Calibre Mcp

Overview

Calibre Mcp is a Model Context Protocol server that brings your Calibre ebook library into AI assistants. Search your collection, read content, manage metadata, perform semantic search, and handle gated write operations—all through Claude, Cursor, VS Code, and other MCP clients.

The server runs locally on your machine via the npm package calibre-mcp, communicating over stdio with no authentication required. Install with npx -y calibre-mcp and start using it immediately. Version v0.7.4 is available under the MIT license, with full source code at caelum29/calibre-mcp on GitHub.

Calibre Mcp appears in the Search category on mcp.site and works with Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, and other MCP clients. If you maintain this project, claim your listing to verify ownership and keep information up to date.
