Tinylytics MCP
Connect Grok, Claude, Cursor, Codex, or any MCP client to your Tinylytics account with the same API keys you already use.
Endpoint
https://tinylytics.app/mcp
This is a hosted Streamable HTTP server on the main Tinylytics host. There is no separate mcp. subdomain.
1. Quick Start
The easiest path is browser connect: add the server URL, then sign in and create a key marked MCP. The agent receives that key automatically. You can still paste a key yourself.
The server uses the same rate limit as the HTTP API: 1000 requests per hour per key. Clients must send Accept: application/json, text/event-stream. Most MCP clients do this automatically.
2. Set up in your agent
Grok
grok mcp add --transport http tinylytics https://tinylytics.app/mcp
Or add this to ~/.grok/config.toml:
[mcp_servers.tinylytics]
url = "https://tinylytics.app/mcp"
Reload with /mcps and press r. Grok will open a browser so you can sign in and create an MCP key. That key appears on Account Settings → API Access with an MCP badge.
To skip the browser and use an existing key:
export TINYLYTICS_API_KEY="tly-ro-your-api-key"
grok mcp add --transport http tinylytics https://tinylytics.app/mcp \
--header "Authorization: Bearer ${TINYLYTICS_API_KEY}"
Cursor
Add the server URL. Cursor will open a browser to sign in and create an MCP key.
{
"mcpServers": {
"tinylytics": {
"url": "https://tinylytics.app/mcp"
}
}
}
Put that in .cursor/mcp.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json. To skip the browser, add an Authorization header with an existing key.
Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http tinylytics https://tinylytics.app/mcp
Claude opens a browser so you can sign in and create an MCP key. Add --header "Authorization: Bearer ${TINYLYTICS_API_KEY}" only if you want to skip that.
Claude Desktop
If your Claude Desktop build accepts a remote HTTP server, use the same JSON as Cursor in:
- macOS:
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json - Windows:
%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
If it only launches local stdio servers, bridge to the hosted endpoint:
{
"mcpServers": {
"tinylytics": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"mcp-remote",
"https://tinylytics.app/mcp",
"--header",
"Authorization: Bearer ${TINYLYTICS_API_KEY}"
]
}
}
}
Restart Claude Desktop. Look for the MCP tools icon to confirm the connection.
Codex
[mcp_servers.tinylytics]
url = "https://tinylytics.app/mcp"
Add that to ~/.codex/config.toml. Codex should prompt you to sign in and create an MCP key. Use a header only if you already have a key.
Any other MCP client
Point the client at https://tinylytics.app/mcp with no header. If it supports MCP OAuth, it will open /oauth/authorize. If it only supports static headers, create a key under API Access and send Authorization: Bearer tly-ro-….
3. Team accounts
API keys stay personal. Tools that act on sites or groups accept optional account_id.
- Call
list_accounts(orget_me) to see personal and team accounts. - Pass a team
idasaccount_idon later tools. - Omit
account_idto stay on the personal account.
Team viewers can read the owner’s sites and groups. Team admins can create, update, and delete the owner’s sites. Team owners can also create, update, and delete the owner’s groups.
This MCP server is for your own Tinylytics sites. It does not include sites provisioned through Analytics for SaaS, the separate product for embedding Tinylytics in your own app. Those tenant sites have their own API.
4. Tools
Each tool maps to one API v1 endpoint.
| Tool | API |
|---|---|
get_me |
GET /api/v1/me |
list_accounts |
GET /api/v1/accounts |
list_sites / get_site / create_site / update_site / delete_site |
sites |
update_site_features |
PATCH /api/v1/sites/:id/features |
list_hits / create_hit |
hits |
create_event |
events |
create_kudo / delete_kudo |
kudos |
list_insights |
insights |
get_uptime |
uptime |
list_groups / get_group / create_group / update_group / delete_group |
groups |
Use site_id and group_id in tools instead of putting ids in the URL path.
Full request fields and response shapes match the HTTP API.
