The SeaTalk MCP Server facilitates interaction with the SeaTalk API, allowing AI assistants to manage messages, access employee data, and engage in group chats.
SeaTalk MCP Server
This server provides Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools to interact with the SeaTalk API. It enables AI assistants to send and retrieve messages, access employee information, and interact with group chats via SeaTalk.

npm install
-
Create a
.env
file with your SeaTalk credentials:SEATALK_APP_ID=your_app_id SEATALK_APP_SECRET=your_app_secret
-
Build the server:
npm run build
-
Start the server:
npm start
Installation
You can install this package via npm:
# Install globally
npm install -g seatalk-mcp-server
# Or use directly with npx (auto-install without prompts)
npx -y seatalk-mcp-server
NPX Usage
This package can be used directly via npx
without installing it globally. The -y
flag automatically accepts installation prompts for seamless automation.
Configuration in MCP Settings
Configure the SeaTalk server in your MCP settings by providing the required environment variables:
{
"mcpServers": {
"seatalk-mcp-server": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "seatalk-mcp-server"],
"env": {
"SEATALK_APP_ID": "your_app_id_here",
"SEATALK_APP_SECRET": "your_app_secret_here"
},
"disabled": false
}
}
}
Required environment variables:
SEATALK_APP_ID
: Your SeaTalk application IDSEATALK_APP_SECRET
: Your SeaTalk application secret
Using with Cursor or other MCP-compatible tools
After configuring the server in your MCP settings, SeaTalk tools will be available for use in Cursor or other MCP-compatible environments.
Local Development & Manual Build
If you prefer to clone the repository and build the server yourself, follow these steps:
Prerequisites
- Node.js 16.0.0 or higher
- npm or yarn package manager
Clone and Build
-
Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/muhammad-iqbal/seatalk-mcp-server.git cd seatalk-mcp-server/seatalk-server
-
Install dependencies:
npm install
-
Create environment configuration:
# Create .env file with your credentials echo "SEATALK_APP_ID=your_app_id_here" > .env echo "SEATALK_APP_SECRET=your_app_secret_here" >> .env
-
Build the project:
npm run build
-
Run the server directly:
node build/index.js
Configuration in MCP Settings (Local Build)
When using the locally built version, configure your MCP settings to point to the built file:
{
"mcpServers": {
"seatalk-mcp-server": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/path/to/your/seatalk-mcp-server/seatalk-server/build/index.js"],
"env": {
"SEATALK_APP_ID": "your_app_id_here",
"SEATALK_APP_SECRET": "your_app_secret_here"
},
"disabled": false
}
}
}
Note: Replace /path/to/your/seatalk-mcp-server/seatalk-server/build/index.js
with the actual absolute path to your built index.js file.
Development Workflow
For active development, you can use the watch mode:
# Build and watch for changes
npm run watch
# In another terminal, run the server
node build/index.js
This approach is useful for:
- Contributing to the project
- Customizing the server for specific needs
- Testing unreleased features
- Running in environments where npx is not available
