MCP Server

Overview

SR-7 includes a built-in MCP (Model Context Protocol) server on macOS. When enabled, it runs a local HTTP server that exposes your recordings, transcriptions, and summaries to any MCP-compatible AI tool or agent.

This means tools like Claude Code, Claude Desktop, or custom agents can search your recordings, read transcripts, and work with your audio archive — all running locally on your machine.

Enabling the MCP Server

Open SR-7 preferences and enable the MCP server. The server starts on a local port and is only accessible from your machine. No data leaves your device.

Available Resources

The MCP server exposes:

• Recordings — metadata for all recordings (title, date, duration, project)
• Transcriptions — full transcription text for any recording
• Summaries — AI-generated summaries
• Projects — project structure and organisation

Configuring AI Tools

To connect Claude Desktop or Claude Code to SR-7, add the server to your MCP configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sr-7": {
      "url": "http://localhost:19750/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Or using the Claude Code CLI:

claude mcp add --transport http sr7 http://localhost:19750

The port number is shown in SR-7 preferences when the server is running.

Use Cases

• Search your archive — ask an AI assistant to find recordings about a specific topic
• Summarise a project — get an overview of all recordings in a project
• Export and transform — use agents to extract action items, draft emails from meeting notes, or compile research
• Cross-reference — combine recording data with other tools in your workflow
