What it does

The specific capability behind this listing, and where to get it.

Penlog is an Apple Pencil journaling app for iPad that reads each handwritten page into structured tasks, notes, and priorities. Its MCP server exposes that journal to your AI: search pages by topic, pull open tasks with reconciled status, read a full day's page, and create or update tasks that appear on your handwritten page and sync to Notion. Write by hand. Work with everything. **Tools** - `list_pages`: list journal pages by date - `get_page`: full OCR text and structured lines for one day - `search_pages`: full-text search across handwritten pages - `list_tasks`: open and done tasks with reconciled status - `create_task_seed`: add a task onto a page (syncs to Notion) - `update_task`: mark done or undone, or edit a task
