MCP Server

Savebase exposes a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server so your AI assistants can search and read your saved bookmarks. Ask Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor something like "What did I save about kettlebell training?" and it will query your Savebase library directly.

Overview

MCP is an open standard that lets AI applications connect to external data sources. Savebase implements an MCP-compatible HTTP endpoint that gives your AI assistant read-only access to your bookmarks, folders, and tags.

For ChatGPT, install the published Savebase plugin. For Claude, Cursor, VS Code, and other MCP clients, use this server address:

https://mcp.savebase.space/mcp

You sign in with your Savebase account the same way you would sign into any other app — no API keys or tokens to copy. Access is read-only: nothing connected through MCP can add, edit, or delete anything in your library.

Requirements

• A Savebase account whose current entitlement includes MCP access
• The published Savebase plugin for ChatGPT, or an MCP-compatible client such as Claude, Cursor, or VS Code

Managing Connected Apps

Every app you sign into is listed under Settings → MCP Server → Connected apps, with the date you connected it and when it last read your library. Click Disconnect to revoke access immediately.

Savebase sends data only when a request causes the connected assistant to query the MCP server; it does not push your library to connected apps in the background or use it to train a Savebase model. Once data reaches an assistant, that provider's privacy and data-use terms apply. See the Savebase Privacy Policy for the full list of what a connected app can receive.

Advanced: Manual Access Token

Some older MCP clients cannot sign in through the browser and need a token sent as a header instead. For those, open Settings → MCP Server → Advanced, enter a label, and click Generate token. The token starts with sb- and stays valid until you revoke it.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "savebase": {
      "url": "https://mcp.savebase.space/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer sb-YOUR_MCP_TOKEN"
      }
    }
  }
}

Available Tools

Once connected, your AI assistant has access to these nine tools. Every one of them only reads — none can change anything in your library.

Example Prompts

Try asking your AI assistant questions like:

• "What did I save about kettlebell training?"
• "Show me everything I saved from Reddit last month."
• "Find the saved video where someone explains how to set up a Cloudflare Worker."
• "Have I already saved this link?" — paste a URL
• "Find all bookmarks in my 'Design Inspiration' folder."
• "What articles have I tagged with 'AI'?"
• "Give me a breakdown of my library — how much, from where, top tags."
• "Summarise the posts I saved last week."
