How do I install Brainllm?

Copy the stdio config for Cursor, Claude Desktop, Claude Code, or VS Code on this page. It uses the publisher's install, not a PlugMCP proxy.

Does Brainllm need an API key?

The publisher lists these environment variables: TRILIUM_BASE_URL, TRILIUM_ETAPI_TOKEN, TRILIUM_PASSWORD, BRAINLLM_MODE, BRAINLLM_TZ, BRAINLLM_OWNER_PASSWORD, BRAINLLM_OAUTH_SECRET, BRAINLLM_PUBLIC_URL, BRAINLLM_ALLOW_UNAUTHENTICATED_HTTP, BRAINLLM_TRUST_PROXY.

What transport does Brainllm use?

Brainllm runs locally over stdio.

Credentials from the publisher

TRILIUM_BASE_URL — Base URL of the TriliumNext instance, e.g. http://localhost:8080
TRILIUM_ETAPI_TOKEN — ETAPI token. Required unless TRILIUM_PASSWORD is set. Create one in Trilium under Options → ETAPI.
TRILIUM_PASSWORD — Alternative to TRILIUM_ETAPI_TOKEN — BrainLLM mints a token on first start and caches it beside brainllm.json.
BRAINLLM_MODE — core (default) exposes the 45 brain-aware tools; full additionally exposes the 33 raw ETAPI tools.
BRAINLLM_TZ — IANA timezone used to stamp dated notes, e.g. Africa/Johannesburg. Defaults to the host timezone.
BRAINLLM_OWNER_PASSWORD — Enables the OAuth 2.1 / CIMD endpoints required by claude.ai and other hosted Claude surfaces. This is the password entered on the consent screen when authorizing a client.
BRAINLLM_OAUTH_SECRET — Optional 32+ character deployment secret for signing OAuth tokens; rotate it to invalidate old tokens.
BRAINLLM_PUBLIC_URL — Override for the public origin when a proxy rewrites Host. Must exactly match the URL entered in the client.
BRAINLLM_ALLOW_UNAUTHENTICATED_HTTP — Explicit trusted-network-only escape hatch for HTTP mode. Never enable on a public interface.
BRAINLLM_TRUST_PROXY — Trust forwarded host/protocol headers for OAuth discovery only when a trusted reverse proxy sets them.

Claude Code has no install link for a local command. Copy the command below and run it in a terminal.
