- Bulk edit bookmarks in a collection
- Audit broken links and duplicates, and manage trash
Tools

Install
Quick Start (One-Liners)
| Tool | One-Liner Command |
|---|---|
| Gemini CLI | gemini extensions install https://github.com/adeze/raindrop-mcp |
| Codex CLI | codex mcp add raindrop -- npx -y @adeze/raindrop-mcp |
| Claude Code | claude mcp add raindrop -- npx -y @adeze/raindrop-mcp |
| GitHub Copilot | gh copilot config mcp add raindrop -- npx -y @adeze/raindrop-mcp |
| Vercel Skills | npx skills add adeze/raindrop-mcp |
Note: For tools adding an MCP server via
npx, you must have theRAINDROP_ACCESS_TOKENenvironment variable set in your shell or the tool’s environment config.
Vercel Skills (npx skills)
This project is compatible with the Vercel Skills system. All necessary manifests are present:
manifest.json: Standard MCP manifest for server definition.SKILL.md: Standardized skill description for agent discovery.mcp.json: Root configuration for MCP clients and registries.
To add this server to your local skill directory:
npx skills add adeze/raindrop-mcp --global
To contribute this to the Vercel Skills Registry, submit a Pull Request adding this repository URL to the registry.
Claude Desktop (MCPB)
Download the latest raindrop-mcp.mcpb from the GitHub Release and add it to Claude Desktop:
In Claude Desktop, add the bundle and set this environment variable:
- RAINDROP_ACCESS_TOKEN (from your Raindrop.io integrations settings)
NPX (CLI)
Set your API token as an environment variable and run:
export RAINDROP_ACCESS_TOKEN=YOUR_RAINDROP_ACCESS_TOKEN
npx @adeze/raindrop-mcp
Manual MCP config (mcp.json)
Add this to your MCP client configuration:
{
"servers": {
"raindrop": {
"type": "stdio",
"command": "npx",
"args": ["@adeze/raindrop-mcp@latest"],
"env": {
"RAINDROP_ACCESS_TOKEN": "YOUR_RAINDROP_ACCESS_TOKEN"
}
}
}
}
Requirements
- A Raindrop.io account
- A Raindrop.io API Access Token: https://app.raindrop.io/settings/integrations
Support
Release
This repository uses semantic-release as the only supported release flow.
How publishing works
- Releases run from pushes to
mastervia.github/workflows/ci.yml. semantic-releaseanalyzes Conventional Commit messages, computes the next version, updatesCHANGELOG.md, tags/releases on GitHub, and publishes npm.- During release preparation,
.releaserc.jsonsyncsmanifest.json,mcp.json, andgemini-extension.json, then buildsraindrop-mcp.mcpbso the GitHub Release includes the bundle.
Pre-release dry-run
- Run
.github/workflows/release-dry-run.ymlwith Run workflow before cutting a public release. - This validates semantic version calculation, registry auth, and release pipeline behavior without publishing.
Required secrets
GITHUB_TOKENis provided by GitHub Actions for release automation.
npm trusted publishing
- npm publishing is configured via GitHub Actions OIDC trusted publishing.
NPM_TOKENis not required for the standard CI release path.
Local validation before merge
bun run lint
bun run type-check
bun run test
bun run build

Do not manually bump versions, push release tags, or run manual npm publish commands for normal releases.
📋 Recent Enhancements (v2.4.x)
Smart Organization & Hierarchy
- AI Suggestions: New
get_suggestionstool provides organizational advice using Raindrop’s API and MCP Sampling. - Collection Tree:
get_collection_treetool provides a hierarchical view with full breadcrumb paths. - Bulk Move: Added
moveoperation tobulk_edit_raindropsfor efficient library organization. - Pagination Support: Standardized
list_raindropsandbookmark_searchwith pagination for large libraries.
Safety & Quality
- Confirmation Logic: Destructive tools (
empty_trash,cleanup_collections) now require explicit confirmation. - Standardized Naming: All tools now use consistent snake_case naming conventions.
- CI/CD Pipeline: Enhanced GitHub Actions with automated linting, type-checking, and cross-transport tests.
- Code Quality: Established ESLint and Prettier configurations for maintainable development.

- Seamless integration with dynamic resource system (
mcp://raindrop/{id})
SDK & API Updates
- Updated to the latest supported MCP SDK in this repository
- Modern tool registration with improved descriptions
- Fixed API endpoints and path parameters
- All core tools fully functional
Tool Optimization
- Resource-efficient responses for bookmark/collection lists
