v0.3.0

First packaged release. An MCP stdio server that searches and reads
glp1forum.com — no API keys, no account.

Install

Claude Desktop (one click): download glp1forum-mcp.mcpb below and double-click it. No paths to
edit, no npm install — the server is bundled into a single dependency-free file.

Claude Code: /plugin marketplace add Sedation6612/glp1forum-mcp, then install the
glp1forum-mcp plugin. This channel also installs a skill that teaches Claude the forum's traps
(node scoping, AND-matched keywords, image-only pricing) — the .mcpb ships the tools without it.

Either way you need Node 18+ and system curl on your PATH.

Tools

• search_forum — full-text XenForo search: keywords, node scoping, author, date range, min
  replies, prefixes, ordering, pagination.
• get_thread — a thread's posts with author, timestamp, body, and permalink. Quotes are
  collapsed to readable snippets and links are preserved rather than flattened away.
• get_thread_images — downloads a thread's attachments at full size so vision can read
  them. Much of the forum's pricing and stock information is image-only and invisible to
  get_thread's text.
• list_threads / list_forums — browse sections and discover the numeric node IDs that
  search_forum needs.

Notes for callers

• Attachments come back full-size, not thumbnails. Worth stating because the difference is
  large: a representative attachment is 8,502 B as a thumbnail and 182,420 B (2584×1392) at full
  size — fine print like per-warehouse stock tables and COA purity figures is legible only in the
  latter. The cost is ~4.6k tokens per image, so get_thread_images is opt-in and defaults to 4
  images (max 5) to stay under a 25k output budget.
• Every request is globally throttled ≥2.5s apart, across all processes on the machine. Plan few
  calls. On a rate-limit error, wait ~60s and retry that one call once — don't loop.
• Verified on Windows curl 8.18 (Schannel). Cloudflare fingerprints TLS; Linux/macOS curl
  presents a different fingerprint and may get a 403. If every request 403s, that's why.

Known limitations

• Read-only. There is no posting, voting, or authentication — guest sessions only.
• The HTML parsers track XenForo's current templates. If the forum re-themes, npm run selftest
  is the tripwire.
