How to Set Up and Use Limitless AI
The Limitless AI MCP Server connects AI assistants to your Limitless AI Pendant recordings, enabling you to search, retrieve, and analyze ambient audio captured throughout your day. It bridges the Limitless API with MCP-compatible clients like Claude Desktop, offering five specialized tools for querying lifelogs by ID, date, date range, or keyword. This server is ideal for anyone who wants to extract insights from their recorded meetings, conversations, and notes without manually reviewing recordings.
Prerequisites
- Node.js 22 or higher installed
- A Limitless AI Pendant device (the API only returns Pendant recordings)
- A Limitless API key from limitless.ai/developers
- An MCP-compatible client such as Claude Desktop, Cursor, or Windsurf
Obtain your Limitless API key
Visit limitless.ai/developers and sign in with your Limitless account. Generate an API key and keep it handy for the configuration step.
Install the npm package globally
Install the limitless-ai-mcp-server package globally using npm so it is available system-wide.
npm install -g limitless-ai-mcp-serverSet required environment variables
Export your Limitless API key. Optionally configure timeout, base URL, log level, and cache settings via environment variables.
export LIMITLESS_API_KEY="your-api-key-here"
export LIMITLESS_TIMEOUT=120000
export LOG_LEVEL="INFO"Add the server to your MCP client config
Open your Claude Desktop configuration file (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS) and add the server entry with your API key.
Restart your MCP client
Save the configuration file and fully restart Claude Desktop or your chosen MCP client so it picks up the new server definition.
Verify connectivity
Type a natural-language query in your AI client to confirm the server is working and can retrieve your recordings.

Example prompts you can use once the server is connected to your AI client.
- "Show me my recordings from today"
- "Search my lifelogs for mentions of the Q3 budget meeting"
- "List all recordings from last Monday"
- "Get the recording with ID <lifelog_id> and summarize the key decisions"
- "What topics came up most in my recordings this week?"Troubleshooting Limitless AI
The server starts but returns no recordings
The Limitless API only returns recordings captured by the physical Pendant device. Ensure your Pendant has synced recently and that the API key belongs to the account associated with the Pendant.
Authentication errors or 401 responses
Double-check that LIMITLESS_API_KEY is set correctly and that the key has not expired. Regenerate a new key at limitless.ai/developers if needed.
Command not found when starting the server
Ensure Node.js 22+ is active and the package is installed globally with `npm install -g limitless-ai-mcp-server`. If using nvm, confirm the correct Node version is active with `node --version`.
