trakkr-mcp 0.5.1

MCP server for Trakkr — AI visibility monitoring for ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and more

trakkr-mcp

MCP server for Trakkr — AI visibility monitoring.

Connect your AI assistant (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, Codex CLI, Windsurf, Zed, Cline, Continue, and any other MCP client) to Trakkr and query your brand's AI search visibility data conversationally.

Quick Start

The fastest path is uv — uvx auto-installs and runs the server with zero setup:

# One-time, if you don't have uv:
brew install uv

# Set your API key (get one at trakkr.ai/exports/api-keys):
export TRAKKR_API_KEY="sk_live_your_key_here"

# Optional, run the server directly to verify it works:
uvx trakkr-mcp

You usually don't run uvx trakkr-mcp yourself — your MCP client runs it for you based on the config below.

Configuration

Pick the client you use. The full setup guide, including a live picker that updates the snippet per client, lives at trakkr.ai/learn/api/mcp.

Claude Code (CLI)

Run once in any terminal:

claude mcp add trakkr \
  -e TRAKKR_API_KEY=sk_live_your_key_here \
  -- uvx trakkr-mcp

Claude Desktop

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "trakkr": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["trakkr-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "TRAKKR_API_KEY": "sk_live_your_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor

~/.cursor/mcp.json (global) or .cursor/mcp.json (project):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "trakkr": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["trakkr-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "TRAKKR_API_KEY": "sk_live_your_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

VS Code (Copilot Chat)

.vscode/mcp.json — uses the input-prompt pattern so the key never lands in source:

{
  "servers": {
    "trakkr": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["trakkr-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "TRAKKR_API_KEY": "${input:trakkr-api-key}"
      }
    }
  },
  "inputs": [
    {
      "type": "promptString",
      "id": "trakkr-api-key",
      "description": "Trakkr API Key",
      "password": true
    }
  ]
}

Codex CLI

~/.codex/config.toml:

[mcp_servers.trakkr]
command = "uvx"
args = ["trakkr-mcp"]
env = { TRAKKR_API_KEY = "sk_live_your_key_here" }

Windsurf

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "trakkr": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["trakkr-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "TRAKKR_API_KEY": "sk_live_your_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Zed

~/.config/zed/settings.json:

{
  "context_servers": {
    "trakkr": {
      "source": "custom",
      "command": {
        "path": "uvx",
        "args": ["trakkr-mcp"],
        "env": {
          "TRAKKR_API_KEY": "sk_live_your_key_here"
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

Cline, Continue, or other MCP clients

Most clients accept the standard mcpServers JSON shown above for Cursor/Claude Desktop/Windsurf. Check your client's MCP documentation for the exact config file location, and see trakkr.ai/learn/api/mcp for an up-to-date picker.
