Overview

What is MonkeyType MCP Server?

MonkeyType MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that wraps the entire MonkeyType API, exposing all its endpoints as MCP tools. It allows any LLM that supports MCP to interact with MonkeyType—fetching user stats, leaderboards, test results, and more—using API key authentication.

How to use MonkeyType MCP Server?

Install via npx monkeytype-mcp (recommended), npm install -g monkeytype-mcp, or clone the repository. Set the required MONKEYTYPE_API_KEY environment variable (and optionally MONKEYTYPE_USERNAME) in your MCP server configuration. Then configure your LLM platform or IDE (e.g., Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, Claude, VS Code) to use the server over stdio. The server exposes around 20 tools covering user, test results, public, leaderboards, PSAs, quotes, and configuration endpoints.

Key features of MonkeyType MCP Server

  • Exposes all MonkeyType API endpoints as MCP tools
  • Compatible with any LLM supporting the Model Context Protocol
  • Simple API key-based authentication per tool call
  • Comprehensive error handling
  • Rate limit awareness (respects MonkeyType's rate limits)

Use cases of MonkeyType MCP Server

  • An LLM assistant checking a user’s typing stats and personal bests
  • Fetching leaderboard data or rank from within a chat interface
  • Retrieving test results and profiles for analysis or display
  • Automating actions like checking username availability or sending forgot-password emails

Frequently asked questions

1

What is an ApeKey and how do I get it?

An ApeKey is your MonkeyType API key. To generate one, sign into monkeytype.com, go to Account → Ape Keys, generate a new key with the required scopes, and copy it. Never share it publicly.

2

What runtime or dependencies are required?

You need Node.js and npm (to install via npx or npm). The server runs as a stdio process and requires a network connection to the MonkeyType API. No other system dependencies are needed.

3

Where does my data live?

All data (stats, results, etc.) is stored on MonkeyType’s servers. The MCP server only makes API calls—it does not persist any data locally.

4

Are there any limits I should be aware of?

Yes. The server respects MonkeyType’s rate limits. Also, the `get_results` tool can return up to 1000 test results. Other limits may apply per MonkeyType’s API terms.

5

How do I authenticate with the server?

Set the `MONKEYTYPE_API_KEY` environment variable in your MCP server configuration. Some tools accept an optional `MONKEYTYPE_USERNAME` variable for default profile lookups. Authentication is handled per tool call.
