Overview

What is Sonarr MCP Server?

Sonarr MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables AI assistants to manage TV series in Sonarr through natural language commands. It integrates with Sonarr’s API v4 and is intended for users of AI assistants that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop or Continue.dev.

How to use Sonarr MCP Server?

Install Node.js 18+, npm 8+, and a running Sonarr 4.x instance with an API key. Clone the repository, run npm install, copy .env.example to .env and fill in your Sonarr URL and API key, then build with npm run build. Start the server with npm start or use Docker. Integrate with an AI assistant by adding the server’s stdio command to the client’s MCP configuration (e.g., claude_desktop_config.json). Test the connection by running npm run start -- --test.
