Mousetail's goal is to be the simplest and most reliable way of connecting Anki to an LLM. It does not require any addons, just have anki installed and an LLM you'd like to connect to your decks.

Running the server is as simple as:

```bash
uvx mousetail
```

For detailed instructions on integrating with Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and other LLM tools:

**[Usage Guide](https://listfold.github.io/mousetail/usage.html)**

**[API Reference](https://listfold.github.io/mousetail/api/index.html)**

## Features
- **Minimal** - supports core anki operations: create, read, update and delete
- **Stable** - works directly with anki's stable pylib api, no addons or deps
- **Simple** - no configuration required, automatically discovers your Anki collections

## Use Cases

Selectively commit what you learn in conversation with an LLM to memory
 
> "Create a deck based on our conversation so I don't forget critical details"

Use an LLM to interact with your deck

> "Create a card - what is a coeffcient?, create a card - id the first coefficient in this polynomial"

Use an LLM to cleanup a deck
> "Check my french vocab deck for correctness and correct any mistakes, typos or errors"

## Syncing

Mousetail supports synchronizing your Anki collection with AnkiWeb or a self-hosted sync server. This allows you to keep your collection in sync across devices.
