MCP tools · 11 exposed · ~1,035 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
append_to_note ~188

Append text to the note with the given exact filename, creating the note if it does not exist yet (find-or-create). This is the primitive for logging: call it repeatedly to accumulate entries (AI session logs, cron output, journal lines) in one note addressed by a stable filename like "ai-sessions.txt". Plain text only.

NameTypeReqDescription
append_onlybooleanOn first-touch creation only: lock the note append-only (default true). Ignored if the note already exists.
encryptbooleanEncrypt this entry locally with FRESHJOTS_PASSPHRASE before appending; on first-touch creation also marks the stream client-encrypted. Personal accounts only.
filenamestringyesExact filename to append to / create, e.g. "ai-sessions.txt".
textstringyesThe text to append (added as a new entry).

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

create_folder ~38

Create a new folder. Folder names are unique (case-insensitive) within the account.

NameTypeReqDescription
namestringyesName of the new folder.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

create_note ~152

Create a new plain-text note. The server derives the filename from the title. To create a note you can address later by an exact filename of your choosing, use append_to_note instead (it creates the note on first write). Plain text only.

NameTypeReqDescription
bodystringPlain-text body of the note.
encryptbooleanEncrypt the body locally with FRESHJOTS_PASSPHRASE before storing, and mark the note client-encrypted — Fresh Jots stores only ciphertext it cannot read. Personal accounts only.
folder_idintegerOptional folder id to file the note under.
titlestringyesTitle of the note. The server derives the filename from it.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

delete_folder ~49

Delete a folder by its numeric id. Notes inside it are NOT deleted — they are moved out of the folder (un-filed).

NameTypeReqDescription
idintegeryesNumeric id of the folder to delete.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

delete_note ~48

Delete a note by its numeric id. Append-only notes cannot be deleted via the API. This cannot be undone through this server.

NameTypeReqDescription
idintegeryesNumeric id of the note to delete.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

list_folders ~26

List all folders in the account (id, name, timestamps), ordered alphabetically.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

list_notes ~146

List the account's notes (most-recently-updated first by default) as summaries: id, filename, title, format, timestamps, and a body excerpt. Filter by folder or format. Both plain and rich notes are listed, but only plain notes can be created or edited through this server.

NameTypeReqDescription
folder_idFolder id to filter by, or "none" for notes in no folder.
formatstringFilter by note format.
limitintegerMax notes to return (default 50, max 200).
offsetintegerPagination offset (default 0).
sortstringSort order (default "updated").

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

move_note ~75

Move a note (by numeric id) into a folder, or out of any folder. Pass a folder_id to file it there, or null to un-file it.

NameTypeReqDescription
folder_idyesTarget folder id, or null to remove the note from its folder.
idintegeryesNumeric id of the note to move.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

read_note ~122

Read a single note in full (including its complete plain_body) by exact filename (e.g. "ai-sessions.txt") or numeric id. Provide exactly one of filename or id.

NameTypeReqDescription
decryptbooleanDecrypt the returned plain_body locally with FRESHJOTS_PASSPHRASE (for notes stored client-encrypted). fj1: lines are decrypted; other lines pass through.
filenamestringExact filename of the note (preferred addressing).
idintegerNumeric note id (e.g. from list_notes).

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

rename_folder ~41

Rename an existing folder, addressed by its numeric id.

NameTypeReqDescription
idintegeryesNumeric id of the folder.
namestringyesNew folder name.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

update_note ~150

Update a plain-text note's title, body, and/or folder, addressed by exact filename or numeric id. Only the fields you supply change; omitted fields are left untouched. Rich-format and append-only notes reject body/title edits. Provide exactly one of filename or id.

NameTypeReqDescription
bodystringNew full plain-text body (replaces the existing body; omit to leave unchanged).
filenamestringExact filename of the note to update.
folder_idNew folder id, or null to remove from its folder. Omit to leave unchanged.
idintegerNumeric id of the note to update.
