Model Context Protocol server for Loomio. Lets Claude (Desktop, Code, or web Projects via Custom Connector) read and write Loomio discussions, polls, comments, and group memberships — and analyse member activity — in plain English. Targets Loomio's b2 API — the canonical surface documented at /help/api2 and the namespace where the controllers actually live in the open-source repo.

Tools (b2, per-user ?api_key=):

• get_discussion(id_or_key) — fetch one discussion
• list_discussions(group_id, status?, limit?, offset?) — list a group's discussions
• create_discussion(title, group_id, …) — start a new one
• get_poll(id_or_key) — fetch one poll
• list_polls(group_id, status?, limit?, offset?) — list a group's polls
• create_poll(title, poll_type, …) — start a new poll
• list_memberships(group_id, limit?, offset?) — list a group's members with email addresses. Requires the connector's user to be a group admin (coordinator); Loomio only returns the member list to admins. On a 403 the connector probes to explain why — bot lacks the admin role vs. invalid key vs. not-a-member — and points at get_user_activity / list_events for names/ids (email stays admin-only).
• list_groups({start_id?, end_id?, stop_after_consecutive_misses?}) — enumerate visible groups by probing b2/polls across an id range. Loomio has no api-key-authed list-groups endpoint; this is the workaround. Default scans are ~50–200 outbound calls; a single invocation is capped at 500 ids
• list_events(discussion_id, limit?, offset?, kinds?) — the event stream for one discussion (comments, reactions, stances, outcomes, …) with actor_id, kind, timestamps, and embedded users / comments / polls. With no limit/offset it paginates up to a bounded cap and reports scope.complete; with either pagination knob it returns that one page.
• get_user_activity(user_id, group_ids, since?, until?) — aggregate one user's participation across groups (counts by kind / group / month, first/last activity). The primary tool for any user-centric question; fans out server-side with a bounded budget and reports completeness via scope.complete. If both since and until are supplied, until must be later than since.
• manage_memberships({group_id, emails, remove_absent}) — add and (with remove_absent: true) remove members. See SECURITY.md before using remove_absent.
• create_comment(discussion_id, body, body_format?) — reply on a discussion

Opt-in admin tools (b3, server-instance secret ?b3_api_key=):

Set LOOMIO_B3_API_KEY to enable. Only useful for Loomio instance operators.

• deactivate_user(id) — disable a user account instance-wide
• reactivate_user(id) — re-enable a previously deactivated user

Quick start (stdio, local)

LOOMIO_API_KEY=… npx loomiomcp

Add it to your Claude Desktop / Claude Code config the same way you would any stdio MCP server.

Remote (HTTP)

See DEPLOY.md for Cloud Run.

Auth

Loomio's b2 API authenticates by API key passed as a ?api_key=… query parameter. The connector injects it server-side; it never reaches the MCP client. Generate one in Loomio under your profile → API keys.

The optional b3 admin namespace uses a different secret (?b3_api_key=…, validated against ENV['B3_API_KEY'] on the Loomio server, >16 chars). Only relevant if you operate a Loomio instance.

Read-only mode

Set LOOMIO_MCP_READONLY=1 to register only the 8 read tools (get_* / list_* / get_user_activity). All write tools (create_*, manage_*) are skipped at server-init time. This is the mode the Cloud Run deployment runs in.
