Read and edit Notion pages and databases straight from Claude Code.

What it is

The Notion MCP connects Claude Code to your Notion workspace. Claude can read pages, edit them, create new ones, and query databases — all from the terminal. No more browser switching.

Install / Setup

Option 1 — Terminal (remote server):

claude mcp add --scope user --transport http notion https://mcp.notion.com/mcp

First call triggers an OAuth login into your Notion workspace.

Option 2 — Prompt Claude Code:

Install the Notion MCP server (remote: https://mcp.notion.com/mcp) via claude mcp add, walk me through the Notion OAuth, then run /mcp to confirm it's live.

Or go local with a token: claude mcp add notion -e NOTION_TOKEN=ntn_xxx -- npx -y @notionhq/notion-mcp-server (grab the token at notion.so/my-integrations).

Use cases

• Auto-log meeting notes — Claude writes the transcript summary into your meeting DB as a new page.
• Query your task DB — "What are my open high-priority tasks?" — Claude reads the DB and answers.
• Search your wiki — Instead of hunting in Notion, Claude pulls the relevant pages and summarizes.
• Run your content calendar — New post draft lands directly in your content DB with every property filled.
• Sync project updates — Claude pushes status from your codebase into the Notion project page.

Pro tip

Only give the MCP access to the Notion pages and DBs you actually need (integration permissions). Full workspace access sounds handy until Claude overwrites the wrong page.

🚀 Anyone can install MCPs. Knowing which combo actually moves the needle for your workflow — that saves you weeks. Inside the community I share my full MCP stack. → Join the Claude Code Mastery Community
