whamlink-mcp

An MCP server for whamlink — let any MCP client (Claude Desktop, IDEs, agents) publish a single file to a permanent, shareable link.

Setup

1. Get an API key: register at https://whamlink.com/app, then create a key under Keys.

2. Add the server to your MCP client config, passing the key via WHAMLINK_API_KEY.

Claude Desktop (claude_desktop_config.json)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "whamlink": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "whamlink-mcp"],
      "env": { "WHAMLINK_API_KEY": "wl_your_key_here" }
    }
  }
}

Running from source instead of npm: "command": "node", "args": ["/path/to/whamlink/mcp/dist/index.js"] (after npm install && npm run build in mcp/).

Environment

• WHAMLINK_API_KEY (optional) — your whamlink API key. If unset, the server still starts; the agent can register to create an account in-session (save the returned key here to persist).

• WHAMLINK_BASE_URL (optional) — defaults to https://whamlink.com.

Tools

PDF and image files aren't supported over MCP (tool args are JSON, which can't carry binary) — use the whamlink dashboard or the multipart API for those.

Never publish secrets, API keys, or private data. Public links are unlisted but anyone with the URL can view them; use private/password/email visibility for anything sensitive.
