mcp-pkm-logseq MCP server

A MCP server for interacting with your Logseq Personal Knowledge Management system using custom instructions

Components

Resources

• logseq://guide - Initial instructions on how to interact with this knowledge base

Tools

• personal_notes(topics: list[str]) - Retrieve personal notes from Logseq about specific topics

Configuration

The following environment variables can be configured:

• LOGSEQ_API_KEY: API key for authenticating with Logseq (default: "this-is-my-logseq-mcp-token")
• LOGSEQ_URL: URL where the Logseq HTTP API is running (default: "http://localhost:12315")

Quickstart

Install

Claude Desktop

On MacOS: ~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json On Windows: %APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

Published Servers Configuration

"mcpServers": {
  "mcp-pkm-logseq": {
    "command": "uvx",
    "args": [
      "mcp-pkm-logseq"
    ],
    "env": {
      "LOGSEQ_API_KEY": "your-logseq-api-token",
      "LOGSEQ_URL": "http://localhost:12315"
    }
  }
}

Start Logseq server

Logseq's HTTP API is an interface that runs within your desktop Logseq application. When enabled, it starts a local HTTP server (default port 12315) that allows programmatic access to your Logseq knowledge base. The API supports querying pages and blocks, searching content, and potentially modifying content through authenticated requests.

To enable the Logseq HTTP API server:

1. Open Logseq and go to Settings (upper right corner)
2. Navigate to Advanced
3. Enable "Developer mode"
4. Enable "HTTP API Server"
5. Set your API token (this should match the LOGSEQ_API_KEY value in the MCP server configuration)

Development

Building and Publishing

To prepare the package for distribution:

1. Sync dependencies and update lockfile:

uv sync

2. Build package distributions:

uv build

This will create source and wheel distributions in the dist/ directory.

3. Publish to PyPI:

uv publish

Note: You'll need to set PyPI credentials via environment variables or command flags:

• Token: --token or UV_PUBLISH_TOKEN
• Or username/password: --username/UV_PUBLISH_USERNAME and --password/UV_PUBLISH_PASSWORD

Debugging

Since MCP servers run over stdio, debugging can be challenging. For the best debugging experience, we strongly recommend using the MCP Inspector.

You can launch the MCP Inspector via npm with this command:

npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector uv --directory /Users/ronie/MCP/mcp-pkm-logseq run mcp-pkm-logseq

Upon launching, the Inspector will display a URL that you can access in your browser to begin debugging.
