Outline MCP

Model Context Protocol (MCP) server wrapping the Outline HTTP API. Tools will be added as needed.

Run

Use docker image pushed to https://gitea.t000-n.de/t.behrendt/outline-mcp:latest

Required Environment variables:

• OUTLINE_BASE_URL=https:/example.com/api
• OUTLINE_API_KEY=xx_api_xx

The server will start on port 3000.

Integrate into Claude

Use mcp-remote as this currently works best with Claude Desktop. Change the URL to wherever your MCP server runs and adjust authentication according to the package. Refer to the Claude Desktop MCP documentation for a deeper dive.
