Note MCP

Note MCP is an MCP server that connects large language models to Blues products, specifically the Notecard cellular/satellite IoT module and the Notehub cloud service. Built using Go, the server exposes documentation, APIs, and domain knowledge to AI assistants. Developers and embedded systems engineers use Note MCP to streamline IoT firmware development and hardware configuration. By serving as Blues Expert, the tool provides accurate, contextual information about Notecard features, commands, and Notehub configurations directly into coding interfaces. This allows developers to craft embedded C/C++ or Python routines, configure routing endpoints, and troubleshoot connectivity without repeatedly consulting external documentation. In addition to guiding architecture and device management, it grounds language model responses in verified Blues product specifications to prevent hallucinations and firmware bugs. The server operates over an HTTP transport, allowing local or containerized setups to interface with tools like Claude Desktop.

How to install and configure Note MCP

1. Ensure you have Go (version 1.23 or newer), Make, and Docker installed on your system. 2. Clone the repository and build the project by running: bash make build 3. Start the server so it listens on the local port (defaulting to port 8080). 4. Open your MCP client configuration file (for Claude Desktop, use claude_desktop_config.json). 5. Add the blues-expert server entry under mcpServers: json { "mcpServers": { "blues-expert": { "type": "http", "url": "http://localhost:8080/expert/mcp" } } } 6. For inspection during development, ensure Node.js v18+ is present and run make inspect-blues-expert. 7. Restart your MCP client to start using the server.

What you can do with Note MCP
