TakoCode MCP Server

TakoCode is an AI app-building platform. This repository documents the official TakoCode remote MCP server, which lets MCP clients (Claude, ChatGPT, and any other MCP-capable assistant) build, preview and publish full-stack web apps by directing TakoCode's hosted coding agent.

This is a hosted (remote) server. There is nothing to install and no code in this repository to run — the server runs on TakoCode's infrastructure. This repo holds the public listing metadata (server.json, the ChatGPT plugin package under chatgpt-plugin/) and documentation only.

Connect


Endpoint	`https://takocode.com/api/mcp`
ChatGPT directory endpoint	`https://takocode.com/api/mcp/chatgpt` — same account and tools, minus in-chat purchases (see below)
Transport	Streamable HTTP (MCP protocol `2026-07-28`, `2025-11-25`, `2025-06-18`, `2025-03-26`, `2024-11-05`)
Auth	OAuth 2.0 (RFC 8414 / 9728 discovery, PKCE, RFC 7591 dynamic client registration, RFC 8707 `resource`, RFC 9207 `iss`) — sign in with your TakoCode account
Account	takocode.com — $10/mo membership + prepaid wallet credits

Claude (web & desktop): Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector → paste https://takocode.com/api/mcp → sign in when prompted.

Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http takocode https://takocode.com/api/mcp

ChatGPT (custom MCP server): chatgpt.com/plugins → + → Add custom MCP server → name TakoCode, URL https://takocode.com/api/mcp, authentication OAuth → Create as a plugin → sign in when prompted. Available in workspaces that allow custom MCP servers (Business, Enterprise, Edu — web). Then type @TakoCode in a chat.

ChatGPT (directory plugin): the submission package lives in chatgpt-plugin/ (plugin.json, mcp.json, onboarding skill, assets). It points at https://takocode.com/api/mcp/chatgpt.

What your assistant can do

Tool	Kind	Surfaces	Description
`takocode_get_started`	read-only	all	Account status + the onboarding interview to run with the user
`get_profile`	read-only	all	The connected account's id, name and email (ChatGPT `openai/profile`)
`set_preferences`		all	Save autonomy / question / tier / budget preferences (enforced server-side)
`get_wallet`	read-only	all	Wallet balance, membership, month spend, live turn slots
`top_up_wallet`		`/api/mcp` only	Stripe checkout link for the human user ($5–$500 credits)
`list_projects`	read-only	all	Projects with publish status, live URL and spend
`create_project`		all	Create a new app project
`start_turn`	paid	all	Send one build goal to TakoCode's coding agent (async; billed from wallet)
`check_turn`	read-only	all	Poll build progress; final message, cost, files, optional screenshot
`get_preview_link`	read-only	all	Shareable ~4h link to the running dev app
`get_download_link`	read-only	all	Signed 1h ZIP download of the project source
`export_github`		all	Push project source to the user's connected GitHub
`publish_site`	paid	all	Deploy to a permanent public URL (explicit user approval required)
`check_publish`	read-only	all	Deployment status + live URL
`search_domains`

How it works

Your assistant orchestrates; TakoCode builds. The billable unit is an agent turn: one clear goal in, working code out. Long-running work is start/poll (start_turn → check_turn), so it survives client timeouts and disconnects.
Money is never autonomous. The assistant can never charge anyone: wallet top-ups and domain purchases return Stripe checkout links that only the human can complete, and publishing requires explicit user approval (plus per-user autonomy preferences and an optional monthly budget cap, enforced server-side).
Two surfaces, one server. /api/mcp is the full tool set. /api/mcp/chatgpt is the ChatGPT-directory surface: OpenAI's plugin guidelines do not allow directory plugins to sell credits, subscriptions or domains, promote upgrades, or link to checkout pages, so that surface omits top_up_wallet and buy_domain and describes entitlement gaps as "not available with the account's current membership or balance" with an informational link to the plans page only. Builds and publishing use the prepaid credits already on the account on both surfaces.
Every tool carries MCP annotations (readOnlyHint / destructiveHint / openWorldHint as explicit booleans, plus title) so clients can gate confirmations appropriately.

Security & privacy

The server is closed-source and runs entirely on TakoCode's infrastructure; connecting a client grants it scoped access to your TakoCode account only, via OAuth.
Tokens are bearer-scoped to your account; disconnect an assistant any time from Settings → Connected assistants (revokes every token it holds) or revoke individual personal access tokens.
