Flash MCP Server

Spaced-repetition flashcards you study with your AI. Flash is a small self-hosted server: a web app for your decks and an MCP server that lets Claude, ChatGPT, Grok or any MCP client create cards from what you're learning, quiz you out loud, grade your answers and file the reviews with the FSRS scheduler. One Rust binary, one SQLite file, no accounts anywhere but yours.

Teams that work with anki, flashcards and self hosted and want a hosted endpoint instead of running a local process. The project is written in Rust.
