Authentication

When you first connect, Bindly will prompt you to authenticate via OAuth:

What Your LLM Can Do

Once connected, your LLM has access to 29 tools:

• Save knowledge: mcp_create_binding — save content from conversations
• Search: mcp_search — find knowledge by semantic or keyword search
• Retrieve: mcp_get_binding — get full content with version history
• Organize: mcp_create_set, mcp_add_version_to_set — build collections
• Comment: mcp_add_comment — add notes to Bindings or Versions
• Share: mcp_create_share — create temporary share links

See the MCP Tools Reference for the complete list.

User Keys (Alternative Auth)

For programmatic access or when OAuth isn't available:

Troubleshooting

"Connection failed": Check your MCP client supports Streamable HTTP or SSE protocol.

"Authentication expired": Re-authenticate by disconnecting and reconnecting in your MCP client.

"Permission denied": You may not have access to the requested Space. Use mcp_list_spaces to see your accessible Spaces.
