Supercharge your AI agents with Polar as a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server.

What is MCP?

MCP is a protocol for integrating tools with AI agents. It can greatly enhance the capabilities of your AI agents by providing them with real-time data and context. Polar offers a remote MCP server that you can connect to from most AI clients.

How does it work?

You need a MCP-capable agent environment to use Polar over MCP. A few of them are Claude Desktop and Cursor.

Connecting to Polar MCP

When you can specify a MCP URL, use https://mcp.polar.sh/mcp/polar-mcp. If you have to specify a command, use:
{  "mcpServers": {  "Polar": {  "command": "npx",  "args": ["mcp-remote", "https://mcp.polar.sh/mcp/polar-mcp"]  }  } } 

Cursor

In .cursor/mcp.json, add:
{  "mcpServers": {  "Polar": {  "url": "https://mcp.polar.sh/mcp/polar-mcp"  }  } } 

Windsurf

In mcp_config.json, add:
{  "mcpServers": {  "Polar": {  "command": "npx",  "args": ["mcp-remote", "https://mcp.polar.sh/mcp/polar-mcp"]  }  } } 

Codex

Add the following to your ~/.codex/config.toml:
[mcp_servers.polar] command = "npx" args = ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://mcp.polar.sh/mcp/polar-mcp"] 

Claude Code

Run the following command:
claude mcp add --transport http "Polar" "https://mcp.polar.sh/mcp/polar-mcp" 

ChatGPT

MCP is only available for paid users in beta on ChatGPT web, by enabling Developer Mode. Once Developer Mode is enabled, go to SettingsConnectors and add the MCP server using https://mcp.polar.sh/mcp/polar-mcp.

Claude Desktop

Go to SettingsConnectors and click Add custom connector. Name it “Polar” and add https://mcp.polar.sh/mcp/polar-mcp as the server URL. Save, and click Connect to connect to your Polar organization.
