Open Claude Desktop 2. Go to Settings -> MCP Configuration 3. Add a tool using the following JSON configuration: ```json { "mcpServers": { "mcp-server-weread": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "mcp-server-weread"], "env": { // Method 1: Using Cookie Cloud (recommended) "CC_URL": "https://cc.chenge.ink", // Cookie Cloud URL "CC_ID": "Your ID", // Cookie Cloud ID "CC_PASSWORD": "Your Password" // Cookie Cloud Password // Or Method 2: Directly provide Cookie // "WEREAD_COOKIE": "Your WeRead Cookie" } } } } ``` #### Method 2: Using global installation 1. Globally install the package: ```bash npm install -g mcp-server-weread ``` 2. Use in Claude configuration: ```json { "mcpServers": { "mcp-server-weread": { "command": "mcp-server-weread", "env": { // Same as above } } } } ``` > Tip: Providing environment variables directly in Claude configuration is more convenient and recommended. ## CookieCloud Configuration To solve the problem of frequent Cookie expiration and the need to re-acquire and update environment variables, this project supports [CookieCloud](https://github.com/easychen/CookieCloud) service to automatically synchronize and update Cookies. CookieCloud is an open-source cross-browser Cookie synchronization tool that supports self-built servers. ### Configuration Steps: Install browser plugin Edge Store: [CookieCloud for Edge](https://microsoftedge.microsoft.com/addons/detail/cookiecloud/bffenpfpjikaeocaihdonmgnjjdpjkeo) Chrome Store: [CookieCloud for Chrome](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/cookiecloud/ffjiejobkoibkjlhjnlgmcnnigeelbdl) ### Configure CookieCloud Plugin Server address: Use the default server https://cc.chenge.ink or enter your self-built server address Click "Generate password automatically" Enter "weread" in the synchronization domain keyword Click "Save" and then click "Manual synchronization" to ensure the configuration takes effect [Optional] If you need the plugin to automatically keep alive, you can enter https://weread.qq.com in the keep alive section, and the plugin will automatically refresh the Cookie Configure CookieCloud variables in MCP Json: CC_URL=Your CookieCloud server address (or use my default server address https://cc.chenge.ink) CC_ID=Your CookieCloud user UUID CC_PASSWORD=Your CookieCloud password Note: After configuring CookieCloud, the system will prioritize using CookieCloud to obtain Cookies. If the acquisition fails, it will use the value of the WEREAD_COOKIE environment variable. ## Cookie Acquisition Method WeRead Cookies can be obtained through the following steps: 1. Log in to [WeRead web version](https://weread.qq.com/) using Chrome browser 2. Press F12 to open the developer tool, switch to the Network tab 3. Refresh the page, find the request for weread.qq.com in the request list 4. Find the Cookie field in the Headers, copy its complete content 5. Add the copied content to the MCP Json or .env file's WEREAD_COOKIE variable ## Usage Examples Here are some examples of dialogue with LLM: **Get Bookshelf Information** ``` User: Help me view my WeRead bookshelf LLM: I will acquire your WeRead bookshelf information. [LLM calls get_bookshelf tool] I acquired 208 books from your WeRead bookshelf. Here are some books: 1. "The Hidden Self" - David Eagleman 2. "Thinking, Fast and Slow" - Daniel Kahneman 3.
