Obsideo MCP server

by Regan-Milne · official

Let your AI store files in encrypted cloud storage and prove they are still there.

Obsideo is a place to keep files online. This helper lets your AI assistant save files there, get them back, and check they are still safe. It is handy if you want your AI to keep notes, backups, or working files that survive after you close the chat.

What is an MCP server? The 30-second version

On its own, your AI can only chat with you. An MCP server is a small helper program that gives your AI a new skill. This helper connects your AI to Obsideo, an online storage service. Once it is set up, your AI can save files to Obsideo, read them back, and check they are still there, all when you ask it to.

What this MCP server does

You ask your AI to save a file or some text. Your AI uses this helper to send it to Obsideo. Before it leaves your computer, the helper scrambles the file so only you can read it. Obsideo keeps copies in three places and regularly checks they are still holding your file. Later, you can ask your AI to get the file back, list what you have saved, or prove the file is still there without downloading it.

What you can do with it

  • Save a file or some text to encrypted online storage
  • Get a saved file back and read it
  • List everything you have saved
  • Delete a file you no longer need
  • Check that the storage service still holds your file
  • See how much space you are using
  • Back up your encryption key so you do not lose access

Try asking your AI

  • “Save this meeting summary to Obsideo as notes.txt”
  • “List everything I have stored in Obsideo”
  • “Get my notes.txt file from Obsideo”
  • “Check that my backup file is still safe in Obsideo”

What it gives back to you

When you save something, your AI tells you it worked and gives you the file name. When you list, you get a simple list of your files. When you check a file, you get a short answer saying whether the storage service still holds it. When you get a file, the text or file appears in the chat.

Before you start

What you need

  • The Claude desktop app or another AI tool that supports MCP
  • Node.js 18 or newer if you install with npx
  • Nothing else: a free trial account is created automatically the first time you save something

Good to know

If you lose your encryption key file, your saved files become unreadable forever, so back it up right after you start using this.
