## About

Connects an assistant to daily.dev, the developer news network. It gives access to your personalized feeds, posts, bookmarks, tags and search, so you can pull up current developer content or organize saved items in conversation.

It runs as a hosted streamable HTTP endpoint at api.daily.dev/mcp. Clients that support OAuth can sign in with a daily.dev account (read and write scopes). Otherwise, send an Authorization header with a personal access token generated in daily.dev API settings. Plus raises request limits and unlocks Plus-only endpoints.

## What it can do

- Fetch your personalized daily.dev feed
- Read posts from developer news sources
- Search daily.dev content
- Browse and filter content by tag
- Work with your saved bookmarks

## Example prompts

- "Show me the top posts in my daily.dev feed today."
- "Search daily.dev for recent articles about Rust async."
- "List my bookmarks and group them by topic."
- "Find popular posts tagged with kubernetes this week."

## Install

### Claude Code

1. Run this in a terminal, in your project folder:

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http daily-dev https://api.daily.dev/mcp
```

2. Start Claude Code, type `/mcp`, pick **daily-dev** and choose **Authenticate**. A browser window opens for the daily.dev sign-in.

Add `--scope user` to make it available in every project, not just this one.

### Claude Desktop

1. Open **Settings → Connectors** and click **Add custom connector**.

2. Name it **daily.dev** and paste this URL:

```url
https://api.daily.dev/mcp
```

3. Click **Add**, then **Connect**, and sign in when daily.dev asks.

Claude Desktop’s JSON config file only starts local servers. Remote servers go through Connectors, and connectors you add on claude.ai show up here too.

### claude.ai

1. Open the connector form on claude.ai. This button fills in the name and URL for you:

[Add to claude.ai](<https://claude.ai/customize/connectors?modal=add-custom-connector&connectorName=daily.dev&connectorUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.daily.dev%2Fmcp>) (opens connector settings)

2. Check that the URL reads `https://api.daily.dev/mcp` and click **Add**.

3. Click **Connect** and sign in when daily.dev asks.

Free plans allow one custom connector. On Team and Enterprise plans an owner adds it under **Organization settings → Connectors**.

### ChatGPT

1. On chatgpt.com, open **Settings → Security and login** and turn on **Developer mode**.

2. Go to `chatgpt.com/plugins` and click **+** to create an app for a remote MCP server.

3. Paste `https://api.daily.dev/mcp` as the server URL and choose **OAuth**. ChatGPT sends you to daily.dev to sign in.

Developer mode is available on the web for Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise and Education accounts.

### Cursor

[Add to Cursor](<https://cursor.com/install-mcp?name=daily-dev&config=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL2FwaS5kYWlseS5kZXYvbWNwIn0%3D>) (opens Cursor)

Or add it by hand to `~/.cursor/mcp.json` (all projects) or `.cursor/mcp.json` (this project):

`mcp.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "daily-dev": {
      "url": "https://api.daily.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

Cursor shows **Needs login** next to the server. Click it to sign in.

### VS Code

[Install in VS Code](<https://vscode.dev/redirect/mcp/install?name=daily-dev&config=%7B%22type%22%3A%22http%22%2C%22url%22%3A%22https%3A%2F%2Fapi.daily.dev%2Fmcp%22%7D>) (opens VS Code)

Or from a terminal:

```bash
code --add-mcp '{"name":"daily-dev","type":"http","url":"https://api.daily.dev/mcp"}'
```

Or commit it to the repo in `.vscode/mcp.json`:

`.vscode/mcp.json`:

```json
{
  "servers": {
    "daily-dev": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.daily.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

VS Code asks you to sign in the first time the server starts.

### Devin Desktop

1. Add it to `~/.config/devin/mcp_config.json` (macOS and Linux) or `%APPDATA%\devin\mcp_config.json` (Windows):

`mcp_config.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "daily-dev": {
      "serverUrl": "https://api.daily.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

2. Refresh the MCP server list in Cascade and sign in when asked.

Devin Desktop is the new name for Windsurf. It reads `serverUrl` (or `url`) for remote servers.

### Codex

```bash
codex mcp add daily-dev --url https://api.daily.dev/mcp
codex mcp login daily-dev
```

Or edit `~/.codex/config.toml` directly:

`config.toml`:

```toml
[mcp_servers.daily-dev]
url = "https://api.daily.dev/mcp"
```

### Gemini CLI

```bash
gemini mcp add --transport http daily-dev https://api.daily.dev/mcp
```

Then, inside Gemini CLI, run `/mcp auth daily-dev` to sign in.

This adds it to the current project. Add `-s user` to use it everywhere.

### Any client

Most clients accept this shape. Some name the URL field differently: `serverUrl` in Devin Desktop, `httpUrl` in Gemini CLI’s settings file.

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "daily-dev": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.daily.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

Zed puts servers under `context_servers` in its settings. Cline needs `"type": "streamableHttp"`, or it assumes SSE.

Client only starts local servers? Bridge it with `npx -y mcp-remote https://api.daily.dev/mcp`.
