Quick Start

Configure at least one service in your MCP client's configuration:

Minimal Radarr-only Setup

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "media-server": {
      "command": "deno",
      "args": ["run", "--allow-all", "jsr:@wyattjoh/media-server-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "RADARR_URL": "http://localhost:7878",
        "RADARR_API_KEY": "your-radarr-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Minimal Sonarr-only Setup

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "media-server": {
      "command": "deno",
      "args": ["run", "--allow-all", "jsr:@wyattjoh/media-server-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "SONARR_URL": "http://localhost:8989",
        "SONARR_API_KEY": "your-sonarr-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Minimal TMDB-only Setup

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "media-server": {
      "command": "deno",
      "args": ["run", "--allow-all", "jsr:@wyattjoh/media-server-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "TMDB_API_KEY": "your-tmdb-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
