What is the Loom MCP Server?

Local-first personal knowledge base. Cited answers from your vault via vector + graph retrieval.

What you get

Point it at your notes folder. Loom indexes everything, maps typed relationships between ideas (which notes cite the same sources, which contradict each other, which extend the same argument), and builds a persistent graph that gets smarter as you add more. Your vault, vector index, and graph stay on your machine. Only the specific passages behind an answer go to Claude for synthesis — or skip that and run a local model instead.

  • Ask your notes anything — semantic search + knowledge graph traversal with cited answers. Retrieval runs locally; synthesis uses Claude by default (or a local model)
  • See what you forgot: weekly reports find notes you read months ago that connect to what you're working on now (Knowledge Archaeology, live)
  • Track how your thinking evolved: monthly reports show how your understanding of a topic shifted over time (Temporal Reasoning, live)
  • Know where you're thin: weekly reports rank concepts where your coverage is shallow (Epistemic Audit, live)
  • Ingest everything automatically — drop PDFs, audio, and web URLs into one folder. Loom does the rest
  • Store your vault, index, or graph anywhere but your machine
