MCP server for searching and retrieving SAP Notes / KB articles with full metadata extraction
[](https://opensource.org/licenses/Apache-2.0) [](https://nodejs.org/) [](https://www.typescriptlang.org/)
[!CAUTION] This MCP Server uses private APIs from SAP behind authentication. Please check whether the use violates SAP's ToS. The author assumes no liability for this. Because of this i do not guarantee that the server will always work.
This Model Context Protocol (MCP) server gives AI coding assistants (Cursor, Claude Desktop, VS Code, etc.) direct access to SAP Notes and Knowledge Base articles. It authenticates with SAP via username/password or SAP Passport certificate and uses Playwright browser automation to retrieve actual note content.

What credentials does SAP Note Search need?
It reads ACCESS_TOKEN, AUTH_METHOD, PFX_PASSPHRASE, SAP_NOTES_TOKEN_CACHE_FILE, SAP_PASSWORD and TOKEN_CACHE_FILE from the environment. Give it a token scoped to the least it needs — an agent that can be talked into calling a tool can be talked into calling it with your credentials.
