Endnote Mcp
Bridges your local EndNote library to Claude through an indexed SQLite database with 12 tools covering search, citation formatting, and PDF reading. After exporting your library as XML, it builds a full-text search index across metadata and PDF content, optionally adding semantic search via local embeddings. You can ask Claude to search by keywords or meaning, format citations in APA/Harvard/Vancouver/Chicago/IEEE, generate bibliographies, export BibTeX for LaTeX, find related papers, or read specific pages from attached PDFs. Indexing is incremental so adding new references just means re-exporting the XML and running a quick update. Designed for researchers who want to query their reference manager conversationally without uploading anything beyond the chat itself.
