MCP server for Hotkeyless AHK HTTP API.

Install

Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).

NPM package @tim0_12432/hotkeyless-ahk-mcp-server
Claude Code
claude mcp add hotkeylessahk-mcp-skill -e 'BASE_URL=<BASE_URL>' -e 'TIMEOUT_MS=<TIMEOUT_MS>' -e 'BLACKLIST=<BLACKLIST>' -e 'CACHE_TTL_MS=<CACHE_TTL_MS>' -e 'ENDPOINT_LIST=<ENDPOINT_LIST>' -e 'ENDPOINT_TRIGGER=<ENDPOINT_TRIGGER>' -- npx -y @tim0_12432/hotkeyless-ahk-mcp-server@1.0.8

Agent Skills

Quick start
OpenCode
  1. Copy the ./skills/.opencode/... folders to
    • .opencode/skills for project specific skill setup
    • %USERPROFILE%/.config/opencode/skills for global setup
  2. You can adjust AGENTS.md, custom subagents or custom commands to reference the skills
  3. Restart your OpenCode (CLI or Desktop)
  4. When asking the agent to use the "hotkeyless AHK skills" it should now use the skill guide
ClaudeCode
  1. Copy the ./skills/.claude/... folders to
    • .claude/skills for project specific skill setup
    • %USERPROFILE%/.config/claude-code/skills for global setup
  2. You can adjust CLAUDE.md, custom subagents or custom commands to reference the skills
  3. Restart your Claude Code
  4. When asking the agent to use the "hotkeyless AHK skills" it should now use the skill guide
