AniList MCP Server

Overview

AniList MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server: MCP server for the AniList GraphQL API — anime/manga search, details, and personal list management. In practice that means any MCP-compatible AI assistant can call AniList MCP Server's tools directly — the model decides when to use them in a conversation or agent run.

It runs locally: the npm package anilist-mcp-server speaks MCP over stdio on your machine. The current release is v0.8.0, published under the MIT license, with source at Grinv/anilist-mcp-server on GitHub.

AniList MCP Server is listed under AI & Agents on mcp.site and works with any MCP client — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed and the rest of the ecosystem — using the install snippets below.
