      }
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop Configuration

Open Claude Desktop settings
Go to "Model Context Protocol" settings
Add new MCP server:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "siyuan-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "siyuan-mcp@latest"],
      "env": {
        "SIYUAN_HOST": "127.0.0.1",

        "SIYUAN_TOKEN": "your-api-token-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Docker Configuration

If you use Docker to run the service, you can configure the client to connect to the Docker container:

Cursor Docker Configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "siyuan-mcp": {
      "command": "docker",
      "args": ["run", "--rm", "-e", "SIYUAN_HOST=127.0.0.1", "-e", "SIYUAN_PORT=6806", "-e", "SIYUAN_TOKEN=your-api-token-here", "zhizhiqq/siyuan-mcp:latest"],
      "env": {}
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop Docker Configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "siyuan-mcp": {
      "command": "docker",
      "args": ["run", "--rm", "-e", "SIYUAN_HOST=127.0.0.1", "-e", "SIYUAN_PORT=6806", "-e", "SIYUAN_TOKEN=your-api-token-here", "zhizhiqq/siyuan-mcp:latest"],
      "env": {}
    }
  }
}

Note: When using Docker configuration, ensure Docker is installed and running.

🔧 Environment Variables

Variable	Description	Default	Required
`SIYUAN_HOST`	SiYuan server address	127.0.0.1	No
`SIYUAN_PORT`	SiYuan server port	6806	No
`SIYUAN_TOKEN`	API token	-	Yes

📋 Common Issues

Q: What if the connection fails?

A: Please check the following steps:

Ensure SiYuan Note is running
Check if the API token is correct
Confirm there are open notebooks in SiYuan Note
Restart SiYuan Note and Cursor

Q: How to get the correct API token?

Open SiYuan Note
Go to Settings → About → API Token
Click Generate Token or copy existing token
Ensure the token format is correct (usually a string of alphanumeric characters)

Q: Why use `-y` parameter with npx?

A: The -y parameter automatically confirms package installation without prompting for user input, which is essential for MCP client configurations where interactive prompts would cause connection failures.
