SystemPrompt MCP Notion Server

A high-performance Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that seamlessly integrates Notion into your AI workflows. This server enables AI agents to interact with Notion pages and databases through a standardized protocol. This server supports MCP Sampling, which is required to the MCP to create and update Notion pages.

A compatible MCP client is available here. Complicated AI usage is managed by sampling and LLMs.
