What it does

Hjarni is an AI-native note-taking app. Write notes in Markdown, organize them in folders with custom AI instructions per folder, and let Claude or ChatGPT search, read, create, and organize your notes via MCP.

Your notes serve two readers: you and your AI. Hjarni stores the knowledge. ChatGPT and Claude are the interfaces.

Connect

Hjarni is a hosted remote MCP server with OAuth authentication. No API keys, no Docker, no local setup. Setup takes under 2 minutes.

1. Open Settings > Integrations

2. Tap Add custom connector

3. Set the name to `hjarni` and the URL to `https://hjarni.com/mcp`

4. Tap Add and log in to Hjarni when redirected

> Requires Claude Pro or Team plan for MCP integrations.

Claude Desktop / Claude Code

Add to your MCP config (`claude_desktop_config.json` or `.claude.json`):

  "mcpServers": {
    "hjarni": {
      "url": "https://hjarni.com/mcp",
      "type": "streamable-http"

Built-in prompts

The server also exposes MCP prompts for clients that support prompt discovery:

Usage examples

Research assistant

> "What decisions have I made about the tech stack?"

Claude searches your notes, follows wiki-links between related notes, and synthesizes a summary from multiple sources.

Quick capture

> "Save this as a note in my Projects folder and tag it"

Claude finds the right container, creates the note with Markdown formatting, adds tags, and links it to related notes.

Weekly review

> "Help me triage my inbox"

Claude lists unfiled notes, suggests where each belongs based on your folder structure, and moves them with your approval.

Writing with context

> "Draft a project update using my recent meeting notes"

Claude pulls relevant notes and uses them as source material.
