MCP server for managing Kwork freelance marketplace

Project description

kwork-mcp

CI PyPI Downloads Python 3.12+ License: MIT Ruff MCP

MCP server that exposes 25 tools for the Kwork freelance marketplace — browse projects, submit offers, manage orders, send messages, and more.

Built with FastMCP 3.x and pykwork.

Highlights

  • Tool annotations — read-only, write, and destructive hints for safer agent interactions
  • Input validation — all parameters validated before API calls
  • Auto-relogin — automatic session refresh on 401 errors
  • Error sanitization — internal details stay in logs, not in agent responses
  • Rate limiting — built-in sliding window rate limiter

Setup

Requirements

  • uv
  • Kwork account (login/password or API token)

Install

When using uv no specific installation is needed. We will use uvx to directly run kwork-mcp.

Alternatively, install via pip:

pip install kwork-mcp

Or from source:

git clone https://github.com/simonether/kwork-mcp.git
cd kwork-mcp
uv sync

KWORK_PASSWORD yes* Kwork password

KWORK_PHONE_LAST no Last 4 digits of phone (2FA)
KWORK_PROXY_URL no Proxy (HTTP / SOCKS4 / SOCKS5)
