A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server providing full access to BookStack's knowledge management API in .NET 10. Gives AI assistants (GitHub Copilot, Claude, and others) direct access to your BookStack instance.
Inspired by https://github.com/pnocera/bookstack-mcp-server.
Install from the VS Code Marketplace — the server binary is bundled:
Then set three settings (Ctrl+, → search bookstack):
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
bookstack.url | https://your-bookstack/ |
bookstack.tokenId | Your BookStack API token ID |
bookstack.tokenSecret | Your BookStack API token secret |
See vscode-extension/README.md for full configuration reference.
Run the server as a container — ideal for self-hosted AI assistants, Claude Desktop, or any client that supports Streamable HTTP MCP.
docker run -d \
-e BOOKSTACK_BASE_URL=https://your-bookstack/ \
-e BOOKSTACK_TOKEN_SECRET=your-token-id:your-token-secret \
-e BOOKSTACK_MCP_TRANSPORT=http \
-e BOOKSTACK_MCP_HTTP_AUTH_TOKEN=change-me \
-p 3000:3000 \
ghcr.io/markzither/bookstack-mcp-server:latest
Health check: GET http://localhost:3000/health
MCP endpoint: http://localhost:3000/mcp (Bearer token required if BOOKSTACK_MCP_HTTP_AUTH_TOKEN is set)
Sample compose files are provided for common configurations:
| File | Description |
|---|---|
docker-compose.yml | HTTP transport, no vector search (simplest) |
docker-compose.sqlite.yml | SQLite vector search + Ollama embeddings |
docker-compose.postgres.yml | PostgreSQL + pgvector + Ollama (all in containers) |
docker-compose.postgres-external.yml | PostgreSQL external connection string + Ollama |
Copy and edit the relevant file, then:
cp docker-compose.yml docker-compose.override.yml
# edit docker-compose.override.yml with your values
docker compose up -d
