MCP Server

Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Subscriberbot — a thin shell over @burdenoff/mcp-libs that exposes AI-assistant tools, resources, and prompts for the Subscriberbot platform via GraphQL.

All module logic (auth, sandbox, the subscriberbot product surface, and the shared platform modules) lives in @burdenoff/mcp-libs. This repository only:

  1. Builds the MCP context with Subscriberbot product defaults.
  2. Selects which modules to mount.
  3. Selects the transport (stdio by default, --http opt-in) and port.

Quick Start

1. Install Dependencies

cd ~/products/subscriberbot/subscriberbot-mcp
bun install

2. Configure in Claude Code

Add to your project's .mcp.json (or ~/.claude/settings.json under mcpServers):

{
"mcpServers": {
"subscriberbot": {
"type": "stdio",
"command": "bun",
"args": ["run", "~/products/subscriberbot/subscriberbot-mcp/src/index.ts"],
"env": {
"SUBSCRIBERBOT_WORKSPACE_ENDPOINT": "http://localhost:4003/workspaces/graphql",
"SUBSCRIBERBOT_GLOBAL_ENDPOINT": "http://localhost:4000/global/graphql",
"LOG_LEVEL": "error"
}
}
}
}

3. Authenticate

On first use, ask Claude to call subscriberbot_auth_login — it returns a verification URL and user code. Open the URL, enter the code, complete the login in the browser, then ask Claude to call subscriberbot_auth_complete. Tokens are persisted under ~/.config/subscriberbot-mcp/ (permissions 0o600) and auto-refresh before expiry.

Mounted Modules

The shell mounts the Subscriberbot product module plus the shared platform modules from @burdenoff/mcp-libs:

auth, subscriberbot, sandbox, rbac, organizations, tours, workspaces, groups, tags, files, conversations, security, integrations, channels, scheduler, export, notifications, support, products, devportal, billing, store.

Tool / resource / prompt names are product-prefixed (subscriberbot_*).

Development

git clone https://github.com/algoshred/subscriberbot-mcp.git
cd subscriberbot-mcp
bun install # Install dependencies
bun run dev # Dev server (stdio, hot reload)
bun run server:http # HTTP transport mode
bun run test # Run wiring tests (vitest)
bun run sanity # typecheck + lint + format + build
bun run build # Production build

Run as a binary after building:

node dist/index.js               # stdio transport
node dist/index.js --http --port 3030

Environment Variables

Defaults point at PROD. Override per environment via SUBSCRIBERBOT_* env vars:

VariableDefaultDescription
SUBSCRIBERBOT_WORKSPACE_ENDPOINThttps://graphqlworkspaces.burdenoff.com/workspaces/graphqlWorkspace gateway
SUBSCRIBERBOT_GLOBAL_ENDPOINThttps://graphql.burdenoff.com/global/graphqlGlobal gateway
SUBSCRIBERBOT_API_KEYAPI key auth (skips device code)
SUBSCRIBERBOT_ACCESS_TOKENPre-set access token
SUBSCRIBERBOT_WORKSPACE_IDPre-select workspace
SUBSCRIBERBOT_ORGANIZATION_IDPre-select organization
LOG_LEVELinfoLogging level (error/warn/info/debug)

See @burdenoff/mcp-libs (src/core/config/store.ts) for the full list.

Environment selection

The MCP server targets production by default. To use local or alpha, set BURDENOFF_ENV=local|alpha or pass explicit SUBSCRIBERBOT_* endpoint overrides. See Environment Selection for endpoint details.

Publishing

Publishing is held (pre-launch). Pushing to main runs only the green gate (lint, typecheck, test, build). Publishing @subscriberbot/mcp to npmjs happens only via the manual release.yml workflow (workflow_dispatch or a v* tag).
