Description

Needle MCP Server exposes Needle's document collections and search capabilities via the Model Context Protocol so LLMs like Claude can query and retrieve documents (PDF, DOCX, XLSX, etc.). It supports a hosted remote endpoint for easy integration as well as local and Docker deployment options. The server enables natural-language search and collection management from Claude Desktop, simplifying retrieval-augmented workflows. It is useful for making buried content in documents instantly accessible to agents and LLM-driven tools.
