Features

  • 53 tools — complete coverage of the Trakt API: search, metadata, sync, ratings, watchlists, and check-ins.

  • OAuth via macOS Keychain — credentials stored securely; one-time setup with npx @kud/mcp-trakt setup.

  • Personalised calendars — see your upcoming episodes and movies, or browse what's airing across all Trakt users.

  • Full sync support — history, collection, watched state, playback progress, and last-activity timestamps.
