loomiomcp

Model Context Protocol server for Loomio. Lets Claude (Desktop, Code, or web Projects via Custom Connector) read and write Loomio discussions, polls, comments, and group memberships in plain English. Targets Loomio's b2 API — the canonical surface documented at /help/api2 and the namespace where the controllers actually live in the open-source repo.

Tools (b2, per-user ?api_key=):

• get_discussion(id_or_key) — fetch one discussion

• list_discussions(group_id, status?, limit?, offset?) — list a group's discussions

• create_discussion(title, group_id, …) — start a new one

• get_poll(id_or_key) — fetch one poll

• list_polls(group_id, status?, limit?, offset?) — list a group's polls

• create_poll(title, poll_type, …) — start a new poll

• list_memberships(group_id, limit?, offset?) — list a group's members with email addresses (caller must be a group admin)

• list_groups({start_id?, end_id?, stop_after_consecutive_misses?}) — enumerate visible groups by probing b2/polls across an id range. Loomio has no api-key-authed list-groups endpoint; this is the workaround. Default scans are ~50–200 outbound calls; a single invocation is capped at 500 ids

• manage_memberships({group_id, emails, remove_absent}) — add and (with remove_absent: true) remove members. See SECURITY.md before using remove_absent.

• create_comment(discussion_id, body, body_format?) — reply on a discussion

Opt-in admin tools (b3, server-instance secret ?b3_api_key=):

Set LOOMIO_B3_API_KEY to enable. Only useful for Loomio instance operators.

• deactivate_user(id) — disable a user account instance-wide

• reactivate_user(id) — re-enable a previously deactivated user

Quick start (stdio, local)

LOOMIO_API_KEY=… npx loomiomcp

Add it to your Claude Desktop / Claude Code config the same way you would any stdio MCP server.

Remote (HTTP)

See DEPLOY.md for Cloud Run.

Auth

Loomio's b2 API authenticates by API key passed as a ?api_key=… query parameter. The connector injects it server-side; it never reaches the MCP client. Generate one in Loomio under your profile → API keys.

The optional b3 admin namespace uses a different secret (?b3_api_key=…, validated against ENV['B3_API_KEY'] on the Loomio server, >16 chars). Only relevant if you operate a Loomio instance.

Read-only mode

Set LOOMIO_MCP_READONLY=1 to register only the read tools (get_* / list_*). All write tools (create_*, manage_*) are skipped at server-init time. This is the mode the Cloud Run deployment runs in.
