MCP server for [Yuque (语雀)](https://www.yuque.com/) — expose your knowledge base to AI assistants through the [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/).

---
## Quick Start
### 1. Get Your Yuque API Token
Visit [Yuque Developer Settings](https://www.yuque.com/settings/tokens) to create a personal access token.
### 2. Quick Install (Recommended)
Use the built-in CLI to auto-configure your MCP client in one command:
```bash
npx yuque-mcp install --token=YOUR_TOKEN --client=cursor
```
Supported clients: `claude-desktop`, `vscode`, `cursor`, `windsurf`, `cline`, `trae`, `qoder`, `opencode`
Or use the interactive setup wizard:
```bash
npx yuque-mcp setup
```
The CLI will automatically find the correct config file for your OS, merge with any existing configuration (without overwriting other servers), and print a success message.
### 3. Manual Configuration

}
}
}
}
```
</details>
<details>
<summary><b>VS Code (GitHub Copilot)</b></summary>
Add to `.vscode/mcp.json` in your workspace:
```json
{
"servers": {
"yuque": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "yuque-mcp"],
"env": {
"YUQUE_PERSONAL_TOKEN": "YOUR_TOKEN"
}
}
}
}
```
Then enable Agent mode in GitHub Copilot Chat.
</details>
<details>
<summary><b>Cursor</b></summary>
Add to your Cursor MCP configuration (`~/.cursor/mcp.json`):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"yuque": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "yuque-mcp"],
"env": {
"YUQUE_PERSONAL_TOKEN": "YOUR_TOKEN"
}
}
}
}
```
</details>
<details>
<summary><b>Windsurf</b></summary>
Add to your Windsurf MCP configuration (`~/.windsurf/mcp.json`):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"yuque": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "yuque-mcp"],
"env": {
"YUQUE_PERSONAL_TOKEN": "YOUR_TOKEN"
}
}
}
}
```
</details>
<details>
<summary><b>Cline (VS Code)</b></summary>
Add to your Cline MCP settings (`~/Library/Application Support/Code/User/globalStorage/saoudrizwan.claude-dev/settings/cline_mcp_settings.json`):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"yuque": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "yuque-mcp"],
"env": {
"YUQUE_PERSONAL_TOKEN": "YOUR_TOKEN"
}
}
}
}
```
</details>
<details>
<summary><b>Trae</b></summary>
In Trae, open **Settings** and navigate to the **MCP** section, then add a new stdio-type MCP Server with the following configuration:
- **Command:** `npx`
- **Args:** `-y yuque-mcp`
- **Env:** `YUQUE_PERSONAL_TOKEN=YOUR_TOKEN`
See [Trae MCP documentation](https://docs.trae.ai/ide/model-context-protocol) for detailed instructions.
</details>
> **More clients:** Any MCP-compatible client that supports stdio transport can use yuque-mcp. The general pattern is: command = `npx`, args = `["-y", "yuque-mcp"]`, env = `YUQUE_PERSONAL_TOKEN`.
</details>
### 4. Done!
Ask your AI assistant to search your Yuque docs, create documents, or manage books.

|-------|----------|
| `YUQUE_PERSONAL_TOKEN is required` | Set the environment variable `YUQUE_PERSONAL_TOKEN` or pass `--token=YOUR_TOKEN` |
| `401 Unauthorized` | Token is invalid or expired — regenerate at [Yuque Settings](https://www.yuque.com/settings/tokens) |
| `429 Rate Limited` | Too many requests — wait a moment and retry |
| `410 Gone` | The resource has been permanently deleted or the API endpoint is deprecated — verify the target document/repo still exists |
| Tool not found | Update to the latest version: `npx -y yuque-mcp@latest` |
| `npx` command not found | Install [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/) (v18 or later) |
