What this server does

What is ShareThis MCP?

ShareThis MCP gives AI assistants a standardized way to interact with ShareThis through MCP. Instead of manually switching between dashboards and settings screens, you can ask your AI tool to create a property, validate ownership, configure an app, inspect its current settings, or generate a live app view.

This makes ShareThis usable in conversational AI workflows, coding assistants, and agent-based automation environments that support MCP.

Use to disable or remove a ShareThis app from a site.

sharethis_apps_liveview

Returns a live rendered view of the currently saved app using the ShareThis runtime.

Use to preview how an app appears based on the current saved configuration.

Tool schemas and parameters may evolve. Always calltools/list for the authoritative schema before invoking tools programmatically.

Usage

How to use ShareThis MCP

ShareThis MCP allows AI assistants to manage properties, configure apps, inspect live views, and troubleshoot setups using structured tools over the Model Context Protocol. Below are the most common ways to use it, along with example prompts and protocol-level requests.

Launch a new property faster

Create a property, validate ownership, and configure apps without navigating the dashboard.

Example prompts

• “Create a new ShareThis property for hello.com.”
• “Validate my property ownership for yourdomain.com.”
• “Add sticky share buttons to my yourdomain.com property.”

Audit an existing setup

Review properties and apps to understand what is currently configured.

Example prompts

• “List my ShareThis properties.”
• “Show me the details for property 123.”
• “List all apps configured on my property.”

Update app settings in natural language

Modify ShareThis apps by describing desired behavior instead of editing configs manually.

Example prompts

• “Show me the current config for sticky share buttons.”
• “Turn on inline reaction buttons and set the size to 40.”
• “Delete the follow buttons app from this property.”

Preview what is live

Inspect the current saved view of an app using the ShareThis runtime.

Example prompts

• “Show me the live view of inline share buttons for this property.”
• “Show me the live view of sticky share buttons for this property.”

Troubleshoot faster

Check property existence, validation status, and app configuration before making changes.

Example prompts

• “Check whether hello.com already has a ShareThis property.”
• “Is this property validated?”
• “List the apps currently configured for yourdomain.com.”

Inspect and compare app configurations

Retrieve current app settings before making changes so you can compare what is live with what you want to update.

Example prompts

• “Show me the current config for inline share buttons.”
• “Compare the current sticky share button setup with the reaction buttons config.”
• “Get the current config for inline follow buttons before making any changes.”

Protocol examples

MCP request examples

All ShareThis MCP interactions use JSON-RPC 2.0 over HTTP POST tohttps://mcp.sharethis.com/.

Initialize connection

{ "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": "init-1", "method": "initialize", "params": { "protocolVersion": "2025-03-26" } }

Discover available tools

{ "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": "tools-1", "method": "tools/list", "params": {} }

List properties

{ "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": "list-1", "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "sharethis_properties_list", "arguments": {} } }

Update an app

{ "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": "upsert-1", "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "sharethis_apps_upsert", "arguments": { "property_id": "PROPERTY_ID", "app_id": "inline-reaction-buttons", "config": { "enabled": true, "reactions": ["slight_smile", "heart_eyes"], "size": 40 } } } }

Always call tools/list to retrieve the latest tool schemas before making requests.

Authentication

OAuth and authorization rules

• Protected tools require OAuth bearer authentication.
• Clients should use the server’s OAuth discovery metadata rather than hardcoding auth assumptions.
• Each user must authorize their own ShareThis account connection.
• After authorization, the client should reuse the bearer token for later authenticated tool calls.
• Clients should expect standard OAuth redirects and consent flows for first-time setup.

For supported MCP clients, bearer access is obtained through the OAuth connection flow rather than manual token entry.

Technical requirements

Requirements

• A valid ShareThis account
• An MCP-capable client such as ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, Manus, or another compatible platform
• One-time OAuth approval for each user and client connection
• Network access to https://mcp.sharethis.com

Rules for clients

• Use GET / for documentation and POST / for MCP JSON-RPC calls.
• Always call tools/list to inspect current tool names and schemas.
• Do not assume that all tools are public; protected tools require OAuth.
• Use protocol-level JSON-RPC errors for invalid requests and tool-result errors for execution failures.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

• What is MCP?
  MCP, or Model Context Protocol, is a standard way for AI assistants to connect to external services and tools through a structured interface.
• Do I need coding experience to use ShareThis MCP?
