Hjarni for AI agents

Hjarni is a personal knowledge management platform for organizing, searching, and linking notes and tags. Individuals and small teams use it to keep this organized without extra manual upkeep. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.

04 · AUTH AND DATA

How Hjarni connects.

Users add their Hjarni api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.

The same Hjarni connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →

07 · FAQ

Hjarni and Arc0, answered.

Q01

Can I use Hjarni with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect Hjarni to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Hjarni actions you allow.

Q02

How do users connect Hjarni?

Users add their Hjarni api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.

Q03

Which Hjarni actions can my agent take?

15 in total: 6 read, 8 write and 1 destructive, such as “create Tag”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.

Q04

Can I stop my agent from deleting things in Hjarni?

Yes. Actions like “move Note to Trash” are graded destructive. Set destructive actions to deny, or to ask so the user approves each one, and blocked calls still show up on the audit log.

Q05

Can my own backend call Hjarni too?

Yes. The same Hjarni connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
