Read and write knowledge-base articles, categories, snippets, glossary, readers, and search data.
The publisher's own server: Ably MCP by usefulapi
Read and write a KnowledgeOwl knowledge base from an MCP client: browse articles, categories, snippets and glossary, and create or update content.
Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.
Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.
Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/io.usefulapi%2Fknowledgeowl/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.Add this to your client's mcpServers config.

https://knowledgeowl.usefulapi.io/mcp.claude mcp add --transport http knowledgeowl https://knowledgeowl.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run /mcp to log in.Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config: the server signs you in with OAuth, and the login page asks for your KnowledgeOwl credentials.
Step-by-step setup, where to find your credentials, and FAQ: https://usefulapi.io/knowledgeowl/
On first connect you'll paste your KnowledgeOwl API key — create one under Account → API keys. It's sent as HTTP Basic auth and runs against your account with your permissions.
read tools are read-only; write tools mutate data (clients should confirm them); meta tools report usage, manage your subscription or send a feature request.

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
