query — Perform global fuzzy searches using
search_itemsto track down specific documents, notes, or project pages across the entire knowledge base. - Read Items & Files — Read the exact content configuration of any item (document) via
get_item, and list attachments or files uploaded to the platform. - Record Creation — Instantly create new items natively inside your workspace using natural language.
- Telemetrics — Enumerate members and structural fields within your Nuclino domain to keep the agent aware of context and owners.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Nuclino Personal API Key
- Start querying your company wiki and project trackers from Claude, Cursor, or your preferred AI client
Who is this for?
- Knowledge Managers — quickly search the internal wiki, read past guidelines, and append meeting notes to workspaces automatically.
- Engineering Teams — access technical documentation and specs without leaving your IDE.
- Project Managers — track deliverables, create new planning documents, and monitor active users.

Frequently asked questions
How can I explore the hierarchy of my company's Nuclino configuration?
Your AI agent can progressively drill down by invoking list_teams, taking those IDs into list_workspaces, checking the clusters via list_collections, and finally dumping the granular content using list_items.
Can the agent perform global searches if I don't know the workspace?
Yes. Instead of manually parsing directories, ask the agent to invoke the search_items tool. It queries all permissible areas on Nuclino simultaneously and returns exact contextual matches within seconds.
Can I automatically append meeting notes as a brand new document?
Absolutely. Once an AI process finishes an important chat, use the create_item tool to generate a fresh target URL holding the transcribed content straight into any specified workspace.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
