3. Click "Settings"
4. Click "Developer"

If you don't have this config, you can create an empty file at this location.

Add the following to the config file, replacing the credentials with your own:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pocket": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@kazuph/mcp-pocket"],
      "env": {
        "POCKET_CONSUMER_KEY": "your-pocket-consumer-key",
        "POCKET_ACCESS_TOKEN": "your-pocket-access-token"
      }
    }
  }
}

Prerequisites

- Node.js (install via brew install node)
- Claude Desktop (install from https://claude.ai/desktop)
- Pocket API credentials

Development Setup

1. Clone this repository and install dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/kazuph/mcp-pocket.git

cd mcp-pocket

npm install

2. For development, use this configuration instead:

{

  "mcpServers": {

    "pocket": {

      "command": "npx",

      "args": ["tsx", "/path/to/mcp-pocket/index.ts"],

      "env": {

        "POCKET_CONSUMER_KEY": "your-pocket-consumer-key",

        "POCKET_ACCESS_TOKEN": "your-pocket-access-token"

      }

    }

  }

}

Getting Pocket Api Credentials
