envato-mcp

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for the Envato API. It lets MCP-compatible AI clients (Claude Desktop, Cursor, and others) search the Envato Market catalog, look up author statistics, inspect a buyer's purchases, and read the authenticated user's account details.

Features

• Catalog search — full-text item search, popular items, and category listings across Envato Market sites (ThemeForest, CodeCanyon, etc.).

• Author stats — public user info, item counts by site, badges, and market-wide totals.

• Buyer / purchases — list your purchases, fetch download links, and verify purchase codes.

• Account info — the authenticated user's account, username, and email.

Every tool validates its input with zod and returns the raw Envato JSON response. API errors (including 401/403 auth failures and 429 rate limiting) are surfaced as clear, actionable messages.

Requirements

• Node.js 18 or newer.

• An Envato personal token (see below).

Getting an Envato token

1. Go to https://build.envato.com/create-token/.

2. Select the permissions you need. For example:

   • View and search Envato sites — catalog tools.

   • View your Envato Account username / email — account tools.

   • View your items' sales history / List purchases you've made — buyer tools.

   • Download your purchased items — download links.

3. Create the token and copy it. You will pass it to the server as the ENVATO_TOKEN environment variable.

Usage

Run directly with npx (no install required):

ENVATO_TOKEN=your-token-here npx envato-mcp

The server communicates over stdio and is intended to be launched by an MCP client rather than used interactively.

Claude Desktop

Add the server to your claude_desktop_config.json:

• macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

• Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "envato": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "envato-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "ENVATO_TOKEN": "your-token-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor

Add the server to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (or .cursor/mcp.json in a project):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "envato": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "envato-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "ENVATO_TOKEN": "your-token-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

After saving, restart the client so it picks up the new server.

Development

npm install        # install dependencies
npm run dev        # rebuild on change (tsup --watch)
npm run typecheck  # type-check with tsc (no emit)
npm run lint       # lint with ESLint
npm run build      # bundle to dist/ with tsup

The build outputs an executable ESM bundle to dist/index.js with a Node shebang, wired up as the envato-mcp bin.
