Best for
  • Individuals and teams needing access to several Google Workspace services.
  • Developers deploying by tool tier, service, or permission scope.
  • Organizations needing self-hosted, multi-user OAuth 2.1, or container deployments.
  • Developers who want to call MCP tools through a CLI.
  • Users who already rely on Anytype as a personal or collaborative knowledge base
  • Users who want to create and manage Anytype objects quickly with natural language
  • Advanced users running the Anytype desktop app locally who want AI assistant integration
Not for
  • Users requiring a server maintained by Google.
  • Users with only a personal @gmail.com account who need Google Chat.
  • Users unwilling to configure Google Cloud OAuth credentials or APIs.
  • Applications seeking unauthorized access to Google Workspace data.
  • Users without Anytype installed or running and unable to obtain an API key
  • Scenarios needing a remotely hosted service instead of a local stdio process
  • Users who want zero configuration without setting environment variables
Required permissions
  • Requires Google Cloud OAuth client credentials.
  • OAuth scopes depend on the enabled services and tools.
  • Supports read-only scopes, per-service granular permissions, and full access.
  • Write tools for Drive, Gmail, and other services require corresponding write permissions.
  • Google Chat requires a configured Chat app and a Google Workspace account.
  • Optional service-account mode requires service-account credentials and domain-wide delegation.
  • Requires an Anytype API key passed via an Authorization: Bearer header
  • Needs access to the local Anytype API service (default http://127.0.0.1:31009)
  • Passes authentication headers through the OPENAPI_MCP_HEADERS environment variable, treated as secret
  • Runs an npx command locally as a stdio subprocess
Risks and side effects
  • Full tools and write scopes may allow modifying, sending, deleting, or sharing user data.
  • For public deployments, unrestricted dynamic-client redirect URIs can create a phishing risk.
  • Stdio is a legacy fallback; OAuth 2.1 is recommended for remote or shared deployments.
  • Local attachments and credential stores write to configured local directories; stateless mode avoids file writes.
  • Google API quotas, OAuth consent configuration, and account permissions may limit functionality.
  • The Chat API is unavailable for personal Gmail accounts.
  • OPENAPI_MCP_HEADERS contains the API key; leaking this configuration can expose Anytype data
  • The server can create and modify spaces, objects and lists on behalf of the key owner
  • Running npx -y downloads and executes package code from npm
  • Pointing ANYTYPE_API_BASE_URL at an untrusted address can send authentication headers there
