SansFiction MCP & Agent Skill
Connect AI agents to **SansFiction** — a digital library for books, collections, reading journals, and discovery.
The same capabilities are exposed two ways, both authenticated with the same bearer token:
- MCP server (Streamable HTTP):
https://sansfiction.com/api/mcp - REST API (v1):
https://sansfiction.com/api/v1
Quick start (MCP)
claude mcp add --transport http sansfiction https://sansfiction.com/api/mcp
Or point any MCP client at the streamable-HTTP endpoint above. Public catalog tools need no auth; personal library tools require a bearer token (generate one at sansfiction.com/docs/agents).
Quick start (REST)
# Public catalog — no auth
curl "https://sansfiction.com/api/v1/catalog/search?q=dune&limit=5"
# Personal library — bearer token
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $SF_TOKEN" \
"https://sansfiction.com/api/v1/library/books?status=reading"
Capabilities
Public catalog (no auth)

Discovery
- Agent Skill:
SKILL.md— also served athttps://sansfiction.com/.well-known/agent-skills/sansfiction-catalog/SKILL.md - MCP Registry manifest:

Authentication
Generate a personal access token (sf_mcp_…) while signed in at
sansfiction.com/docs/agents. The same token
authenticates both the MCP server and the REST API. Rate limits: 60 req/min
anonymous, 180 req/min authenticated.
License
The SansFiction service is proprietary. This repository documents its public agent interface for discovery and integration.
Run locally as an MCP server (stdio)
This repo also ships a small stdio MCP server that proxies to the hosted REST API, so you can run it anywhere an MCP client expects a local command:
npx sansfiction-mcp
# or
npm install && node index.js
Environment variables:
SANSFICTION_TOKEN— bearer token (sf_mcp_…) for the personal-library tools (generate at https://sansfiction.com/docs/agents). Public catalog tools need none.SANSFICTION_BASE_URL— override the API base (defaulthttps://sansfiction.com).
Tools: search_books, get_book, get_series, list_public_collections,
list_my_books, add_book_to_library, update_library_book,
remove_book_from_library, search_my_library, list_my_collections,
get_reading_stats.
Glama build configuration
- Build steps:
["npm install"] - CMD arguments:
["mcp-proxy","--","node","index.js"]
tools/list requires no network or credentials, so the introspection check passes
without a token.
