Before you connect

Questions about Standard Notes.

The practical details behind the request, access and result.

Is my data safe with the Standard Notes MCP?

Yes. This Connector works with your existing end-to-end encryption. Your AI client only sees the specific notes you ask it to retrieve, and your data stays in your secure vault.

Can the AI see all my notes at once?

No, it doesn't have a bird's eye view of your entire vault by default. It pulls specific notes as needed to provide context for your current request.

Does this work with my self-hosted Standard Notes?

Yes, it does. You just need to provide your own endpoint URL and your valid JWT Access Token during the setup process.

How do I keep my notes updated?

You can simply tell your agent to update a specific note. It can modify the content, add new action items, or change the title for you.

Can I use this to organize my old notes?

Yes, it's great for that. You can ask your agent to find notes based on keywords and then apply new tags to organize them into a better system.

Is there a limit to how many notes it can pull?

The limit is based on what your AI client can process in a single turn. It is best to ask for specific notes or small groups of notes at a time.

If I am self-hosting Standard Notes on my own server, can this integration still connect to it?

Absolutely. The SN_SERVER_URL parameter allows complete flexibility. You can use the official https://api.standardnotes.com endpoint, or simply provide the custom domain pointing to your private server infrastructure.

Are my encrypted notes fully exposed to the AI model during a query?

The server passes local encrypted blocks down to the Connector layer. While list_notes primarily retrieves metadata and structural UUIDs, executing an extraction using get_item_details or writing entirely new content via create_note will securely transmit standard text directly to the model's localized context.

What is the purpose of the 'sync_items' functionality?

Standard Notes employs a client-side database synchronization architecture. The sync_items module retrieves exclusively the differences or modifications made since the execution of your last tracked sync_token. It ensures local operational states match the remote vault natively.
