Stript MCP Bridge

@stript/mcp is a local Model Context Protocol server that lets Claude (Desktop and Code) anonymize documents through the Stript desktop app on your own machine — so personal data never enters the conversation.

Requires the Stript desktop app with AI integrations enabled in Settings. The bridge does nothing on its own; it is a thin, local client to the app.

What it does

Claude hands the bridge a local reference — a file path, the clipboard, or an existing Stript document id. The bridge asks the local Stript app to detect personal data and replace it with consistent placeholders like [PERSON_1]. Only the anonymized text is returned to the conversation. Restored (real-PII) output is written to your clipboard or a local file and is never returned to the model.

Install

Claude Desktop — install the signed Stript.mcpb from the Stript app (Settings → Install for Claude Desktop), or from https://downloads.stript.io/Stript.mcpb.

Claude Code:

claude mcp add stript -- npx -y @stript/mcp

Tools

Tool	Purpose	Nature
Check the Stript app status	Confirm the app is running and reachable	read-only
Anonymize a document with Stript	Detect + replace PII in a file on disk	writes anonymized output
Anonymize the clipboard text with Stript	Same, for the current clipboard (opt-in; Claude asks first)	writes anonymized output
Fetch a Stript anonymization result	Retrieve a completed result	read-only
Restore original values into placeholder text	Put the real values back (to clipboard or a local file)	writes locally, never to chat
Restore original values into a file	Restore a full file on disk	writes locally, never to chat

How it works — privacy by design

• The bridge talks only to 127.0.0.1: the Stript app's local backend and a loopback broker inside the signed app. It makes no external network calls with your content.
• A per-launch, scope-restricted token gates every call; ports and token rotate on each launch.
• Restored real values never enter tool results — they are written to your clipboard or a local file only.
• New documents meter through the same local path as the app; the bridge keeps only a small local usage-metering mirror and nothing else persistent.

Privacy Policy

Stript is local-first. From the Stript Privacy Policy:

"Your documents are processed exclusively on your own device."

"No document content, file name, path, document identifier, source commitment, mapping, detection result, entity information, or export activity is transmitted to us or any third party."

This bridge inherits that guarantee:

• Collects and transmits no document content. All detection and anonymization run locally in the Stript app; the bridge only shuttles data between Claude and the local app over loopback.
• Stores nothing beyond a local usage-metering mirror on your own machine.
• Shares nothing with third parties — it makes no off-device network calls.

The broader Stript product's data handling — optional account email, payment processing via Lemon Squeezy, hosting and privacy-preserving analytics via Cloudflare, transactional email via Resend, and the associated retention periods and contact details — is described in full in the Privacy Policy.
