Documentation Overview

looot MCP

looot is one gateway to about 2,500 data provider operations: email find and verify, company enrichment, SEO and SERP data, social profiles, web scraping and more. One token, one prepaid balance, one run contract.

The server is hosted at https://api.looot.ai/mcp (streamable HTTP). Most clients connect to it directly and sign in with the browser. This repo adds two things:

looot-mcp, a small npm bin that bridges stdio to the hosted server, for clients that only speak stdio. It runs a pinned mcp-remote (0.14.3) and adds nothing else.
server.json, the MCP Registry entry (ai.looot/looot), remote first.
gemini-extension.json and GEMINI.md, the Gemini CLI extension (remote server plus the looot skill as context).
llms-install.md, setup steps an AI agent such as Cline can follow on its own.

looot-mcp is not on npm yet, so the npx looot-mcp lines below work only after a release. Every remote setup works today.

Install

Pick your client. Each one connects to the hosted server and opens a browser sign-in the first time. To use an agent token instead, see Authentication.

Claude Code

Terminal

claude mcp add --transport http looot https://api.looot.ai/mcp

Then run /mcp, pick looot and choose Authenticate.

Claude (claude.ai and Claude Desktop connector)

Settings, Connectors, Add custom connector. Name looot, URL https://api.looot.ai/mcp. Connect, then sign in with your looot account in the browser window that opens.

Cursor

Click the Install in Cursor button above, or add this to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "looot": { "url": "https://api.looot.ai/mcp" }
  }
}

VS Code

Click the Install in VS Code button above, or run:

bash

code --add-mcp '{"name":"looot","type":"http","url":"https://api.looot.ai/mcp"}'

or add it to .vscode/mcp.json:

config.json

{
  "servers": {
    "looot": { "type": "http", "url": "https://api.looot.ai/mcp" }
  }
}

Codex

bash

codex mcp add looot --url https://api.looot.ai/mcp
codex mcp login looot

Or in ~/.codex/config.toml:

toml

[mcp_servers.looot]
url = "https://api.looot.ai/mcp"

Gemini CLI

As an extension (adds the server and the looot usage guide):

bash

gemini extensions install https://github.com/loootai/looot-mcp

Or only the server:

bash

gemini mcp add --transport http looot https://api.looot.ai/mcp

Or in ~/.gemini/settings.json (httpUrl is Gemini's key for streamable HTTP):

config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "looot": { "httpUrl": "https://api.looot.ai/mcp" }
  }
}

Then /mcp auth looot inside Gemini CLI.

ChatGPT (developer mode)

Settings, Apps and Connectors, Advanced settings, turn on Developer mode. Then Create, name looot, MCP server URL https://api.looot.ai/mcp, authentication OAuth.

Not yet tested end to end with looot. The public page looot.ai/agents/chatgpt still says this path is not live.

Windsurf

In ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json:

config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "looot": { "serverUrl": "https://api.looot.ai/mcp" }
  }
}

Any stdio-only client

config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "looot": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "looot-mcp@0.1.0"] }
  }
}

Until looot-mcp is on npm, the same bridge runs straight from mcp-remote:

config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "looot": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote@0.14.3", "https://api.looot.ai/mcp", "--transport", "http-only"]
    }
  }
}

60-second quickstart

Add the server with one of the setups above and sign in.
Ask your agent: "Use looot catalog_overview with topic email, then find the cheapest way to verify an email." Browsing is free.
Top up before the first paid run. The balance tool returns the minimum and a payment link; new workspaces start at $0 and there is no trial credit.
Ask: "Run job:people.email.verify on jane.doe@example.com with fallback." The agent calls run, and the result carries the price actually charged.

Tools

The hosted server lists these tools (source: api.looot.ai/llms.txt):

Tool	What it does	Cost
`catalog_overview`	categories, platforms and jobs with counts and cheapest prices	free
`search_catalog`, `search`, `discover`	find endpoints for a job, ranked by `prefer`	free
`discover_smart`	ranks a shortlist against a plain-English use case	small paid AI call
`inspect`	input and output schema, price formula, estimated max cost	free
`run`	holds the estimated cost, runs, settles; accepts `job:<id>` and `fallback`	paid
`runs_get`, `runs_list`, `runs_cancel`, `runs_evidence`	run status, history, cancel, per-attempt receipts	free
`balance`, `top_up`	balance and a Stripe payment link	free
`my_tools`, `capability_request`	workspace tools, ask for a missing job	free

Authentication

Browser sign-in (OAuth) is the default. The server answers an unauthenticated call with 401 and WWW-Authenticate: Bearer resource_metadata=..., and every client above follows that.

For headless agents, create an agent token at looot.ai (Settings, Agent tokens) with at least catalog.read, runs.read and runs.execute, then export it:

server.ts

export LOOOT_TOKEN=cs_ms_...   # shown once, never commit it

looot-mcp picks up LOOOT_TOKEN and sends it as a bearer header. The token stays out of the process list: the bridge passes Authorization:Bearer ${LOOOT_TOKEN} and mcp-remote expands it from its own environment.
Claude Code: add --header "Authorization: Bearer $LOOOT_TOKEN" to the claude mcp add line.
Codex: add bearer_token_env_var = "LOOOT_TOKEN" under [mcp_servers.looot].

Develop

Terminal

npm install --ignore-scripts
npm test            # unit tests, offline
npm run test:live   # free public routes only: /.well-known/mcp.json and the OAuth metadata
npm run scan        # leak scanner, also run by the pre-commit hook
