## Description
Comment moderation and intelligence for any article: bot/spam detection, multilingual sentiment analysis, and Influence (constructive comment generation on paid tiers). Free tier: 1,000 comments, no credit card.

## Claude Desktop Quick Installation
Install path detected from listing signals. Uses `uvx` (confidence: high):

```json
"mcpServers": {
  "sentisift-sdks": {
    "command": "uvx",
    "args": ["sentisift-mcp"],
    "env": {
      "SENTISIFT_API_KEY": ""
    }
  }
}
```

**Requires environment variables:** `SENTISIFT_API_KEY` — the values above are empty placeholders; fill in real credentials before running (see the repository for what each one is for).

## What pickelfintech/sentisift-sdks MCP server does

The pickelfintech/sentisift-sdks MCP server provides an MCP-facing way to use the SentiSift API for article comment analysis. It is distributed as the `sentisift-mcp` Python package and is intended for MCP hosts such as Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, and Continue.

SentiSift evaluates comments across five separate dimensions: sentiment, eloquence, length, behavioral patterns, and commercial signals. The API uses those signals to identify bots, spam, and other noise, while preserving information about genuine participation. Results include moderation decisions and analytics about the comment group rather than only a single per-comment label.

## How it works

An MCP client starts the server locally and provides the SentiSift API key through the environment. The server forwards analysis requests to the hosted SentiSift service. A request includes an article URL and a list of comments; each comment can contain fields such as its text, author, and timestamp.

The pickelfintech/sentisift-sdks MCP server is an API client layer, not the SentiSift scoring or billing service itself. Authentication, scoring, and the underlying processing pipeline are handled by the separate hosted API. The public repository contains the client packages, integration code, generated API models, and tests.

## Setup and configuration

Install and run the MCP package with `uvx`:

```bash
uvx sentisift-mcp
```

The package can also be installed with pip:

```bash
pip install sentisift-mcp
```

Set `SENTISIFT_API_KEY` in the environment used by the MCP host. An API key is required to call the SentiSift service and can be obtained from SentiSift's pricing page. After installation, add the server to the host's MCP configuration. The repository specifically references Claude Desktop's `claude_desktop_config.json`, Cursor's `~/.cursor/mcp.json`, and VS Code settings, with host-specific configuration examples documented in the MCP package directory.

## Tools and capabilities

The pickelfintech/sentisift-sdks MCP server supports the SentiSift comment-analysis workflow, including:

- Submitting an article URL and comment collection for analysis.
- Detecting bots, spam, and other unwanted comment activity.
- Producing multilingual sentiment analysis.
- Scoring comments for sentiment, eloquence, length, behavioral patterns, and commercial signals.
- Returning moderation decisions and aggregate or crowd-level analytics.
- Supporting Influence, which generates constructive perspectives when a discussion is one-sided on eligible paid tiers.

The provided material does not list the individual MCP tool names or their complete input and output schemas. Consult the package documentation and SentiSift API reference for those details.

## Limitations and notes

The integration code is open source and MIT licensed, but the SentiSift API is a separate hosted service governed by its own terms. Using the API requires an API key. The documented free allowance is 1,000 comments with no credit card; higher-tier features and Influence availability depend on the SentiSift plan.

The server analyzes comments supplied to it along with an article URL. The repository description does not establish that it retrieves comments from arbitrary websites, performs scraping itself, or modifies a publication's comment system. The full API service, including authentication, billing, scoring, and scrapers, is maintained outside this public SDK repository.

The three SentiSift packages use semantic versioning, although pre-1.0 minor releases may contain breaking changes. The MCP package is one part of a repository that also publishes Python and Node/TypeScript SDKs; those SDKs are separate from the MCP server.
