io.github.oktopeak/clio-mcpv2.2.0Filesystem

Connect Claude to Clio: 34 tools for matters, custom fields, notes, documents, folders, billing.

The current version, v2.2.0, was published to the official MCP registry on 2026-09-02. It is distributed as @oktopeak/clio-mcp on npm, filed under Filesystem by this index, and declares 10 environment variables. Removals and unreachable sources are measured across every server this index tracks, contract drift across the servers that answer in consecutive snapshots; the index's current counts put this record in context.

Using io.github.oktopeak/clio-mcp in Claude, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Cline, or Zed?

MCP tool contracts can change remotely with no version bump. The mcpindex gate pins each contract and HOLDs the call when it drifts-before your agent acts. Zero credentials. This is not the package install for this server itself (use Install this server for that).

Limits of this verdict

- Semantic screen only - the deterministic conformance probe has not run on this server
- Confidence is reported but not yet calibrated (v1)
- Screen reads the tool description, not the live behavior
- advisory
- registry description only no input schema
- screen model 8b

Semantic screen: an LLM judge reads the tool description for hidden instructions (status PARTIAL). A pass means the description is not lying, not that the tool is safe: a high-capability tool with an honest description still warrants caution. The deterministic conformance probe has not been run on this server yet, so the screen here is semantic-only. Posture: advisory. Confidences are reported but not yet calibrated (calibrated=false at v1). Full verdict history is not shown on this page.

That verdict was true at screening time (snapshot 2026-09-15).

Contracts can change after screening, with no version bump. The gate pins io.github.oktopeak/clio-mcp’s tool contracts on first sight and holds any silent change before your agent acts - the check that keeps being true on Tuesday.

Cite this record

People vet a server before wiring it in. One line on your project site or docs answers that with an independent record: screening verdict, registry provenance, contract drift history. It stays current as new screens and drift events land.

Environment variables

CLIO_CLIENT_ID

required

Client ID from your Clio developer application (Settings → Developer Applications)

CLIO_CLIENT_SECRET

requiredsecret

Client Secret from your Clio developer application

ENCRYPTION_KEY

secret

Optional. Leave unset to auto-generate a key stored in the OS keychain (or ~/.clio-mcp/key.hex as fallback on headless Linux/WSL2). If set, must be a 64-character hex string — it will be migrated to the OS keychain on first use.

CLIO_REDIRECT_PORT

Local port for the OAuth callback listener (default: 5678). Change if 5678 is in use.

CLIO_REGION

Clio data region: 'us' (default, app.clio.com), 'eu' (eu.app.clio.com), 'au' (au.app.clio.com), or 'ca' (ca.app.clio.com). Controls the API and OAuth base URLs. Fixed at Clio account creation; must match the server your firm logs in to. Any other value stops startup.

READ_ONLY

Optional. 'true', '1' or 'yes' leaves the nine write tools (create_matter, create_note, create_task, update_task, complete_task, create_calendar_entry, log_time_entry, create_activity, upload_document) unregistered so Claude can read Clio but never change it. Works on both transports.

CLIO_API_BASE

Advanced override for the Clio API base URL (e.g. https://eu.app.clio.com/api/v4). Takes precedence over CLIO_REGION.

CLIO_AUTH_URL

Override the OAuth authorization endpoint (e.g. https://eu.app.clio.com/oauth/authorize).

CLIO_TOKEN_URL

Override the OAuth token endpoint (e.g. https://eu.app.clio.com/oauth/token).

TOKEN_BROKER_URL

required

URL of Oktopeak's hosted token broker for the Clio App Directory listed install. Do not set CLIO_CLIENT_ID/CLIO_CLIENT_SECRET alongside this — the shared app's secret lives only on the broker, never on this machine.

Provenance

Each verdict is bound to a hash of the exact description it judged, so a re-crawl that changes the text produces a new record rather than silently inheriting this one. Verdict history is hash-chained and anchored to Bitcoin via OpenTimestamps (latest confirmed at block 966,915). Verify it yourself.
