Dokümantasyon

htmlradar-mcp

An MCP server that turns the HTML your agent just wrote into a tracked link — and lets the same agent ask, a day later, whether anyone read it. Claude Code, Cursor, Codex and any MCP client.

Most publish-from-an-agent servers stop at "here is a URL". This one keeps the other half: who opened the page, how long they stayed, how far they scrolled, and which sections held their attention. So "put this deck online" and "did Acme read the deck?" are both things you can just ask for.

Seven tools, one required environment variable, no telemetry.

Before you start

You need an HTMLRadar API key. Sign in at htmlradar.com, open Settings, and create one under API keys. A key is hr_live_ followed by 40 hexadecimal characters, and it is shown once. The free tier covers two tracked links; after that the server returns an upgrade message that the agent will relay to you rather than retrying.

The server refuses to start unless HTMLRADAR_API_KEY holds a well-formed key, and the message says which of three things went wrong: the variable is not set, it is an unresolved placeholder such as ${HTMLRADAR_API_KEY}, or it is set to something that is not a key. Some clients report a server as connected even when it exited at startup, so if a tool call fails, run the command by hand and read what it printed.

Install

The package is on npm. Every client below runs the same command, and needs Node.js 18 or newer (Claude Desktop brings its own):

npx -y htmlradar-mcp

Export the key in your shell first, so the key itself never becomes a command-line argument: arguments end up in your shell history and, on most systems, are visible in the process list to anyone else on the machine.

export HTMLRADAR_API_KEY=hr_live_…      # or read it from your password manager

Claude Code

claude mcp add htmlradar -e HTMLRADAR_API_KEY=$HTMLRADAR_API_KEY -- npx -y htmlradar-mcp

Check it with claude mcp list, or /mcp inside a session.

Claude Code plugin

The plugin wires up the same server and adds a skill that teaches Claude when to offer a tracked link. It reads HTMLRADAR_API_KEY from the environment Claude Code was started from, so the export above must happen before you start Claude Code; if it does not, the server receives the literal text ${HTMLRADAR_API_KEY} and exits with a message saying so.

/plugin marketplace add htmlradar/htmlradar
/plugin install htmlradar@htmlradar

Cursor

Put this in .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json to make it global:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "htmlradar": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "htmlradar-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "HTMLRADAR_API_KEY": "${env:HTMLRADAR_API_KEY}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor resolves ${env:NAME} inside env from your shell, which keeps the key out of a file you might commit. A literal "HTMLRADAR_API_KEY": "hr_live_…" works too.

One-click install, which writes the same entry: Add to Cursor

VS Code

.vscode/mcp.json. The inputs block makes VS Code ask for the key once, in a masked prompt, the first time the server starts; nothing is written into the file.

{
  "inputs": [
    {
      "type": "promptString",
      "id": "htmlradar-api-key",
      "description": "HTMLRadar API key (starts with hr_live_)",
      "password": true
    }
  ],
  "servers": {
    "htmlradar": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "htmlradar-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "HTMLRADAR_API_KEY": "${input:htmlradar-api-key}"
      }
    }
  }
}

One-click install, with the same masked prompt: Install in VS Code

Claude Desktop

Settings, then Developer, then Edit Config opens the file: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS, %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json on Windows. Claude Desktop does not expand environment variables, so the key goes in as written. Quit and reopen the app afterwards.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "htmlradar": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "htmlradar-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "HTMLRADAR_API_KEY": "hr_live_…"
      }
    }
  }
}

Codex CLI

codex mcp add htmlradar --env HTMLRADAR_API_KEY=$HTMLRADAR_API_KEY -- npx -y htmlradar-mcp

Or in ~/.codex/config.toml, forwarding the variable from your shell rather than writing the key into the file:

[mcp_servers.htmlradar]
command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "htmlradar-mcp"]
env_vars = ["HTMLRADAR_API_KEY"]

Windsurf

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "htmlradar": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "htmlradar-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "HTMLRADAR_API_KEY": "${env:HTMLRADAR_API_KEY}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cline

In the Cline panel open MCP Servers, then Configure, then Configure MCP Servers, which opens the settings file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "htmlradar": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "htmlradar-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "HTMLRADAR_API_KEY": "hr_live_…"
      },
      "disabled": false,
      "autoApprove": []
    }
  }
}

Zed

In settings.json:

{
  "context_servers": {
    "htmlradar": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "htmlradar-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "HTMLRADAR_API_KEY": "hr_live_…"
      }
    }
  }
}

Gemini CLI

~/.gemini/settings.json, or .gemini/settings.json in a project. Gemini CLI resolves $NAME inside env from your shell; gemini mcp list shows the connection status.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "htmlradar": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "htmlradar-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "HTMLRADAR_API_KEY": "$HTMLRADAR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Goose

~/.config/goose/config.yaml, or goose configure, then Add Extension, then Command-line Extension, with the same command and variable:

extensions:
  htmlradar:
    name: HTMLRadar
    type: stdio
    cmd: npx
    args: ['-y', 'htmlradar-mcp']
    envs: { 'HTMLRADAR_API_KEY': 'hr_live_…' }
    enabled: true
    timeout: 300

Any other MCP client

It is a plain stdio server. Any client that can launch a command with environment variables can run it:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "htmlradar": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "htmlradar-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "HTMLRADAR_API_KEY": "hr_live_…"
      }
    }
  }
}

Configuration

Variable	Required	Default	What it does
`HTMLRADAR_API_KEY`	yes	—	Your API key from htmlradar.com/settings.
`HTMLRADAR_API_URL`	no	`https://htmlradar.com`	Point at your own instance if you self-host HTMLRadar.

What the key can do

You are about to hand a key to an agent, so here is exactly what it opens.

A full-access key can create tracked links, make more links for a document that already exists, read the activity of the account's own links, switch a link off and back on, replace a document's contents, and read the plan.
A read-only key can list documents and links and read activity, and nothing else. Creating, revoking and replacing come back as a 403 that says so. Choose the scope when you create the key.
No key can delete anything — not a link, not a document. Deleting is only possible on the website, where a person types the confirmation.
No key can see another account. A share or document id that belongs to someone else comes back as not found rather than refused, so a key cannot be used to find out which ids exist.
A key is shown once, and only a hash of it is stored. Revoke it at htmlradar.com/settings; revocation is immediate.
Every route is rate-limited per key, per account and per address: 75 new links an hour per account on Pro and 30 on free, 120 an hour for listing and revoking, 300 activity reads an hour.
The only data that leaves your machine is the HTML the agent passes in and the parameters of the call, sent to HTMLRADAR_API_URL (by default https://htmlradar.com). The server reads no files and sends no telemetry.
The activity report includes the email addresses recipients typed at the gate, so the agent sees those.

Tools

`share_html`

Publishes HTML as a tracked link. Pass the markup itself in html. The tool does not read files: if the document is already on disk, the agent reads it with its own file tools and passes the contents, so whatever permissions you set on those tools still apply.

Input	Type	Default	Constraint
`html`	string	required	The full markup. Up to 5 MB; refused before any network call.
`title`	string	the document `<title>`	Name on your dashboard. Recipients never see it.
`recipient_label`	string	none	Who the link is for, e.g. "Acme". One link per recipient reads best.
`require_email`	boolean	`true`	Ask for an email before the document opens.
`password`	string	none	Extra gate on top of the email gate. At least 8 characters.
`lock_deck`	boolean	`true`	Blocks save and print and adds a watermark. Pass `false` to allow both.
`allowed_email_domains`	string[]	none	Only these domains may open it, e.g. `["acme.com"]`.
`expires_in_hours`	integer	never	Positive whole number. The link stops working after it.
`slug`	string	generated	Custom link name, so the URL reads `/r/acme-proposal`. Paid plans.

Example output:

Tracked link: https://htmlradar.page/r/acme-proposal
Dashboard:    https://htmlradar.com/docs/22222222-2222-4222-8222-222222222222
Share id:     11111111-1111-4111-8111-111111111111

The recipient is asked for their email, then sees the document exactly as written — never the tracking, the dashboard, or anyone else who opened it.

Share this deck with Acme as a tracked link, email gate on.

Read ./proposal.html and turn it into a tracked link for hello@acme.com, expiring in 72 hours.

`get_share_activity`

Two inputs. share_id (string): the share id, its slug (the part after /r/ in the link), or the link itself. include_detail (boolean, default false): also return each reader's country, city, device and referrer, as a detail object on every viewer. That last one is off by default on purpose — it is a named person's location and device, and it would be passing through a language model — so ask for it only when somebody wants to know where or on what a document was read. Reports whether the link was opened, by whom, when they first opened it, how long they were actively reading, how far they scrolled, and which sections took the most time. The raw JSON follows the summary so the agent can compute on it; sections there are in document order.

Example output:

Share 11111111-1111-4111-8111-111111111111 — https://htmlradar.page/r/acme-proposal
Opened: yes — 1 viewer

Did anyone read the proposal I shared yesterday?

Which sections of the Acme deck did they actually spend time on?

`create_share`

Makes another tracked link for a document that already exists — one link per recipient, so their reading reports stay separate. It uploads nothing and creates no second copy of the file.

Input	Type	Default	Constraint
`document_id`	string	required	From `list_shares`, or the id `share_html` returned.
`recipient_label`	string	none	Who the link is for, e.g. "Acme".
`require_email`	boolean	`true`	Ask for an email before the document opens.
`password`	string	none	Extra gate on top of the email gate. At least 8 characters.
`lock_deck`	boolean	`true`	Blocks save and print and adds a watermark.
`allowed_email_domains`	string[]	none	Only these domains may open it.
`expires_in_hours`	integer	never	Positive whole number.
`slug`	string	generated	Custom link name. Paid plans.

Send the Q3 deck to these five investors, one link each, and tell me who reads it.

`list_shares`

Lists the account's tracked links, newest first: the slug, the recipient label, the document title, whether it has been opened and when, and the share and document ids the other tools take. Returns at most 50. One optional input, before (string): the next_before cursor printed at the end of a previous result, for the page of older links. A cursor is <created_at>|<share id> — both halves, because fifty links created in the same second would otherwise fall across a page boundary and the ones sharing it would be skipped. Pass it back exactly as printed.

Example output:

2 links, newest first:

What did I send last week, and did anyone open it?

`revoke_share`

Switches a tracked link off. Anyone who opens it afterwards sees that it is no longer available, and you are emailed that somebody tried. Reversible: call it again with revoked: false. It never deletes anything — deleting a link is deliberately only possible on the website.

Input	Type	Default	Constraint
`share_id`	string	required	The share id, its slug, or the link itself.
`revoked`	boolean	`true`	`false` switches the link back on.

Kill the link I sent to the wrong address.

`replace_document`

Replaces the contents of a document. Every existing link keeps its address, its settings and its reading history, and serves the new contents from the next time it is opened, so nobody has to be sent a second link. The new HTML is screened for phishing signals as every upload is, and the previous version is kept in the document's history.

Input	Type	Default	Constraint
`document_id`	string	required	From `list_shares`.
`html`	string	required	The full replacement markup. Up to 5 MB.

Four of the six stopped at the pricing section. Rewrite it and put it behind the same links.

`whoami`

No inputs. Reports the account, its plan, and how many free tracked links are used. On Pro the cap reads unlimited.

Example output:

HTMLRadar account 33333333-3333-4333-8333-333333333333
Plan: free
Free tracked links used: 1 of 2

How many free HTMLRadar links do I have left?

Troubleshooting

npx: command not found. The server runs on Node.js 18 or newer. Install it from nodejs.org, open a new terminal, and check with node --version.

HTMLRadar rejected the API key. Three usual causes. A character came along with the paste: keys are exactly hr_live_ plus 40 hexadecimal characters. The key was revoked at htmlradar.com/settings: create a new one. Or the variable was never exported, so the client passed the literal text ${HTMLRADAR_API_KEY} through: since 0.1.1 the server refuses to start in that case and its message names the placeholder.

Free accounts get 2 tracked links. Both free links on the account are used, and revoked or expired links still count. The tool returns this message instead of a link and tells the agent not to retry. Upgrade at htmlradar.com/upgrade, or check the count with whoami.

A red status dot in Cursor. The server exited at startup. Nine times out of ten the variable was not exported in the shell that launched Cursor, so ${env:HTMLRADAR_API_KEY} resolved to nothing. Launch Cursor from a terminal where the variable is exported, or write the literal key into .cursor/mcp.json. The startup message is in the Output panel under MCP Logs.

Is it alive? In Claude Code, claude mcp list in the terminal or /mcp in the session; a connected server shows a tick. In any client, ask "how many free HTMLRadar links do I have left?": that calls whoami, which needs the key and the network and nothing else, so it works as a health check.

Run it by hand. The MCP Inspector (Node.js 22.19 or newer) starts the server and lets you call each tool from a browser page:

npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector -e HTMLRADAR_API_KEY=$HTMLRADAR_API_KEY npx -y htmlradar-mcp

To see only the startup check, run npx -y htmlradar-mcp directly: with a missing, placeholder or malformed key it prints what is wrong and exits.

Versions

Current: htmlradar-mcp@0.2.0, Node.js 18 or newer. Every install line above runs npx -y htmlradar-mcp, which fetches the latest version. The Claude Code plugin is different: its .mcp.json pins htmlradar-mcp@0.2.0, and plugin users move to a newer server when the plugin itself is updated (/plugin marketplace update htmlradar picks up a new pin; third-party marketplaces do not auto-update by default). What changed in each release is in CHANGELOG.md.

What the recipient sees

The document, as written. They are asked for an email address first unless you pass require_email: false. They never see the tracking, the dashboard, or anyone else who opened the link. HTMLRadar stores no raw IP address, no keystrokes, no mouse positions and no session replay, and recipients can opt out with window.HTMLRadar.optOut().

Privacy of the server itself

No telemetry, no analytics, no phoning home. The only network calls this server makes are to HTMLRADAR_API_URL — by default https://htmlradar.com — and only when you call a tool.

Security

share_html and replace_document take HTML markup inline and nothing else. There is no file-path argument and the server never reads the filesystem; the agent reads files with its own tools, under the permissions you set on those tools.
Documents over 5 MB are refused before any network call.
Nothing here deletes. The destructive actions — deleting a link, deleting a document — are deliberately absent from the server and stay on the website.
A read-only key cannot create, revoke or replace anything, so a watching assistant can hold a credential whose worst case is a stale report.
The API key is read from the HTMLRADAR_API_KEY environment variable only. It is never taken from an argument, a file or a tool call, and never written to stdout.
The only network destination is HTMLRADAR_API_URL, and the built dist/index.js has no runtime npm dependencies: everything is bundled into one file.

Development

pnpm --filter ./packages/mcp build      # bundles src/ into dist/index.js
pnpm --filter ./packages/mcp typecheck
pnpm --filter ./packages/mcp test       # vitest, fetch mocked, no network
pnpm --filter ./packages/mcp smoke      # starts the built server and lists its tools over stdio
pnpm --filter ./packages/mcp build:mcpb # dist/htmlradar.mcpb, the one-click bundle for Claude Desktop

To run an unpublished build, point your client at node /path/to/htmlradar/packages/mcp/dist/index.js instead of npx -y htmlradar-mcp.
