Seamlessly integrate Anki with AI assistants through the Model Context Protocol

Beta - This project is in active development. APIs and features may change.

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables AI assistants to interact with Anki, the spaced repetition flashcard application.

Transform your Anki experience with natural language interaction - like having a private tutor. The AI assistant doesn't just present questions and answers; it can explain concepts, make the learning process more engaging and human-like, provide context, and adapt to your learning style. It can create and edit notes on the fly, turning your study sessions into dynamic conversations. More features coming soon!

Examples and Tutorials

For comprehensive guides, real-world examples, and step-by-step tutorials on using this MCP server with Claude Desktop, visit:

ankimcp.ai - Complete documentation with practical examples and use cases

See docs/ for supplementary documentation, including the reviewer setup guide and the sample Anki deck.

Example Use Cases

Three representative prompts showing the tool flows this server enables:

"Help me review my Spanish deck." — The assistant syncs with AnkiWeb (sync), fetches due cards (get_due_cards with deck filter), presents each card (present_card), and records your rating (rate_card). Natural study conversation with explanations tailored to you.
"Create 10 Arabic vocab cards with RTL styling." — The assistant lists note types (modelNames), creates a custom RTL model if needed (createModel + updateModelStyling for right-to-left CSS), then batch-creates the cards (addNotes).
"Import this image from my Downloads folder into the front of the selected note." — The assistant uploads the local file (storeMediaFile with a file path), reads the currently-selected note from the browser (guiSelectedNotes + notesInfo), and updates the front field with an <img> tag (updateNoteFields).
