What is the Solomd MCP server?

If you already use Solomd, the solomd mcp server is the piece that lets your assistant work with it directly. A markdown editor — and the bridge to your LLM. Local-first, MIT, ~15 MB. Bundled MCP server lets Claude Code / Codex / Cursor drive your vault directly. 14 AI providers BYOK.

What the server does

Your notes live in a folder. SoloMD is the editor on top — with a first-class agent surface inside the editor, and the MCP endpoint Claude Code / Cursor can drive from outside. Same .md files. Chat with your vault. Schedule recipes that run when you're not at the keyboard. Hand the same vault to any MCP client.

Available tools

The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:

  • Type — driven sidebar** — give a note type: Project and its members become a first-class collapsible section with custom icon/colour/columns
  • Smithery — smithery.yaml + Dockerfile at marketplace/smithery/ (submission pending)
  • Feature — The Feature tool exposed by this server
  • Client — Config snippet
  • Cursormarketplace/client-docs/cursor.md
  • Continue.devmarketplace/client-docs/continue.md
  • Zedmarketplace/client-docs/zed.md
  • Stack — Tauri 2 (Rust + WebView)
  • Platforms — macOS · Win · Linux · iPad/iOS/Android
  • Installer — ~32 MB (mac) / ~10 MB (win)
  • Multi-workspace✅ v4.0 MCP federation
  • iPadApp Store — same engine, native iPad UI

Installation

Because this one is hosted, setup is mostly authentication — you point your client at the endpoint and approve access. Nothing runs on your machine, so there is no runtime to keep patched.

Where it fits

This sits in the AI and media services group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. Solomd's toolset — Type, Smithery, Feature and 9 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by zhitongblog; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

This entry was verified against Solomd's own documentation before publication; SyncDev keeps the directory reviewed rather than auto-generated.

Worth knowing first

  • Your data travels to the provider's service, so the usual questions apply about what you send and what they retain.
  • With 12 tools registered it takes up a noticeable share of the context window; turn it off in projects that never touch Solomd.
  • Keep per-call confirmation enabled while you learn its behaviour; it is the cheapest safeguard you have.
