reMarkable MCP

An MCP server that connects Claude to your reMarkable tablet. It lets Claude read your documents, search across notebooks, view hand-drawn sketches, and extract highlights — without leaving your coding session.

I built this because I take notes on my reMarkable and wanted Claude to be able to reference them while I work. The gap between paper thinking and digital tools felt unnecessary.

Install

One command. It installs dependencies, registers your tablet, and configures Claude Code automatically.

curl -fsSL https://thijsverreck.com/setup.sh | sh

The script will:

1. Install uv and Claude Code if needed (via Homebrew on macOS)
2. Open your browser to register the tablet
3. Configure the MCP server in Claude Code

After that, start a new Claude Code session and your reMarkable is available.

What it can do

• Read documents — PDFs, ebooks, and notebooks with full text extraction
• Search — find content across all your documents by name or full-text search
• View pages as images — hand-drawn diagrams, sketches, and wireframes rendered as PNG or SVG
• Extract annotations — highlights and handwritten notes from PDFs and ebooks
• OCR — handwriting recognition using Claude's own vision, no external API keys needed

How it works

The server connects to the reMarkable Cloud API using a device token. When Claude needs to read a document, it fetches it on demand, extracts the content, and caches it locally for fast subsequent access.

It runs as a standard MCP server via uvx, so there's nothing to keep running — Claude Code starts it when needed.
