## The problem

Your notes and your tools do not talk; you paste context by hand every time.

## How Plexii handles it

Turn on the local API on your computer, create read or read/write tokens, and connect your own scripts or AI tools over MCP.

In short: Turn on a local API, create a read-only token, and your own scripts and AI tools can read your desks. Off until you switch it on.
