Kick MCP server

KickMCP is a powerful Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides seamless integration with the Kick.com API. It allows you to interact with Kick's features including chat, channel information, stream control, and more through a standardized JSON-RPC 2.0 interface.

Installation

Install the package using npm:

npm install kick-mcp

Or using yarn:

yarn add kick-mcp

Configuration

Create an MCP configuration file (mcp.json) in your project root:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kickmcp": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["./dist/bin/mcp.js"]
    }
  },
  "version": "1.0.0",
  "description": "MCP configuration for KickMCP project",
  "defaultServer": "kickmcp"
}

Authentication Setup

Before using KickMCP, you need to set up authentication:

1. Visit Kick Developer Settings to obtain your Client ID and Client Secret
2. Get your Smithery key from Smithery.ai

Configure your MCP server with these credentials:

const kickmcp = require('kick-mcp');

kickmcp.configure({
  clientId: 'YOUR_CLIENT_ID',
  clientSecret: 'YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET'
});

Using KickMCP

Chat Integration

Monitor and interact with chat messages:

const kickmcp = require('kick-mcp');

kickmcp.on('chatMessage', (message) => {
  if (message.mentions.includes(yourUsername)) {
    sendNotification(`${message.sender} mentioned you!`);
  }
});

Creating Polls

Set up interactive polls for your viewers:

const poll = await kickmcp.createPoll({
  question: "What game next?",
  options: ["Minecraft", "Fortnite", "Valorant"],
  duration: 300 // 5 minutes
});

Setting Up Webhooks

Receive real-time notifications for stream events:

const webhook = await kickmcp.createWebhook({
  events: ['stream.online', 'stream.offline'],
  url: 'https://your-server.com/webhook'
});

Troubleshooting

Authentication Errors

If you experience authentication issues:

• Verify your Client ID and Secret are correct
• Check your OAuth redirect URI is properly configured
• Ensure your Smithery key is valid and active

Rate Limiting

To avoid rate limiting:

• Implement request throttling in your application
• Use caching for frequently accessed data
• Monitor your API usage through the Kick developer portal

How to install this MCP server

For Claude Code

To add this MCP server to Claude Code, run this command in your terminal:

claude mcp add-json "kickmcp" '{"command":"node","args":["./dist/bin/mcp.js"]}'

See the official Claude Code MCP documentation for more details.

For Cursor

There are two ways to add an MCP server to Cursor. The most common way is to add the server globally in the ~/.cursor/mcp.json file so that it is available in all of your projects.

If you only need the server in a single project, you can add it to the project instead by creating or adding it to the .cursor/mcp.json file.

Adding an MCP server to Cursor globally

To add a global MCP server go to Cursor Settings > Tools & Integrations and click "New MCP Server".

When you click that button the ~/.cursor/mcp.json file will be opened and you can add your server like this:

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "kickmcp": {
            "command": "node",
            "args": [
                "./dist/bin/mcp.js"
            ]
        }
    }
}

Adding an MCP server to a project

To add an MCP server to a project you can create a new .cursor/mcp.json file or add it to the existing one. This will look exactly the same as the global MCP server example above.

How to use the MCP server

Once the server is installed, you might need to head back to Settings > MCP and click the refresh button.

The Cursor agent will then be able to see the available tools the added MCP server has available and will call them when it needs to.

You can also explicitly ask the agent to use the tool by mentioning the tool name and describing what the function does.

For Claude Desktop

To add this MCP server to Claude Desktop:

1. Find your configuration file:

• macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
• Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
• Linux: ~/.config/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

2. Add this to your configuration file:

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "kickmcp": {
            "command": "node",
            "args": [
                "./dist/bin/mcp.js"
            ]
        }
    }
}

3. Restart Claude Desktop for the changes to take effect
