Why

30book has no public API and its list pages are drawn by a live Blazor Server session, so a plain scraper sees empty pages. This server speaks that protocol (SignalR long polling, no browser needed) and parses the book pages, so an agent can answer "cheapest edition of Little Prince with a hard cover", "everything by this translator under 300,000 Toman" or "what are the best sellers in history" in a few calls.

Quick start

You need uv.

claude mcp add 30book -- uvx 30book-mcp

Other clients (Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code): run the command uvx with argument 30book-mcp. Behind a proxy, set SIBOOK_MCP_PROXY=http://host:port (system proxy variables are ignored on purpose).

Tools

All tools are read-only and prefixed sb_. Prices are Toman.

How it works

• Book pages, the home page and landing pages are plain server-rendered HTML and are parsed directly.
• Search, category, publisher, author, genre and tag pages are built after load by a Blazor Server circuit. The server opens one over SignalR long polling, applies the binary render batches to a small DOM (blazor.py) and reads the cards. Paging, sort and filters are URL query parameters (pg, sort, qt, pub, wtr, inp, stp), so no clicks are simulated; only the name boxes on the publisher and author index pages use a fired event.
• HTML prices are Toman; the JSON-LD on book pages is Rial (x10) and is only used for sold-out books.
• List pages take 2 to 5 seconds, book pages about 1 second. Stock is yes/no only.

FAQ

Does it buy anything? No. It never logs in and never calls cart, checkout, wishlist or review endpoints.

Why is a search sometimes empty? The site stores some names with Arabic yeh / kaf; try a shorter word or extended=true.

Is it affiliated with 30book? No. Unofficial; keep the request rate low.
