Streamline MCP Server

The Streamline MCP Server provides a set of tools for MCP-compatible clients such as Cursor or Claude Desktop to access Streamline’s complete collection of icons, illustrations, elements, and emojis.
Clients can search, retrieve, and download assets in PNG or SVG formats.

🧩 Setup & Authentication

The Streamline MCP Server is available at:

https://public-api.streamlinehq.com/mcp

There are two ways to authenticate. Pick the one that matches your client.

🔐 Option 1 — OAuth (recommended for Claude Desktop & Web)

GUI clients that support custom connectors can authenticate with OAuth — no API key to copy or store.

1. In Claude, go to Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector.
2. Give it a name (e.g. Streamline MCP) and enter the server URL above.
3. Click Connect — you'll be redirected to the Streamline web app to sign in and grant access.
4. Back in Settings → Connectors, confirm the server shows a Connected status.

See the Claude connector guide for full details.

🔑 Option 2 — API key (X-API-Key header)

Config- or CLI-based clients (e.g. Cursor, Claude Code CLI) authenticate with an API key.
Generate and manage keys from your Streamline Account → API Settings page.

JSON config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "streamline": {
      "url": "https://public-api.streamlinehq.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "X-API-Key": "YOUR_API_KEY_HERE"
      }
    }
  }
}

Claude Code CLI:

claude mcp add --transport http streamline-mcp \
  https://public-api.streamlinehq.com/mcp \
  --header "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY_HERE"
