🗒️ MCP AI Sticky Notes – AI-Powered Notes System Using Claude + MCP Server

This project demonstrates how to build a custom MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that exposes tool-powered functionality for creating, updating, listing, and deleting AI-generated sticky notes.

The MCP server integrates seamlessly with Claude Desktop, where:

• Claude (LLM) acts as the MCP client
• Claude Desktop acts as the MCP host
• Your MCP Server registers custom tools
• Users interact naturally through chat
• Claude intelligently invokes your server tools to manage sticky notes

This project is a real example of Agentic Tool Use, powered entirely by MCP.

🚀 Features

✔️ Build your own MCP server (Model Context Protocol)

✔️ Claude automatically detects and calls your tools

✔️ Create, list, update, and delete sticky notes

✔️ Stored notes managed directly through your server

✔️ Zero manual commands — everything triggered by AI

✔️ Shows real-world tool use + agent execution

🧠 How It Works

1️⃣ You define tools in your MCP server

Examples:

• create_note
• get_all_notes
• update_note
• delete_note

Tools specify:

• Name
• Description
• JSON schema
• Handler function

Example tool definition:

{
  "name": "create_note",
  "description": "Create a new sticky note with title and content",
  "input_schema": {...}
}

---

2️⃣ Claude Desktop loads your MCP server

In the claude_desktop_config.json, you point Claude to your MCP server.

Claude now understands your custom tools.

---

3️⃣ User speaks naturally:

“Create a sticky note with 5 points explaining what MCP is.”

Claude interprets it → Plans the action → Calls your MCP tool → Sends JSON payload → Your server executes → Response returned → Claude shows result.

---

4️⃣ Notes stored through your backend

You can store notes:

• In memory
• In a JSON file
• In SQLite / MongoDB
• Or any storage (your choice)

git clone https://github.com/AshutoshRajGupta/AI-Sticky-Notes-Using-MCP
cd AI-Sticky-Notes-Using-MCP

2️⃣ Install dependencies

pip install -r requirements.txt

3️⃣ Run the MCP server

python server.py

4️⃣ Configure Claude Desktop

Add your MCP server in:

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

Example:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "stickyNotes": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["server.py"]
    }
  }
}

5️⃣ Restart Claude Desktop

Claude will now recognize your Sticky Notes tools.

---

💬 Example Interaction

User: “Create a new sticky note explaining what MCP is in 4 points.”

Claude: (Invokes your MCP server tool automatically) *“Created a sticky note titled ‘About MCP’ with 4 bullet points.”

User: “Show all my notes.”

Claude calls list_notes → Returns your notes.
