Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the OneNote MCP Server?
Empower your conversational AI with omniscient access to your Microsoft OneNote digital brain. Transform how you organize information by linking an AI agent capable of drilling into deep notebooks, parsing hidden sections, explicitly searching across thousands of pages organically, and seamlessly capturing new notes from the chat interface without switching tabs.
What you can do
- Deep Search & Indexing — Invoke robust global searches discovering specific keywords across all active Notebook domains instantly without waiting for native indexing.
- Page Content Extraction — Drill cleanly into specific distinct Pages fetching raw text securely preventing you from hunting through nested hierarchies manually.
- Workspace Navigation — List structural trees mapping your distinct Notebooks, Section Groups, and Sections cleanly traversing your organizational logic entirely.
- Content Appending — Dispatch text blocks, parsed summaries, or quick thoughts into existing notebook sections cleanly right from the LLM prompt conversationally.
How it works
- Enable this explicit local MCP integration
- Provide an active Microsoft Graph Access Token scoped to OneNote
- Interface with your notebooks by writing pure text commands within Claude or your agent
Who is this for?
- Project Managers — actively pulling meeting notes out of deep archives validating updates effortlessly within seconds.
- Researchers & Writers — traversing sprawling personal knowledge bases seeking obscurely filed citations instantly by conversing.
- Executive Assistants — appending rapid contextual summaries generated by AI straight back into executive notebook planners securely.
Built-in capabilities (7)
Use this to dive deeper into a container's permissions or basic configurations. Get detailed properties of a specific notebook
By default, OneNote pages are serialized using complex Microsoft Graph HTML formats with proprietary tags. Use this to ingest the actual written text or data. Retrieve the exact raw HTML content of a single page
Identifies primary containers necessary to navigate the hierarchical structure of OneNote. List all Microsoft OneNote notebooks
Results include the bare page metadata (IDs, titles, timestamps), but notably DO NOT include the heavy internal raw HTML content. Used for structural indexing. List all pages contained within a specific section
Used for navigating highly complex, multi-layered textbook hierarchies inside OneNote. List section groups inside a specific notebook
Sections act as the folders containing the raw pages. Requires passing the parent Notebook ID to query the correct topological children. List all sections contained within a specific notebook
Useful when navigating deep, unindexed trees where discovering a particular keyword manually would exceed logic boundaries. Search page contents globally across all available notebooks
Why Windsurf?
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple OneNote tool calls autonomously. query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 7 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.

Frequently asked questions
Can the integration delete entire extensive notebooks or important local sections?
No. The integration exclusively binds heavily to Reading methods (list, search, get) mapped safely alongside minimal Write interactions specifically scoped to Appending fresh notes. Destructive end-points are intrinsically restricted protecting vital long-term data persistently.
Does it parse images contained inside OneNote native pages automatically?
Currently, fetching Page contents operates exclusively translating returned DOM hierarchies returning raw string-based text bounds flawlessly. Purely visual bitmaps or native handwritten encodings skip the explicit parsing stream avoiding LLM hallucinations fundamentally.
Why does OneNote demand a generic Graph Access Token explicitly here?
Microsoft explicitly deprecated discrete independent silo APIs unifying all native core tenant structures explicitly over the single Microsoft Graph perimeter gateway. OneNote resources are canonically navigated traversing this exact Graph endpoint hierarchy natively.
How does Windsurf discover MCP tools?
Windsurf reads the mcp_config.json file on startup and connects to each configured server via Streamable HTTP. Tools are listed in the MCP panel and available to Cascade automatically.
Can Cascade chain multiple MCP tool calls?
Yes. Cascade is an agentic system. it can plan and execute multi-step workflows, calling several tools in sequence to accomplish complex tasks without manual prompting between steps.
Does Windsurf support multiple MCP servers?
Yes. Add as many servers as needed in mcp_config.json. Each server's tools appear in the MCP panel and Cascade can use tools from different servers in a single flow.
Server not connecting
Check Settings → MCP for the server status. Try toggling it off and on.
