Access your reMarkable tablet - read documents, browse files, extract text and OCR
Access your reMarkable tablet - read documents, browse files, extract text and OCR. That is what the remarkable mcp server brings to an AI assistant: the same capability, reachable through the Model Context Protocol rather than a separate app or dashboard.
Unlock the full potential of your reMarkable tablet as a second brain for AI assistants. This MCP server lets Claude, VS Code Copilot, and other AI tools read, search, and traverse your entire reMarkable library — including handwritten notes via OCR.
remarkable-mcp on PyPI is all you need. Most clients run it directly, so configuration is a few lines and a restart.
The server publishes 14 tools. What each one is for:
remarkable_read — Read and extract text from documents (with pagination and search)remarkable_browse — Navigate folders, search by document name, or filter by tagsremarkable_search — Search content across multiple documents (with tag filtering)remarkable_recent — Get recently modified documentsremarkable_status — Check connection status and the per-transport capability matrixremarkable_image — Get PNG/SVG images of pages (supports OCR via sampling)Feature — Cloud ModeUpload — ✅Mkdir — ✅Move — ✅Rename — ✅Delete — ✅ (→ trash)Configuration is passed through the environment: GOOGLE_VISION_API_KEY, REMARKABLE_TOKEN, REMARKABLE_OCR_BACKEND, REMARKABLE_READ_ONLY. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.
This sits in the planning and project tracking group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. ReMarkable's toolset — remarkable_read, remarkable_browse, remarkable_search and 11 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by SamMorrowDrums; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.
