TMDB MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides access to The Movie Database (TMDB) API. This server enables AI assistants to search and retrieve movie information through the MCP interface.

Features

  • Search movies by title, year, and other criteria
  • Retrieve detailed movie information
  • Easy integration with MCP-compatible AI assistants

Prerequisites

  • Node.js >= 18
  • TMDB API key (get one from TMDB)

Installation

  1. Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/rakeshgangwar/tmdb-mcp-server.git cd tmdb-mcp-server
  1. Install dependencies:
npm install
  1. Build the server:
npm run build

Configuration

Configure the MCP server in your MCP settings file (typically cline_mcp_settings.json):

{ "mcpServers": { "tmdb": { "command": "node", "args": ["/path/to/tmdb-mcp-server/dist/index.js"], "env": { "TMDB_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here" }, "disabled": false, "autoApprove": [] } } }

Replace your-api-key-here with your TMDB API key and replace /path/to/ with actual path.
