org-mcp-server

Active·★ 42·MIT·Updated 2026-10-21

org-mcp-server is a Model Context Protocol server for org-mode knowledge management. It gives AI assistants search, content access and note linking over your org-mode files. The README flags it as a work in progress under active development.

It exposes MCP resources such as org:// for listing files, org-outline:// for a file's heading structure as JSON, org-heading:// for a specific heading, org-id:// for content found by org ID property, and org-agenda:// with today and week views. Three tools are provided: org-file-list, org-search with fuzzy matching across all files, and org-agenda with filters for dates, states, tags and priorities. A companion org-cli command offers the same operations from the terminal. Settings come from a TOML file, with CLI flags and ORG_ environment variables taking priority.

This write-up is based on the project's README and public repository data. We have not hand-tested the tool. Data as of 2026-10-17.

Trade-offs

!The README marks the project as a work in progress, so interfaces and features may change.
!Only three tools are offered, and it is read and search oriented rather than a full note editor.
!It is aimed at org-mode and Emacs users; it does not help with other note formats.

Team knowledge evaporates daily — pairing sessions, debugging context, architectural rationale lost to Slack. Distillery captures it at the point of creation, connects it into a living graph, and surfaces it conversationally. It monitors feeds, tracks what matters to your projects, and alerts you before you know to ask. A team brain that learns.
