Setup

Authentication

[!IMPORTANT] This server uses Loom's internal GraphQL API via a browser session cookie. There is no official API key — you must grab the cookie from your browser.

1. Open loom.com in your browser
2. Open DevTools (F12) → Application → Cookies → https://www.loom.com
3. Copy the value of the connect.sid cookie (starts with s%3A...)
4. Paste it as LOOM_COOKIE in your MCP client config below, prefixed with connect.sid=

The cookie lasts about 30 days. See Troubleshooting if you get auth errors.

Installation

Pick your MCP client below for the appropriate config. Each uses uvx to install and run directly from GitHub — no clone needed.

Tools

Read (30 tools)

Tools marked with Save accept an optional save_dir parameter — see Saving to disk.

Write (29 tools)

[!NOTE] Write tools modify your Loom data. Destructive actions (delete, archive, move) cannot always be undone.

Saving to disk

Most per-video read tools accept an optional save_dir parameter. When provided, the tool saves its output to {save_dir}/{video_id}/ and returns the file path alongside the content. When omitted, nothing is saved.

Just ask naturally — "get the details from my last meeting and save them to the ask directory" — and the LLM will pass save_dir="ask" to the tool.

get_video_details saves each piece individually (metadata.json, transcript.txt, summary.txt, etc.) plus a combined details.md.

Troubleshooting

Auth errors

If you get auth errors, your connect.sid cookie has expired (~30 days). Grab a fresh one from your browser using the steps in Authentication.
