hyperiux-mcp-server

hyperiux-mcp-server

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for the Hyperiux Vault effect registry. Lets AI clients (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, etc.) browse, search, and inspect React/Next.js interaction effects, and fetch installable source for effects they're entitled to.

Install

Add to your MCP client's config (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or Claude Code's .mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hyperiux": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "hyperiux-mcp-server"]
    }
  }
}

Pro effect access

Pro effect source is only returned if a Hyperiux Pro token is available. This server automatically reuses a token from either:

• A hyperiux login session already saved by the Hyperiux CLI (~/.hyperiux/auth.json), or
• the HYPERIUX_TOKEN environment variable

Without a token, Pro effect lookups still return full metadata (description, dependencies, changelog) - just no source, with a clear note explaining why.

A token isn't Pro-only, though - any signed-in Hyperiux account (free or Pro) can generate one at /cli-auth. Without a token, hyperiux_get_effect calls are tracked as anonymous (1 effect/day, device+IP based); with a free account's token they count against that account's real 3/day limit instead, shared with its website and CLI usage. Pro raises it to 10/day and unlocks Pro source.

Tools

• hyperiux_list_effects - browse/search the catalog by name substring and/or category, paginated. Does not include tier (free/pro) - the catalog index doesn't carry that field.
• hyperiux_get_effect - full detail for one effect by exact slug: description, tier, dependencies, version, changelog, install command, and optionally full source.
• hyperiux_list_categories - every category with effect counts, for narrowing a hyperiux_list_effects search.

Development

pnpm --filter hyperiux-mcp-server build   # tsc -> dist/
pnpm --filter hyperiux-mcp-server test    # vitest
pnpm --filter hyperiux-mcp-server lint    # eslint
pnpm --filter hyperiux-mcp-server dev     # tsx watch, for local iteration

Test against a running build with the MCP Inspector:

npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector --cli node dist/index.js --method tools/list
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector --cli node dist/index.js --method tools/call --tool-name hyperiux_get_effect --tool-arg name=dotted-grid

Known limitation

hyperiux_list_effects can't filter or report tier (free/pro) - the live index.json this reads from doesn't carry that field today (a pre-existing gap shared with the CLI's own hyperiux list, which silently shows every effect as "free" for the same reason). Use hyperiux_get_effect to check a specific effect's real tier before assuming it's installable without a Pro account.
