Installation

Prerequisites

• Python 3.10 or higher
• A Typefully account with API access
• Your Typefully API key (get it from Settings > Integrations in Typefully)

Install from source

1. Clone this repository:

git clone <repository-url>
cd typefully-mcp-server

1. Create and activate a virtual environment:

python3 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate

1. Install the package:

pip install -e .

Configuration

API Key Management

This server supports secure API key storage using macOS Keychain. You have two options:

Option 1: macOS Keychain (Recommended) 🔐

Store your API key securely in the macOS System keychain:

• Service: typefully-mcp-server
• Account: api_key
• Password: Your Typefully API key

For detailed keychain setup instructions, see CURSOR_SETUP.md.

Option 2: Environment Variables

You can set the API key as an environment variable or include it directly in your MCP configuration.

Note: Environment variables take priority over keychain storage for compatibility.

MCP Configuration

For detailed MCP client setup instructions (Cursor, Claude Desktop, etc.), see CURSOR_SETUP.md.

Basic MCP configuration example:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "typefully": {
      "command": "/path/to/your/typefully-mcp-server/venv/bin/python",
      "args": ["-m", "typefully_mcp_server.server"],
      "cwd": "/path/to/your/typefully-mcp-server"
    }
  }
}

A test script is included to verify the server functionality:

# Make sure your virtual environment is activated
source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate

# Test the API connectivity (requires API key configured)
python test_read_api.py
