What the publisher says

From the GDELT News MCP by UnClick repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

UnClick MCP server

The app store for AI agents. unclick.world

450+ callable endpoints across 178+ tools, available to any MCP-compatible AI client. New tools ship to the API continuously. Your agent picks them up automatically; no package update is needed. <!-- Update counts from src/config/site-stats.ts -->

Install

Using the latest GitHub release (no npm account required):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "unclick": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "https://github.com/malamutemayhem/unclick/releases/latest/download/unclick.tgz"]
    }
  }
}

Add this to your claudedesktopconfig.json (or equivalent for Cursor, Windsurf, etc).

Or install globally from GitHub:

npm install -g https://github.com/malamutemayhem/unclick/releases/latest/download/unclick.tgz

Operational Notes

This repo follows the AGENTS.md fence rules for agent work.

Run

For local web development:

npm run dev

For the API workspace:

npm run dev:api

Test

Run the main test suite:

npm test

Run the production build check:

npm run build

License

UnClick uses a split license. The platform (website, API, and hosted backend and memory services) is AGPL-3.0 (see LICENSE). The npm client package @unclick/mcp-server stays MIT, and the standalone connector packages stay Apache-2.0. Full breakdown and reasoning in LICENSING.md.

What it does

Gives your agent access to a growing catalog of tools across developer utilities, social media, e-commerce, finance, messaging, media, security, and more. You don't need to install separate packages for each integration. One server provides access to everything in the catalog.

Tool Surface

UnClick exposes a small direct surface for daily agent workflows, plus hidden internal discovery tools for the full catalog.

The agent starts with memory, uses direct Boardroom tools for coordination, and can still call the hidden catalog tools by name when it needs dynamic endpoint discovery.

Compatibility and advanced memory operations

  • Legacy memory names still work as aliases: getstartupcontext -> loadmemory, writesessionsummary -> savesession, addfact -> savefact, setbusinesscontext -> save_identity.
  • The remaining memory operations are intentionally not listed in ListTools and are called through unclickcall with endpointid: "memory." (for example memory.managedecay, memory.storecode, memory.logconversation, memory.supersedefact, memory.upsertlibrarydoc).

Requirements

  • Node.js 18+
  • An API key from unclick.world

Set your key as an environment variable:

UNCLICK_API_KEY=your_key_here

Or pass it via the MCP config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "unclick": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "https://github.com/malamutemayhem/unclick/releases/latest/download/unclick.tgz"],
      "env": {
        "UNCLICK_API_KEY": "your_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}
