      "args": ["-y", "datalikers-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "DATALIKERS_API_KEY": "your-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}

  --env DATALIKERS_API_KEY=your-api-key

    "datalikers": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "datalikers-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "DATALIKERS_API_KEY": "your-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "datalikers": {

      "env": {
        "DATALIKERS_API_KEY": "your-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Configuration

| Environment Variable | Description | Required | |---------------------|-------------|----------| | DATALIKERS_API_KEY | Your DataLikers API key | Yes | | DATALIKERS_URL | Custom server URL (for self-hosted instances) | No |

Development

git clone https://github.com/user/datalikers-mcp.git
cd datalikers-mcp
npm install
npm run build

Run tests:

DATALIKERS_API_KEY=your-key npm test

Tests without DATALIKERS_API_KEY will skip integration tests and only run unit tests.

How It Works

This is a thin proxy that connects to the DataLikers remote MCP server and exposes all its tools locally via stdio transport. No data processing happens locally — all requests are forwarded to the DataLikers API.
