Workflowy MCP Server

What it does

Connects your AI assistant directly to your WorkFlowy outlines. It allows the AI to read, search, and modify your structured data, effectively turning your outline into a long-term memory or a structured task database for the LLM.

Tools

• workflowy_get: Retrieve a node and its descendants as a tree.
• workflowy_list: List descendants as a flat list.
• workflowy_search: Perform full-text or regex searches across nodes.
• workflowy_create: Create new nodes in the outline.
• workflowy_update: Modify existing node content.
• workflowy_move: Reorganize the outline by moving nodes.
• workflowy_delete: Remove nodes from the outline.
• workflowy_replace: Execute bulk find-and-replace operations with regex.
• workflowy_report_count: Analyze content distribution across the outline.
