AI Sticky Notes – MCP Server in Python

This project is a minimal MCP (Message Control Protocol) server built in Python using the mcp SDK. It lets you create and manage sticky notes that can be read, updated, and summarized by an AI agent like Claude, via Claude Desktop.

Features

• Add and save notes
• Read all saved notes
• Fetch the latest note
• Prompt Claude to summarize all notes

Requirements

• Python 3.8+
• Claude Desktop installed
• uv (recommended over pip for dependency management)
• MCP Python SDK

Setup

1. Install uv (recommended)

   # Windows
   irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex
   
   # macOS/Linux
   curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
   
   

2. Initialize a new project

   uv init . |sh
   
   

3. Install dependencies

   uv add mcp-cli
   
   

4. Run the MCP server

   uv run mcp install main.py
   
   

5. Integrate with Claude Desktop

   Open Claude Desktop

   Go to Settings > Developer > Edit Config

   Add your MCP server using the generated uv command

   Restart Claude

Usage

Ask Claude things like:

“Add a note saying ‘Meeting at 3 PM’”

“Read all my notes”

“What’s the latest note?”

“Summarize my notes”

File Structure

  ```bashbash
  main.py          # MCP server implementation
  notes.txt        # Auto-generated file storing notes

Tools and Concepts Used FastMCP

@mcp.tool – For executable functions

@mcp.resource – For context data (like latest notes)

@mcp.prompt – Reusable prompts for AI agents
