Yarr MCP

Overview

Yarr MCP is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server: Rust MCP and CLI server for Sonarr, Radarr, Prowlarr, Plex, Jellyfin, and download clients. In practice that means any MCP-compatible AI assistant can call Yarr MCP's tools directly — the model decides when to use them in a conversation or agent run.

It runs locally: the npm package yarr-mcp speaks MCP over stdio on your machine. The current release is v1.1.1, published under the AGPL-3.0 license, with source at jmagar/yarr on GitHub.

Yarr MCP is listed under Development 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.
