Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Read and edit a live local-first PowerScroll visual notebook.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Other

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "powerscroll": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "powerscroll-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add powerscroll -- npx -y powerscroll-mcp

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "powerscroll": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "powerscroll-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "powerscroll": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "powerscroll-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Common questions

Is PowerScroll safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.67.1) reached the registry 3 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

PowerScroll

A local-first visual notebook in one editable HTML file—with an MCP bridge for AI agents.

Try PowerScroll · Download PowerScroll.html · Agent setup · Report a problem

PowerScroll combines the hierarchy of OneNote, the freeform canvas of a whiteboard, and editable diagrams in a notebook you completely own. No account, server, proprietary database, or cloud connection is required.

Start in under a minute

  1. Open the live demo or download PowerScroll.html.
  2. Add text, images, drawings, shapes, pages, and independent vertical scrolls.
  3. Press Ctrl+S. The application and your notebook data are saved together in one HTML file.
  4. Open that file in a browser whenever you want to continue.

The hosted demo does not upload notebook content. Download or save your notebook to keep it; your browser file is the source of truth.

Why PowerScroll is different

One file is the product and the data

Every notebook contains the complete editor, structured workspace, drawings, images, and optional extensions. It opens offline and remains editable. Sharing the file shares a working copy rather than an export that needs PowerScroll installed elsewhere.

Visual without losing structure

Sections and pages provide notebook hierarchy. Inside each page, named scrolls create independent vertical workstreams on an infinite canvas. Markdown, math, images, ink, shapes, PlantUML, Mermaid, SVG, and draw.io content can live beside one another.

Humans and agents share the same canvas

The local MCP bridge lets an agent read pages, add and move blocks, manage scrolls, insert images, create native editable diagrams, and save the notebook. Agent edits use the same in-memory stores, undo history, and save path as human edits—there is no shadow database to reconcile.

Let an agent work in your notebook

The bridge is off by default and listens only on your machine. Run the published package directly from npm:

npx -y powerscroll-mcp

Then open a notebook and enable Settings → Agent bridge → Let a local agent write into this notebook. See the complete tool and client setup guide.

The executable is published as powerscroll-mcp and its discovery metadata is active in the official MCP Registry. The latest GitHub release also carries a package tarball as a fallback, but npm is the canonical install source.

Selected capabilities

  • Infinite canvas with pan, zoom, touch, lasso, alignment guides, and undo/redo
  • Markdown, tables, checkboxes, links, syntax blocks, and KaTeX mathematics
  • Images with paste/import, crop, rotate, lightbox, notes, and compact mode
  • Freehand pen and erasers; styled rectangles, circles, triangles, arrows, lines, and arcs
  • Sections, pages, named resizable scrolls, outline, search, and replace
  • Native editable diagrams from PlantUML, Mermaid, SVG, and draw.io
  • Direct disk save and autosave in Chrome/Edge, with browser download fallback
  • In-app updates that preserve notebook content and installed extensions
  • Local multi-agent MCP bridge with a single-writer lease and unblocked reads

Privacy and security

Normal editing does not require a PowerScroll server or account. Update checks and optional extension installation contact GitHub; the local agent bridge makes a loopback WebSocket connection only after the user enables it.

A notebook is executable HTML. Open notebooks only from people you trust, just as you would any executable document. See SECURITY.md for the threat model and private vulnerability-reporting instructions.

Migrating a PowerNote notebook

PowerScroll opens existing PowerNote notebooks directly. Legacy embedded ids, internal links, storage, and bridge protocol identifiers remain supported.

For a notebook too old to update itself:

  1. Open the latest PowerScroll.html.
  2. Use the Open button to select the old notebook.
  3. Press Ctrl+S to write the current PowerScroll editor back with its content.

Development

npm install

npm install --prefix powernote-mcp npm run dev npm run build:template npx playwright test npm run test:bridge

PowerScroll is built with React, TypeScript, Vite, Konva, and Zustand. Behavioral requirements and their test traceability live in docs/. Contribution expectations are in CONTRIBUTING.md. Maintainers should use the release runbook and update the deployment ledger after publishing.
