Circleback MCP Server
Provider-hosted MCP server that exposes Circleback meeting notes, transcripts, action items, calendar events, and emails to AI assistants over OAuth.
Circleback MCP is the official, provider-hosted Model Context Protocol server from Circleback, an AI meeting notes tool. It gives AI clients like Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Raycast, Claude Code, and Codex secure, read access to a user's Circleback workspace, including meeting summaries, full transcripts, action items, calendar events, and connected email threads. The server is centrally hosted by Circleback at https://app.circleback.ai/api/mcp and uses OAuth with dynamic client registration over Streamable HTTP, so there is nothing to install locally.
What makes the server notable is the breadth of context it covers in a single connector. Beyond meeting notes and transcripts, it also surfaces calendar events, email threads, people profiles, and company domains, letting an AI assistant cross-reference what was discussed in a meeting with related calendar invites and follow-up emails. Tool coverage includes structured search across meetings, transcripts, action items, calendar, and email, as well as profile and domain lookups for relationship context.
Access requires a Circleback paid plan, and on the Claude side requires a Pro, Max, Team, or Enterprise subscription. Authentication is per-user, so each connection only exposes meetings and data that the authenticated user already has access to inside Circleback. The connection persists and refreshes automatically.

Circleback hosts the MCP server itself, so there is no package to install. You connect by pointing your AI client at the remote server URL and authenticating with OAuth.

- Ask Claude to summarize all meetings with a given customer in the past quarter, pulling action items and key topics straight from Circleback.
- Have Cursor reference the transcript of a planning meeting while implementing the feature it described, including exact speaker quotes with timestamps.
- Generate a weekly status update by aggregating open action items assigned to you across all meetings and tagged projects.
- Pre-brief an upcoming calendar event by retrieving the attendees' prior meeting history, related email threads, and last action items discussed.
- Find every mention of a specific product, competitor, or contract term across all recorded transcripts and link back to the source meeting.
- "Find every meeting with anyone @acme.com in the last 60 days and list the open action items assigned to me."
- "Search transcripts for any mention of 'renewal pricing' and quote the exact lines with timestamps."
- "I have a call with Jane Smith tomorrow, summarize our last three meetings and any related email threads."
- "List all action items tagged 'launch' that are still open, grouped by assignee."
- "What did we decide about the onboarding flow in last Tuesday's product sync? Pull the relevant transcript section."
- Official, vendor-hosted server with no local install or token management; OAuth handles auth and refresh automatically.
- Broad context coverage in a single connector: meetings, transcripts, action items, calendar, email, people, and companies.
- Works out of the box with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Raycast, Claude Code, and Codex via the standard MCP remote spec.
- Respects existing Circleback permissions, so users only see data they already have access to.
- Requires a paid Circleback plan, and Claude usage requires a Pro, Max, Team, or Enterprise subscription.
- Read-only: there are no tools for creating meetings, editing notes, or updating action items from the AI client.
- Closed-source and provider-hosted, so self-hosting and custom extensions are not possible.
- Fireflies.ai MCP integrations for transcripts and meeting search.
- Granola or Fathom connectors where available for meeting notes context.
- Google Calendar and Gmail MCP servers for calendar and email context without the meeting intelligence layer.
