MCP server for [LamaTok](https://lamatok.com) — TikTok data API. Available on npm: [`lamatok-mcp`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/lamatok-mcp).

Auto-generates MCP tools from the LamaTok OpenAPI spec at startup, so every non-deprecated `GET` endpoint is exposed without hand-written wrappers. Tools map 1:1 to REST endpoints (`GET /v1/user/by/username` → `get_v1_user_by_username`).

## Get 100 Free API Requests

**[Sign up with this link](https://lamatok.com/p/s6kl8mtn)** and get **100 free LamaTok requests** — no credit card required. Enough to wire up the MCP server, try a few prompts in Claude/Cursor/Codex, and evaluate the data quality before committing.

## Quick start

1. Get an API key at [lamatok.com](https://lamatok.com).
2. Add the server to your AI assistant.
3. Ask your assistant something like:
- *"Get the TikTok profile for @nasa."*
- *"List the last 10 videos by user_id 6707206320333226502."*
- *"Find recent TikTok videos for the hashtag `photography`."*

### Claude Code

```bash
claude mcp add lamatok -e LAMATOK_KEY=your-api-key -- npx -y lamatok-mcp
```

### Claude Desktop

Add to `claude_desktop_config.json`:

```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"lamatok": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "lamatok-mcp"],
"env": {
"LAMATOK_KEY": "your-api-key"
}
}
}
}
```

### Cursor / Windsurf

Same shape as Claude Desktop — put the block under `mcpServers` in the app's MCP config file.

### Zed

Add to `~/.config/zed/settings.json`:

```json
{
"context_servers": {
"lamatok": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "lamatok-mcp"],
"env": {
"LAMATOK_KEY": "your-api-key"
}
}
}
}
```

### OpenAI Codex

Append to `~/.codex/config.toml`:

```toml
[mcp_servers.lamatok]
command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "lamatok-mcp"]

[mcp_servers.lamatok.env]
LAMATOK_KEY = "your-api-key"
```

## Tools

Tools are generated at startup from the live [LamaTok OpenAPI spec](https://api.lamatok.com/openapi.json), so the list always matches the current API. ~19 tools across these groups (sizes as of this writing):

| Group | Tools | Examples |
| ------------ | ----- | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `v1/user` | 9 | `get_v1_user_by_username`, `get_v1_user_by_id`, `get_v1_user_medias` |
| `v1/media` | 8 | `get_v1_media_info_by_id`, `get_v1_media_comments` |
| `v1/hashtag` | 2 | `get_v1_hashtag_medias_recent` |

Each tool name mirrors its endpoint (`GET /v1/user/by/username` → `get_v1_user_by_username`). Your assistant can call `tools/list` over MCP to get the full, up-to-date list with parameter schemas. `/sys`, `Legacy`, and `System` tag groups are excluded by default.

## Configuration

| Variable | Description | Required |
| ---------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | -------- |
| `LAMATOK_KEY` | Your LamaTok access key (sent as `x-access-key` header) | yes |
| `LAMATOK_URL` | Base URL. Default: `https://api.lamatok.com` | no |
| `LAMATOK_SPEC_URL` | OpenAPI spec URL. Default: `${LAMATOK_URL}/openapi.json` | no |
| `LAMATOK_TAGS` | Whitelist: only include operations with these tags (comma-separated) | no |
| `LAMATOK_EXCLUDE_TAGS` | Blacklist: additional tags to exclude (on top of `Legacy`, `System`, `/sys`) | no |
| `LAMATOK_TIMEOUT_MS` | Per-request timeout for API calls. Default: `30000` | no |
| `LAMATOK_SPEC_TIMEOUT_MS` | Timeout for the startup spec fetch. Default: `60000` | no |
| `LAMATOK_MAX_RESPONSE_BYTES` | Max bytes read from each API response. Default: `10485760` (10 MB) | no |
| `LAMATOK_MAX_SPEC_BYTES` | Max bytes read from the OpenAPI spec. Default: `8388608` (8 MB) | no |

`Legacy`, `System`, and `/sys` tags are excluded by default. Deprecated operations are also skipped.

If `LAMATOK_URL` points to a host other than `api.lamatok.com`, the server prints a warning on startup — your key will be sent there, so only use it for a self-hosted or proxied LamaTok.

## How it works

```
AI Assistant ←stdio→ lamatok-mcp ──https──> api.lamatok.com

└─ fetches /openapi.json once on startup,
builds one MCP tool per GET endpoint
```

Tool arguments map to the endpoint's `query` and `path` parameters. The response body is returned as-is (JSON text). Non-2xx responses are surfaced as tool errors with the HTTP status and body.

## Development

```bash
git clone https://github.com/subzeroid/lamatok-mcp.git
cd lamatok-mcp
npm install
npm run build
LAMATOK_KEY=your-key node dist/index.js
```

Run in watch mode:

```bash
LAMATOK_KEY=your-key npm run dev
```

Run tests (unit + stdio smoke tests against a local mock server, no network/API key required):

```bash
npm test
```
