External API Tools
Use Write2Notes from your terminal, MCP client, Codex, or Claude
The agent tools package gives subscribers a CLI, MCP server, and agent skills for checking credits, converting files, compiling LaTeX with figures, and refining previous outputs.
One link for agent setup
Paste the repo link or the prompt below into Codex or Claude. The agent can install the package, read the matching skill instructions, and configure MCP without seeing your raw API key.
https://github.com/write2notes/write2notes-agent-tools
Install the Write2Notes Agent Tools from https://github.com/write2notes/write2notes-agent-tools. Set up the CLI, configure MCP if available, and use the matching Codex or Claude skill instructions. Do not ask me to paste my API key into chat; tell me how to set WRITE2NOTES_API_KEY in my local shell or MCP environment.
Install locally
During invite-only beta, GitHub access may be required. After installing, set your API key in the local environment and run the readiness check.
1. Install the package
python3 -m pip install "write2notes-agent-tools[mcp] @ git+https://github.com/write2notes/write2notes-agent-tools.git"2. Set your API key and verify
export WRITE2NOTES_API_KEY="w2n_live_..."
write2notes checkWhat the tools include
CLI
Convert files, check credits, compile LaTeX, download outputs, and send feedback from a shell.
MCP server
Expose Write2Notes actions as tools for MCP-compatible agents and desktop clients.
Agent skills
Give Codex and Claude concise instructions for safe token handling and correct API workflows.
Conversion controls
Files and outputs
Convert PDF, JPG, PNG, HEIC, or HEIF files into DOCX, Markdown, or LaTeX+PDF. A single request can combine up to 20 files into one output.
Presets and instructions
Choose presets for notes, summaries, exams, homework, problem solving, formula sheets, translation, slides, or custom instructions.
Advanced AI
Use Advanced AI for complex handwriting, diagrams, low-quality scans, and richer figure handling. It costs 3× credits and requires Standard or Premium.
Accessible output
Request accessibility-enhanced DOCX or tagged LaTeX/PDF output with document structure, metadata, headings, and figure alt text where supported. Accessible LaTeX+PDF uses modern PDF tagging; local compilation requires TeX Live 2025 with current packages and LuaLaTeX — pdfLaTeX, XeLaTeX, and other engines will not work.
Common commands
These commands use the same external API as the dashboard API key page.

API keys are only shown once in the dashboard. Keep them in your local environment or MCP client settings. Do not paste raw keys into prompts, shared files, or public issue trackers.
