Context Apps

You install and connect to Context Apps MCP to enable AI-powered productivity across Todo, Idea, Journal, and Timer apps, all coordinated via Claude through the Model Context Protocol. This server handles data exchange, authentication, and tool-based actions so you can manage your day with intelligent context.

How to use

Connect your MCP client to the Context Apps MCP server using the dedicated server URL. Once connected, you can perform cross-app actions such as organizing tasks, brainstorming ideas, reflecting in your journal, and optimizing your focus with timers. Use the client’s MCP integration to search, insert, update, or delete items in each app, and rely on the system to provide context-aware scheduling, insights, and prompts.

How to install

Prerequisites: you should have a compatible MCP client installed on your device. Ensure you have a stable internet connection and, if required by your client, an Apple ID for authentication.

Step 1: Open your MCP client and prepare to add a remote MCP server using the provided URL.

Step 2: In the MCP client, add a new custom connector and use the server URL below.

Step 3: Enter the URL: https://mcp-server.basaapp.com/mcp and complete sign-in if prompted. You are now ready to use Context Apps MCP features.

Step 4: (Optional) If your client supports a JSON-based configuration for MCP servers, you can reference the example snippet shown here to configure the remote server. Keep in mind that you should use the exact URL above.

Configuration and endpoints

The remote MCP server endpoint to connect to is: https://mcp-server.basaapp.com/mcp. This server exposes tools across the four app domains: Task Management, Idea Development, Journal Analysis, and Time Management. You will interact with these tools through your MCP client’s UI, which translates your requests into actions on the server.

If your client supports exporting or importing MCP server configurations, you can use the following JSON snippet as a starting point to reference the remote server. This snippet is provided as a direct example to copy into your client when supported.

Troubleshooting

Connection Issues: Verify the server URL https://mcp-server.basaapp.com/mcp is correct, ensure you have internet connectivity, and confirm your MCP client supports remote servers.

Authentication Problems: Confirm your Apple ID credentials, ensure Context apps are installed on your iOS device (if applicable), and check your device’s permissions for the MCP client.

Tool Errors: Make sure the required Context app is installed for the tool category you’re using, sign in with the same Apple ID in the relevant app, and grant necessary permissions in device settings.
