Works with modern AI clients that support MCP, including ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and more.
Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.
No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.
Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.
Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.
One switch stops every agent. Instantly.
One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.
Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.
Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.
Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.
Curated set · 1 capability
We ship only the actions that matter.

1 capability in this set.
Part of 1 available through Markdown Task Extractor.
- 01
Extract markdown todos
This capability scans a specific local directory to find all Markdown checkboxes. It identifies both open and completed tasks across your entire folder of notes.
Real work
What teams actually run
Daily Planning
Ask your AI to look at your daily notes and summarize everything you need to do today.
Project Audits
Have your agent check a project folder to see how many tasks remain unfinished.
Task Cleanup
Use the AI to find all completed tasks across your vault to clear out old notes.
Tag-based Filtering
Ask your agent to find specific tasks marked with custom hashtags like #urgent or #todo.
Automate a task
Put Markdown Task Extractor to work on one thing.
Step-by-step automations your AI runs through this Connector: the workflow, the prompts to start with, and the exact capabilities behind each move.
One connector, every AI
Markdown Task Extractor works with the most popular AI clients.
These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Le ChatBuilding your own app? The connector is yours to use.
You don't need a client to put Markdown Task Extractor to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.

Preview access · not provider authentication
The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Markdown Task Extractor, so you can see the experience inside your AI.
It does not authenticate your account with Markdown Task Extractor. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

Who it's for

- 02

FAQ
Questions Markdown Task Extractor owners ask.
- 01
What note-taking apps does this work with?
It works with any app that saves notes as Markdown files, such as Obsidian, Logseq, or Notion exports.
- 02
How fast is the scanning process?
The MCP is built for speed and can scan over 1,000 files in less than 50ms.
- 03
Do I need to configure anything special?
No. You just need to give your AI client the absolute path to the folder where your notes are stored.
- 04
Can it see tasks I have already finished?
Yes. It identifies both open tasks marked with - [ ] and completed tasks marked with - [x].
- 05
Does this work with my local files?
Yes. This MCP is designed to scan your local directories directly.
- 06
Does it work with massive Obsidian vaults?
Yes! It uses an optimized fast-glob engine that can recursively scan thousands of nested folders and markdown files almost instantly without crashing.
- 07
Will this capability accidentally modify my notes?
No. This engine operates in strict read-only mode. It uses regex to extract the text and returns it to the AI context. Your files are never altered.
- 08
Does it capture task due dates or tags?
The parser grabs the entire line containing the - [ ] markdown syntax. Any tags (like #urgent) or dates written on that same line will be captured and visible to the AI.
