authenticate

authenticate

MCP.AI for IDE agents (Cursor, etc.): log in in the browser, copy the access token. Best: add it to this server's config as a header `Authorization: Bearer <token>` for a permanent, non-expiring connection. Or paste it here for a session-only login: call with { token: "<jwt>" } after the user pastes, or with no args to get the link.

connect

connect

Returns connection status and URLs. When all providers are connected, returns authenticated:true and empty pending[]. When credentials are missing, returns connect_url for the toolkit and per-install URLs.

marketplace

marketplace

The official mcp.ai marketplace — the in-platform catalog of every MCP/tool, AND the way to run them. Covers capability requests like "find an MCP that does X", "consulta um CPF", "is there a tool for Y". Core flow: action=search discovers MCPs by intent → describe returns one MCP's full profile (every tool with its id + params, pricing, auth) so you pick the right tool_id → invoke RUNS that tool. KEY: invoke works even when the MCP is NOT installed — it runs the tool pontualmente (one-off), without adding the MCP to the toolkit and without bloating the tool list. If the MCP needs a credential/login, invoke returns a connect link; if it is paid and the wallet is empty, invoke returns a checkout/top-up link (the user opens it, then you retry). Use install only to make an MCP PERMANENT in the active toolkit (its tools then show up natively in future sessions); prefer invoke for a single/occasional use. list_tools lists what is callable right now. subscribe/cancel handle per-MCP billing; report_bug sends feedback; request_mcp asks us to build a NEW MCP when nothing fits. Search/describe flag installed_in_toolkit vs installed_in_workspace. Writes (install/uninstall/subscribe/cancel and the one-off install behind invoke) require workspace owner/admin.

report

report_bug

Report a bug, missing feature, or send feedback. Include the conversation array with recent messages for reproduction.

show

show_version

Show the current MCP platform and adapter versions.

toolkit

toolkit_info

NotebookLM — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can NotebookLM do?

It exposes 43 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: authenticate, connect, marketplace, notebooklm_artifact_delete, notebooklm_artifact_get, notebooklm_artifact_list and 37 more. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →

Is NotebookLM working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 87 of 91 checks got a reply (95.6%), average response time 487 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect NotebookLM?

Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does NotebookLM need an API key?

No. NotebookLM completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 43 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is NotebookLM?

It answers our handshake in 487 ms on average, which is faster than 23% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.

Is NotebookLM open source?

Yes — it is published under the MIT licence and 1 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
