MCP Client Configuration

Add to your MCP client config (e.g. Claude Desktop, Cursor, Codex):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "algolia-search": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["mcparmory-algolia-search"],
      "env": {
        "APP_ID_API_KEY": "YOUR_APP_ID_API_KEY",
        "API_KEY": "YOUR_API_KEY",
        "SERVER_APPID": "YOUR_SERVER_APPID"
      }
    }
  }
}

Credentials

Set the following environment variables (via MCP client env config, shell export, or .env file):

  • APP_ID_API_KEY — API Key Authentication (x-algolia-application-id)
  • API_KEY — API Key Authentication (x-algolia-api-key)
  • SERVER_APPID — Server variable: appId (default: ALGOLIA_APPLICATION_ID) Do not commit credentials to version control.

Run Locally

First, configure your credentials in .env (see Credentials above).

pip install -r requirements.txt
python server.py

Connect MCP Client

Edit .mcp.json and replace <SERVER_DIR> with the absolute path to this directory, then add to your MCP client configuration.

Example (if server is at /home/user/mcp-servers/algolia-search):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "algolia-search": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["/home/user/mcp-servers/algolia-search/server.py"]
    }
  }
}

Docker

Pre-built image (recommended)

docker run -p 8000:8000 \
  -e APP_ID_API_KEY=YOUR_APP_ID_API_KEY \
  -e API_KEY=YOUR_API_KEY \
  -e SERVER_APPID=YOUR_SERVER_APPID \
  ghcr.io/mcparmory/algolia-search:latest

Build from source

First, configure your credentials in .env (see Credentials above).

docker build -t algolia-search .
docker run -p 8000:8000 --env-file .env algolia-search

Before running, make sure ports 8000 are free.### MCP client config (Docker)

For Docker, use SSE transport in your MCP client config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "algolia-search": {
      "type": "sse",
      "url": "http://localhost:8000/sse"
    }
  }
}
