## MCP tools (6)

### `notes_overview` (~39 tokens)

Notes overview

Start here. Shows where notes are read from, every folder with its note count, totals, and any problems such as locked or unreadable notes.

### `list_notes` (~224 tokens)

List or search notes

Find notes: newest first, filtered by words, folder, modified dates, attachments or handwriting. Returns note ids for the other tools, and next_offset while more remain.

Input parameters:

- `folder` (string): Folder name from notes_overview, e.g. "Invoices". Includes subfolders. Use "(no folder)" for notes outside folders.
- `has_attachments` (boolean): true: only notes with photos or PDFs. false: only notes without.
- `has_handwriting` (boolean): true: only notes with handwriting or drawings. false: only notes without.
- `limit` (integer)
- `modified_after` (string): Only notes last edited on or after this day, YYYY-MM-DD. Not the date written on an invoice inside the note.
- `modified_before` (string): Only notes last edited on or before this day, YYYY-MM-DD. Not the date written on an invoice inside the note.
- `offset` (integer)
- `query` (string): Words to find in titles and typed text. Every word must appear. Handwriting isn't searched.

### `read_note` (~48 tokens)

Read a note

Read one note: title, folder, dates, pages, attachment list, typed text with tables, and which pages hold handwriting or drawings.

Input parameters:

- `id` (string, required): Note id from list_notes.

### `get_page_image` (~99 tokens)

See a page

See one page as an image. Use it for handwriting, drawings and layout, which read_note's text leaves out. Very tall pages come in overlapping parts: read them all, and count a repeated line once.

Input parameters:

- `id` (string, required): Note id from list_notes.
- `page` (integer, required): Page number, starting at 1.
- `part` (integer): For very tall pages: which part to show, starting at 1.

### `get_attachment` (~183 tokens)

Open an attachment

Open a photo or PDF attached to a note, such as an invoice, receipt or scan. Photos come back as images; PDFs as text, plus images of pages without a text layer. Very tall photos and pages come in overlapping parts: read them all before taking figures, and count a repeated line once.

Input parameters:

- `as_images` (boolean): PDF only: also send images of pages that have text.
- `file` (string, required): Attachment file name from read_note or list_notes.
- `id` (string, required): Note id from list_notes.
- `pages` (array): PDF only: page numbers to read, starting at 1. Default: the first 5.
- `part` (integer): For very tall photos and PDF pages: which part to show, starting at 1. For a PDF, ask for one page at a time: pages=[N].

### `save_attachments` (~216 tokens)

Save attachments to a folder

Save copies of photos and PDFs attached to notes, such as invoices, receipts and scans, into a folder inside the user's Save folder, under names you choose. Use it only when the user asks to save, collect or organise files. Notes are never changed and no file is overwritten: a taken name gets “ (2)”, and a file whose contents are already in the folder is skipped, so repeating a call is safe. With check_only=true nothing is written: it says which files are already there, so a continued job skips them without opening them.

Input parameters:

- `check_only` (boolean): Write nothing; only say which files are already in the folder. Use it before opening files to save, and when continuing an earlier job.
- `folder` (string, required): Folder inside the Save folder, e.g. “Invoices 2025” or “Invoices/2025”. A relative name, not a full path; created when the first file is saved.
- `items` (array, required): Files to save, up to 50.

## Common questions

### What is the Samsung Notes MCP server?

Samsung Notes is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.Mhemd139/samsung-notes. Read Samsung Notes: typed text, tables, handwritten pages, photos and PDFs. Never changes a note. This page covers its npm package (samsung-notes-mcp).

### Is the Samsung Notes MCP server safe to use?

Samsung Notes scores 89 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 5 November 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. Its build provenance is signed and verified. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

### What tools does the Samsung Notes MCP server expose?

Samsung Notes exposes 6 tools: notes_overview, list_notes, read_note, get_page_image, get_attachment, save_attachments. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 809 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the Samsung Notes MCP server still maintained?

Samsung Notes is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

### What licence is the Samsung Notes MCP server under?

Samsung Notes declares the GPL-3.0-only licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.

### What did VerifyMCP test on the Samsung Notes MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 16 checks on Samsung Notes, covering Malware scan, Known CVEs, Install scripts, Dependency health and 12 more. Endpoint Security and Transport & Reachability do not apply to an npm package, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
