Glassy Docs¶
Installation, configuration, and the reference surface for Glassy.¶
A quiet workspace for the people who think in 47 tabs, 12 notebooks, and a voice memo they forgot to label. This site is the canonical reference — installation, core features, integrations, self-hosting, and the API surface — kept in lockstep with the shipping app.
Pick a path¶
Getting Started
Set up your account, create your first note, and connect the Companion extension.
Start here →Second Brain
The MCP server, hybrid search, and the knowledge base layer that connects to your AI tools.
Open →Glassy Companion
The browser extension — capture, screenshots, and the Obsidian bridge.
Capture →Self-Hosting
Run Glassy on your own machine with the Docker appliance. Local-first, no telemetry.
Deploy →Clear Community
The hosted community instance — multi-user, transparent, no vendor lock-in.
Tour →Integrations
MCP server, agent gateway, Obsidian vault, and incoming webhooks.
Wire up →For contributors¶
The docs site is built with Material for MkDocs and lives in the 0Reliance/glassy-docs repository. Pages are flat Markdown — frontmatter controls nav metadata, sections, and review dates.

The docs surface is the canonical reference — keep it in lockstep with the shipping app. If a docs issue reflects a shipped product mismatch, update the source-of-truth first, then the docs. See Contributing to Documentation for the full guide.
