Ani MCP
Connects Claude to AniList with a layer of intelligence on top of the raw API. You get the usual search, browse, and list management, but also taste profiling that builds a model from your completed anime and manga, personalized recommendations based on mood and seasonal lineup, compatibility scoring between users, sequel alerts for shows you've finished, and session planning when you have limited time. It handles franchise watch order traversal, year in review stats, and even generates shareable PNG taste profile cards. Write operations need an OAuth token. Works with Claude Desktop via npx or as an mcpb bundle. Good for when you want Claude to actually understand your anime preferences rather than just fetch data.
