Playbook MCP: find and organize creative files with AI

Playbook is a media backend for creative files, and its MCP server lets an AI assistant search, organize, tag, upload and share files and folders. ContextGate connects it to Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor through a browser sign-in. Sharing sends work to other people, so that tool can be switched off while search and tagging stay available.
