Granola Local Dev Loop

Overview

Access Granola meeting data programmatically using three methods: the local cache file (zero-auth, offline), the MCP server (AI agent integration), or the Enterprise API (workspace-wide access). Build developer workflows that turn meeting outcomes into code tasks, documentation, and project artifacts.

Prerequisites

• Granola installed with meetings captured
• Node.js 18+ or Python 3.10+ for scripts
• For MCP: Claude Code, Cursor, or another MCP-compatible client
• For Enterprise API: Business/Enterprise plan + API key

Instructions

Step 1 — Read the Local Cache (Zero Auth)

Granola stores meeting data in a local JSON cache file:

# macOS cache location
CACHE_FILE="$HOME/Library/Application Support/Granola/cache-v3.json"
