MCP.Pizza Chef: anyproto

Built by the Anytype team, this hands your assistant the keys to your encrypted local vault. It can create objects and collections, add and reschedule tasks, apply tags and properties, search across every space at once, and pull things from a conversation into the right place without you clicking through the app. It talks to Anytype running on your own machine, so nothing routes through an outside server. You generate an access key inside Anytype's settings and paste a short block into your assistant's configuration.

The Anytype MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server enabling AI assistants to seamlessly interact with Anytype's API through natural language.

It bridges the gap between AI and Anytype's powerful features by converting Anytype's OpenAPI specification into MCP tools, allowing you to manage your knowledge base through conversation.
