This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

run in your terminal
claude mcp add repeaterbook -- uvx repeaterbook
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "repeaterbook": {
      "args": [

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: REPEATERBOOK_APP_TOKEN (Per-user RepeaterBook 'rbuapp_' API token. Required: every export needs an approved token, and the server refuses to start without it. No application registration needed - log in to your RepeaterBook account, open https://www.repeaterbook.com/user/api_apps.php, find 'RepeaterBook Python Client' (App #114), and generate a token for it.), REPEATERBOOK_WORKING_DIR (Where the SQLite database and HTTP cache live. Created if missing; a leading '~' is expanded.), REPEATERBOOK_APP_CONTACT (Contact address used in the API User-Agent. Leave unset: it defaults to the address registered for App #114, and any other value returns 403 ua_mismatch. Set it only if you registered your own separate application with RepeaterBook.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

RepeaterBook — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for RepeaterBook?
RepeaterBook runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the pypi package repeaterbook was installed 2 683 times last week.
How do I connect RepeaterBook?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls repeaterbook straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use RepeaterBook?
The pypi package repeaterbook was installed 2 683 times in the last week. Week over week that is +68%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is RepeaterBook open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python, 3 stars on GitHub and 5 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
