Workflowy MCP

What it does

Workflowy MCP connects AI agents to the Workflowy outlining service, enabling them to manage tasks, information, and a structured "Second Brain." It allows for high-granularity manipulation of nodes, from simple task completion to complex structural reordering of information.

Tools

• search_nodes: Find nodes via substring filters.
• find_node: O(1) lookup using the persistent name index.
• create_node: Add new entries to the Workflowy graph.
• edit_node: Modify existing node content.
• complete_node: Toggle the completion status of a task.
• reorder_nodes: Precision reordering of sibling nodes.
• get_subtree: Retrieve an entire branch of the outline.
• create_mirror: Implement structural mirroring of content between nodes.
• workflowy_status: Check API connectivity and authentication.
