Common questions

Is Teneo Book Generation safe?

It passed 1 of 1 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?

You need to fill in: TENEO_API_KEY, TENEO_SERVICE_KEY

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.3) 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. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

teneo-book-mcp

MCP server for Teneo. Lets any MCP-capable agent — Claude Desktop, Cursor, Claude Code, or your own — generate a complete, publish-ready non-fiction book: full manuscript, cover, and PDF/EPUB/DOCX files.

"mcpServers": { "teneo-book": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "teneo-book-mcp"], "env": { "TENEO_API_KEY": "tk_live_..." } } } }

Tools

Tool	What it does
`teneo_capabilities`	Discover auth, pricing, request shape, workflow, and output shape. Start here.
`teneo_generate_book`	Start a book (async) → returns a `jobId`. Runs ~45 min. Charged in credits.
`teneo_book_status`	Poll a job; when `completed`, returns download URLs for the cover and PDF/EPUB/DOCX.
`teneo_generate_outline`	Generate an outline only, without running the full pipeline. Free.
`teneo_research_niche`	Niche research from a seed topic. Free.
`teneo_generate_cover`	Generate a cover only.
`teneo_evaluate_book`	Run quality evaluation on an existing generated book.

What it costs

Priced in Teneo credits. One credit is $69 singly, $59 each in a 3-pack, $44.90 each in a 10-pack; credits never expire.

requiredCredits = bookCredits + coverCredits + qualityCreditsReserve

bookCredits = wordBandCredits(estimatedWordCount) x modelMultiplier(model_version) estimatedWordCount = number_of_chapters x topics_per_chapter x subtopic_count x 350

A default request (12 chapters / 3 topics / 3 subtopics) estimates 37,800 words → 1.05 credits, about $72 at list. teneo_generate_outline and teneo_research_niche cost nothing, so validate direction before committing to a paid generation.

A funded Teneo balance is required before the first paid call — there is no pay-per-call endpoint yet. The live numbers, the full model-multiplier table, and the request schema are always at /api/agent/capabilities, which is authoritative if anything here disagrees with it.

Setup

Get a credential, then add the config block above to your MCP client.

Preferred (delegated): start at auth.teneo.io/auth.md, register for https://teneo.io/, have the user approve the claim, and exchange it for a delegated agent token. Pass it as TENEO_AGENT_TOKEN. The delegated user is charged.
Legacy: create an API key in your Teneo dashboard and pass TENEO_API_KEY=tk_live_....
Point at staging with TENEO_BASE_URL=https://staging.teneo.io.

Spend semantics

Worth knowing before you wire this into an autonomous loop:

Quoted before charged. A request that would exceed the balance returns 402 with the full quote and charges nothing — a safe way to read the exact price.
Idempotent. Send an Idempotency-Key header; replaying a request replays the original debit instead of charging twice.
Refunded on failure. A failed generation is refunded in full.
Async. A book takes ~45 minutes. Poll teneo_book_status, or pass callback_url for a completion webhook. Download URLs expire in ~1 hour; re-poll for fresh ones.

Not for

A single short answer, a blog post, or an article — answer those directly instead. Fiction and novels are not supported by this API.

Develop

npm test          # unit tests for the HTTP client (mocked fetch, no network)

npm start # run the MCP server over stdio

client.mjs is a dependency-free HTTP client; server.mjs wraps it as MCP tools. Both mirror the published OpenAPI contract.
