Outline

This connects Claude to your Outline wiki, whether you're running it self-hosted or using their cloud. You get full text search, document reading and creation, collection management, and markdown export. The setup is straightforward: grab an API token from your Outline settings, set two environment variables, and you're done. It's honestly one of those tools that just works as expected. If your team keeps documentation in Outline and you want Claude to search it, update pages, or pull reference material during conversations, this does exactly that. The JSON output mode is handy if you're piping results into other scripts.
