README
> [!WARNING]\
> This MCP server uses the `polarsteps-api` package to access Polarsteps data through undocumented APIs. **Important**: Please read the associated [legal disclaimer and terms of use](https://github.com/remuzel/polarsteps-api#terms-of-use) before using this tool. By using this MCP server, you agree to the terms outlined in the API package and acknowledge the associated risks.
# Polarsteps MCP Server
A [Model Context Protocol (MCP)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) server that enables Claude and other AI assistants to access Polarsteps travel data. Query user profiles, trip details, travel statistics, and search through travel histories with natural language.
 [](https://smithery.ai/server/@remuzel/polarsteps-mcp)
## Features
- **User Profiles**: Get profile info, social stats, and travel metrics
- **Trip Data**: Access detailed trip information, timelines, and locations
- **Smart Search**: Find trips by destination, theme, or keywords with fuzzy matching
- **Travel Analytics**: Retrieve comprehensive travel statistics and achievements
## Quick Start
Until I add it to PyPI, the quickest way to get started is using [Smithery](https://smithery.ai/server/@remuzel/polarsteps-mcp):
```bash
npx -y @smithery/cli install @remuzel/polarsteps-mcp --client claude
```
Then configure your Polarsteps token.
## Configuration
You'll need your Polarsteps `remember_token` to authenticate API requests.
### Getting Your Token
1. Go to https://www.polarsteps.com/ and make sure you're logged in
2. Open your browser's Dev Tools:
- **Firefox**: Shift+F9 → Storage tab
- **Chrome**: F12 → Application tab → Cookies
3. Find the `remember_token` cookie for https://www.polarsteps.com
4. Copy the token value
### Setting the Token
Set your token as an environment variable:
```bash
export POLARSTEPS_REMEMBER_TOKEN="your_remember_token_here"
```
## Usage
### With Claude Desktop
Add this configuration to your Claude Desktop settings:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"polarsteps": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["--from", "git+https://github.com/remuzel/polarsteps-mcp", "polarsteps-mcp"],
"env": {
"POLARSTEPS_REMEMBER_TOKEN": "your_remember_token_here"
}
}
}
}
```
### Example Queries
Once configured, you can ask Claude things like:
- "Show me travel stats for username 'johndoe'"
- "Tell me about johndoe's trip to Japan"
- "What country should johndoe add to their bucketlist?"
### Local Testing
Test the MCP server locally with the inspector:
```bash
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector uvx --from git+https://github.com/remuzel/polarsteps-mcp polarsteps-mcp
```
