Registries describe servers; they do not connect to them. Until a check runs, treat the tool list below as a claim.\n\n## Connect\n\nPublished as `remarkable-mcp` on pypi. Runs locally.\n\n## Reviewed GitHub reports\n\n**45 GitHub reports passed Pod's relevance review.** This can include external user reports, maintainer-confirmed bugs, and concrete feature gaps. It is evidence to inspect, not a count of distinct defects. Showing 12.\n\n### Most discussed\n\n### Can't get it to work\n\nMan, I love the idea of this project, but I haven't been able to get it to work.  In USB mode it appears that the image generation is failing, so it can't do OCR to extract text.  Even if cloud mode is slow, I'd be willing to live with it to give it a go, but it fails with bad request, despite me copying and pasting the generated key output from the terminal.\n\nAny suggestions are welcome!\n\n[Read the thread](https://github.com/SamMorrowDrums/remarkable-mcp/issues/94) · 2026-05-20 · closed · external user · 6 comments\n\n### remarkable_image fails in Claude Desktop/Web with \"cairo library missing\", but works in MCP Inspector\n\nI'm seeing inconsistent behavior between MCP Inspector and Claude.\n\n* `remarkable_browse` works correctly.\n* `remarkable_read` works correctly.\n* `remarkable_image` works correctly in MCP Inspector.\n* However, Claude always reports **\"cairo library missing\"** when it tries to use `remarkable_image`.\n\nBecause Inspector successfully generates PNG images, it doesn't appear that Cairo is actually missing on the server.\n\n## Environment\n\n* remarkable-mcp: **1.0.0**\n* Started with:\n\n```bash\nnpx -y mcp-\n\n[Read the thread](https://github.com/SamMorrowDrums/remarkable-mcp/issues/137) · 2026-07-21 · closed · external user · 4 comments\n\n### 400 Bad Request on sync/v3 endpoint - Cloud authentication fails despite valid device token\n\n**Environment**\n- OS: Windows 11\n- remarkable-mcp version: latest (uvx remarkable-mcp)\n- Transport: Cloud (REMARKABLE_TOKEN via environment variable)\n- reMarkable Connect subscription: active\n\n**Problem**\nAuthentication always fails with 400 Bad Request on a specific sync/v3 URL.\nThe URL and hash are always identical regardless of token:\n\n  400 Client Error: Bad Request for url:\n  https://internal.cloud.remarkable.com/sync/v3/files/8a2469797b082cbe6ad8ff9fc5a4b8ca161cc44f59542ebc9d3ace1ce5ee32dc\n\n[Read the thread](https://github.com/SamMorrowDrums/remarkable-mcp/issues/101) · 2026-06-06 · closed · external user · 4 comments\n\n### Export in pdf, ocr via google gemini\n\nThanks for your incredible work!\n\nI'm wondering why you chose google vision api, if let's say gemini flash can do the trick with pdf even simpplier and with a way better quality?\n\nThanks, af\n\n[Read the thread](https://github.com/SamMorrowDrums/remarkable-mcp/issues/44) · 2026-01-12 · closed · external user · 4 comments\n\n### Add a pluggable OCR provider interface\n\n## Summary\n\nAdd more OCR provider options beyond Google Vision and Tesseract.

If another thread invalidates the cache in that narrow gap, the second check starts a full USB HTTP traversal on the asyncio event-loop thread.\n\n## Impact\n\nResults remain correct, but all MCP tool handling can pause for the duration of the metadata traversal.\n\n## Expected behavior\n\nKeep the cached fast path, but ensure a cache miss a\n\n[Read the thread](https://github.com/SamMorrowDrums/remarkable-mcp/issues/179) · 2026-08-17 · open · 0 comments\n\n### Exclude trashed documents from lookup and resource registration\n\n## Problem\n\nA trashed document keeps its visible name.

So the same seven page notebook answers 1 from one tool and 7 from the other.\n\nThis affects any client that reads first and then iterates pages using the count it was given.

A client that doesn't pass the flag follows the annotation-only path: a page with ink renders as bare strokes floating on the background with no PDF page beneath them, and a page without ink falls back to rasterizing the clean source PDF. Neither response mentions the missing layer.
