Nextcloud is self-hosted storage many people use instead of Google Drive or Dropbox. This connects the notes in it to an assistant, so you can ask what you wrote, add a new note, or tidy an old one by asking. It works with Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini among others. You need your own Nextcloud to point it at, and someone comfortable running a small program to set it up the first time.

Nextcloud MCP Server

Docker Image

The Nextcloud MCP (Model Context Protocol) server allows Large Language Models (LLMs) like OpenAI's GPT, Google's Gemini, or Anthropic's Claude to interact with your Nextcloud instance. This enables automation of various Nextcloud actions, starting with the Notes API.

Currently, the server primarily interacts with the Nextcloud Notes API, providing tools and resources to manage notes.

Available Tools

  • nc_notes_create_note: Create a new note.
  • nc_notes_update_note: Update an existing note by ID.
  • nc_notes_delete_note: Delete a note by ID.

Available Resources

  • notes://{note_id}: Access a specific note by its ID.
  • notes://all: Access all notes.
  • notes://settings: Access note settings.
  • nc://capabilities: Access Nextcloud server capabilities.

nextcloud-mcp-server FAQ

Can I use this to search my own notes?
Yes — you can ask about anything stored in Nextcloud Notes and get an answer without opening the app.
Do I need my own Nextcloud?
Yes, it connects to an instance you already run; it does not provide storage of its own.
Which assistants can use it?
It is built to work with any that support this kind of connection, including Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini.
Can it create and change notes or only read them?
It can create, update, and delete notes as well as read them, so you can dictate changes rather than typing them.
How hard is setup?
You run it with Docker or a Python tool and point it at your server, so some technical comfort is needed.
