}Create a token
In the Notesmakr app, open Settings → Connect AI assistants and tap Create token. Copy the token — it is shown only once.
Add the server
In VS Code, open the Command Palette and run "MCP: Open User Configuration". Add the entry above, with your token in place of YOUR_NOTESMAKR_TOKEN, and save.
Start it
Click Start above the "notesmakr" entry, or run "MCP: List Servers" and start it there. Its tools then appear in Copilot Chat’s agent mode.
Ask for a note
Ask: "Make a Notesmakr note explaining this module, with 10 flashcards."
Server URL: https://notesmakr.com/api/mcp. Never share your token or commit it to a code repository.
What to ask
- “Make a Notesmakr note on photosynthesis with 10 flashcards, a quiz and a mind map.”
- “Make a Notesmakr flashcard deck of 15 fill-in-the-blank cards for the key terms in this chapter.”
Each note uses 1 note from your Notesmakr plan. Flashcards, quizzes and mind maps attached to it are free.
Other assistants
Setup guides for every assistant are on the MCP server page.
