Ani MCP

Overview

Ani MCP is a Model Context Protocol server that connects to AniList to understand your anime and manga preferences through intelligent analysis rather than raw API calls. It integrates directly into AI assistants as tools they can invoke, giving them context about your taste in anime and manga.

The server runs locally via the npm package ani-mcp, communicating over stdio on your machine. Install it with npx -y ani-mcp and provide your AniList API Key to authenticate. The latest release is v0.15.7, distributed under the MIT license with source code available at gavxm/ani-mcp on GitHub.

Ani MCP belongs in the AI & Agents category and works with MCP clients including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, and others. If you maintain this server, claim your listing to earn verification and keep information up to date.
