Common questions

Is MCP Yoto safe?

It passed 4 of 4 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

Either way works: install it on your computer or connect to the cloud version.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed 17 days ago, and the latest version (0.1.0) reached the registry 2 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT Business and above.

What can I use instead?

mcp-yoto

Works with Yoto — connect your Yoto library to Claude and ChatGPT.

For parents

What you can do once it's connected:

See every card in your Yoto library (your own MYO cards and your family library) from inside Claude or ChatGPT.
Ask your AI assistant to build a new card — turn an audio file, a story, or a set of tracks into a card on your Yoto.
Add tracks to a card you've already made, without opening the Yoto app.
Search and set pixel-art icons for your cards and chapters.
Check on your family's Yoto players — see what's connected, without being able to control them remotely.
Coming when Yoto allows it: ask what's on a player right now — which card is loaded, battery, volume, nightlight, headphones.

What you can say

Once it's connected, just ask in plain English:

"Make a bedtime card from these three files and give each track a moon icon."
"Show me every card in my Yoto library."
"Add this new song to the 'Car Songs' card."
"Find a pixel-art icon of a dinosaur for chapter two."
"Which of my kids' Yoto players are online right now?"

How sign-in works

You paste one link into your AI app. That takes you to Yoto's own sign-in page — you sign in there, not here. We never see your password. Your Yoto tokens are stored encrypted, and the key is never written to our storage — it's wrapped using your AI app's own token, of which we keep only a hash, so a copy of our database alone decrypts nothing. Two honest caveats: the wrapping method is a fixed constant from the open-source library we use, not a secret unique to this server, so a live client token could decrypt the matching record; and because we run the server, we could in principle change its code to capture tokens in transit. The accurate claim is "nothing readable is stored, and we have no routine means to read it" — not "we are incapable of reading it". You can revoke access at any time from your Yoto account settings, which disconnects this instantly. See PRIVACY.md for the full, plain-English explanation.

🚧 Rebuild in progress (Sept 2026). The command-line version works today; the paste-one-link version for claude.ai / ChatGPT lands in ~2 weeks.

For developers

Connect

🚧 Rebuild in progress (September 2026). The npx route below works today. The paste-one-link route for claude.ai and ChatGPT goes live once the website address ships — expected September 2026.

claude.ai — Add the Yoto connector (or Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector, prefilled).

ChatGPT — Settings → Connectors → Advanced → Developer mode → Add connector → paste https://mcp-yoto.danpillay87.workers.dev/mcp.

Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http yoto https://mcp-yoto.danpillay87.workers.dev/mcp

Power users — run it locally today:

npx -y mcp-yoto

Cursor: Add to Cursor
VS Code: Install in VS Code

Tools

15 tools, all yoto_*, each shipped with a title, description, icon, and all four MCP annotation hints (read-only / destructive / idempotent / open-world):

Tool	Purpose	Key inputs	Read-only
`yoto_status`	Auth state, scopes, token-store kind (CLI), API reachability	–	yes
`yoto_sign_in`	CLI: launch loopback PKCE. Remote: sign in via your client's connector settings	`openBrowser?`	no
`yoto_sign_out`	CLI: delete local token. Remote: how to disconnect + revoke at Yoto	`confirm`	destructive
`yoto_list_cards`	My MYO cards or family library	`source: myo\	family`,` limit?`,` cursor?`	yes
`yoto_get_card`	Full card with chapters/tracks	`cardId`	yes
`yoto_create_card`	New MYO card, optional tracks + icon	`title`, `tracks[]?`, `iconRef?`	no
`yoto_update_card`	Rename / reorder / set icons	`cardId`, `patch`	destructive, idempotent
`yoto_delete_card`	Delete a MYO card	`cardId`, `confirm`	destructive
`yoto_upload_audio`	Upload + transcode → `yoto:#sha`	CLI `audioFilePath` · Remote `audioUrl` (https, size-capped, streamed)	no
`yoto_add_track`	Upload and append to a card	`cardId`, `audioFilePath\	audioUrl`,` trackTitle?`,` iconRef?`	no
`yoto_search_icons`	Search the public 16×16 icon catalogue	`query?`, `tags?`, `limit?`	yes

`yoto_list_devices`	Family players (view only)	–	yes
`yoto_get_device_config`	Device config incl. right-hand-button shortcuts; 403 → friendly `FORBIDDEN_SCOPE`	`deviceId`	yes
`yoto_player_status`	Live status: card, battery, volume, nightlight, headphones (not yet available — waiting on Yoto); uses a Yoto endpoint marked deprecated (no replacement published yet)	`deviceId?`, `refresh?`	yes

Architecture

One Cloudflare Worker runs the official MCP TypeScript SDK v2 (stateless Streamable HTTP) behind Cloudflare's own @cloudflare/workers-oauth-provider — the reference implementation for remote-MCP auth, so this project writes only the small Yoto-specific upstream handler, not its own OAuth server. The same core (Yoto client + tool definitions) also powers npx mcp-yoto, a local stdio server for direct use from Claude Code, Cursor, or any stdio-based MCP client. Requested scopes are profile offline_access user:content:view user:content:manage user:icons:manage family:library:view family:devices:view — deliberately no family:devices:control or family:devices:manage, which is what keeps this app eligible for Yoto's Verified listing. (family:device-status:view, needed for the still-registered yoto_player_status tool, isn't requested either: a live sign-in attempt with it included was refused outright by Yoto, so it currently can't be granted to third-party apps at all.)

Roadmap

When	What
Week of 14 Sep	Scaffold + this outreach post (you're reading it)
Week of 14 Sep	Yoto client + the 15 tools, tested against a mocked API
Week of 14 Sep	`npx mcp-yoto` — local sign-in working end to end
Week of 21 Sep	Remote connector: Cloudflare Worker + Yoto OAuth, live for claude.ai / ChatGPT
Week of 21 Sep	Security pass, real-client verification, Yoto Verified submission

Prior art

This isn't the first Yoto MCP server. bperkinspdx/yoto-mcp-server is the origin this project was forked from and is rebuilt on top of. tmcinerney/yoto-mcp is another independent Yoto MCP server on npm, built separately.
