Tools

Tool What it does
search Finds notes by words, the way app search does. todo: dentist filters by tag.
fetch Returns one note's full text. Long notes come in 60,000-character parts.
list_notes Lists notes by order, tag, state, creation date and optional words, with a cursor.
list_tags Lists tags with how many notes use each.
add_note Adds a note at the top, with an optional tag. A request_id makes retries safe.
append_to_note Adds a paragraph to the end of a note.
edit_note Replaces one exact quoted piece of a note's current text.
rescue_note Moves a note back to the top and unarchives it.
archive_note Moves a note to Archive.
restore_note Brings a note back from Deleted Notes.
trash_note Moves a note to Deleted Notes.
upload_audio Returns a signed link to upload a recording of up to 100 MB.
transcribe_audio Turns speech in a recording into text, in 99 languages.
add_voice_note Transcribes a recording and saves it as a new note. A spoken tag ("To do, …") becomes the note's tag.

Every tool has a title, read-only, destructive, idempotent and open-world hints, and an output schema. Nothing deletes a note permanently.

Sign-in and scopes

An unauthenticated call returns 401 with a WWW-Authenticate header pointing at the protected resource metadata. From there a client finds the authorization server metadata and registers itself with a client ID metadata document or dynamic client registration. Most MCP clients do all of this for you.

  • notes:read covers searching, listing and reading.
  • notes:write covers every change. A read-only connection that tries a write gets a step-up challenge.
  • offline_access adds a refresh token.

The person approving the connection needs Gravity Sync turned on in a Gravity app, on iPhone, iPad, Mac or Android. They can disconnect any app in Gravity under Settings → Gravity Sync → AI apps.

Limits

  • 120 reads and 60 writes a minute for each connected app.
  • 4 MiB for one request. Send bigger recordings through upload_audio.
  • Access tokens last an hour. Refresh tokens rotate and last 60 days without use.

Privacy

Notes an AI app reads go to that app's provider under their terms. Gravity keeps a record of which connected app changed which note, never the note text, for 90 days. Uploaded recordings are deleted once they're transcribed, and within two days at most. The privacy policy has the details.
