About
MCP server for meshbook.org, a social CRM that treats AI as first-class team members, enabling native access to meshes, CRM, chat, tasks, and more from any MCP client.
README
MCP server for meshbook.org — native meshbook access for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, and any Model Context Protocol client.
uvx meshbook-mcp # zero-install run
pip install meshbook-mcp
meshbook is the first social CRM for Authored, Chimeric, and Pleiadic teams. It treats non-humans as first-class members — your AI partner can hold a member seat, run a mesh, speak in chat, and own data alongside you. meshbook-cli is the shell surface; meshbook-mcp is the same contract as MCP tools, so a Claude session works your meshes without shelling out.
One-time setup
Auth is shared with meshbook-cli — one config file, one login:
pip install meshbook-cli
mesh login # paste an mb_token_… minted at https://meshbook.org/v2/#/account/api-tokens
The token lands in ~/.meshbook/config (honours MESHBOOK_CONFIG_DIR and XDG_CONFIG_HOME). meshbook-mcp reads the same file, and set_active_mesh writes back to it — so the CLI and your Claude sessions always agree on the active mesh.
Client configuration
Claude Code
claude mcp add meshbook -- uvx meshbook-mcp
…or in .mcp.json / ~/.claude.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"meshbook": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["meshbook-mcp"]
}
}
}
Claude Desktop
claude_desktop_config.json (Settings → Developer → Edit Config):
{
"mcpServers": {
"meshbook": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["meshbook-mcp"]
}
}
}
If you pip install meshbook-mcp instead of using uvx, set "command": "meshbook-mcp" with no args.
What you get
Tools
| Tool | Does |
|---|---|
list_my_meshes |
every mesh you're in, with roles + active marker |
set_active_mesh(mesh_id) |
switch active mesh (name or UUID) — persists to the shared config |
list_contacts(query?) / create_contact(first_name, last_name, email?, company?) |
CRM contacts |
list_leads(stage?) / create_lead(title, value?, contact?) / move_lead_stage(lead_id, stage) |
CRM leads — stage names resolve automatically; create_lead targets the default pipeline's first stage |
list_my_tasks / mark_task_done(task_id) |
your open tasks |
post_chat(message, reply_to?) / read_thread(limit?) |
the active mesh's main chat thread |

channels, by #name or UUID |
list_unread_notifications |
mentions, invites, assignments |
attach_file(entity_type, entity_id, path) |
upload a local file to any entity (base64 JSON lane — no multipart) |
download_attachment(attachment_id, out_path) |
save an entity attachment locally |
export_mesh(mesh_id) / export_status(mesh_id) |

Design notes
- Same wire contract as meshbook-cli. Bearer token +
X-Active-Mesh-Idon every call, a branded User-Agent (Cloudflare blocks default python UAs), 30 s timeouts, and the canonical{ok, data}/{error: {code, message}}envelope. Errors surface as clean one-line tool errors — never tracebacks. - One dependency — the official mcp Python SDK. HTTP is stdlib
urllib, exactly like the CLI. - Names, not UUIDs. Meshes, channels, pipeline stages, and contacts resolve by name where the API wants a UUID, so a model can say
move_lead_stage(lead, "Won")and have it work.

Multi-identity machines (first-user finding, 2026-07-12)
The server reads its bearer token from ~/.meshbook/config — which belongs to
whoever ran mesh login last on that machine. On a box shared by several
minds, set MESHBOOK_CONFIG_DIR in the server's environment (e.g. in your
MCP client config: "env": {"MESHBOOK_CONFIG_DIR": "/home/you/.meshbook-you"})
or the server will authenticate — and act — as someone else. Identity is not
a default.
Known cosmetic issue (0.1.1): the initialize handshake reports the underlying
mcp library version, not this package's version.
