MCP support
The MCP server exposes the same tools and OAuth-backed access as the CLI, using stdio locally or HTTP. It connects to the Anomalia API over HTTPS; remote HTTP access requires a Bearer JWT.
Configuration
Remote servers need no local install. Pick your client, then copy the config or install in one click.

Servers that need sign-in will prompt on first connect.

Details
From the project READMEAnomalia CLI — Social Media AI Automation CLI, MCP Server & Agent Skill
Automate your social media from the terminal. Anomalia is the social
media AI autopilot that plans, writes, designs and publishes posts, blog articles and SEO/GEO
audits on autopilot. This repository is its command-line client, MCP server
(Model Context Protocol — stdio + HTTP) and agent skill: everything you need to run social
media automation, content generation and approval workflows from a terminal or an AI agent.
This repository ships three ways to drive the same product (same OAuth, same API, no static tokens):
| What | Who it’s for | |
|---|---|---|
| CLI | anomalia terminal commands | Humans & scripts |
| MCP | Model Context Protocol server (stdio + HTTP) | Cursor, Claude, other MCP hosts |
| Skill | Agent Skill (skills/anomalia/) | Coding agents / skills.sh / npx skills |
You need an Anomalia account. This is a client, not a standalone tool: every call talks to the Anomalia API over HTTPS. Without an account there is nothing to drive.
With the Anomalia CLI you can automate social media posting, approve AI-generated content in one tap, edit a carousel slide by slide, turn a post into a video, run SEO and GEO audits, and manage your blog — from the terminal or from an AI agent like Cursor or Claude.

1. CLI
Install
Pick one:
| Method | Command | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| npm | npm install -g anomalia-cli | Needs Node.js ≥ 20 |
| Homebrew | see below | macOS / Linux, standalone binary |
| Installer | see below | curl script → binary on PATH |
| From source | see below | Needs Bun |
npm
npm install -g anomalia-cli
# or: pnpm add -g anomalia-cli / bun add -g anomalia-cli
anomalia login
Homebrew
brew tap andreabuttarelli/anomalia-cli https://github.com/andreabuttarelli/anomalia-cli
brew install anomalia
anomalia login
Installer (standalone binary) — macOS arm64/x64 and Linux arm64/x64, no Node/Bun required:
curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/andreabuttarelli/anomalia-cli/main/scripts/install.sh | bash
anomalia login
Update later with anomalia update, or npm install -g anomalia-cli@latest / brew upgrade anomalia depending on how you installed. More detail: docs/distribute.md.
Quick start
anomalia brands
anomalia dashboard my-brand
anomalia content my-brand --status pending_user
anomalia approve my-brand --all
anomalia seo my-brand
anomalia web my-brand generate --topic "..."
anomalia ads my-brand --remix
anomalia ai my-brand --message "..." --pipe
Every command takes the brand slug as its first argument. anomalia --help lists them all;
anomalia <command> --help details one. Short id prefixes from tables are accepted; ambiguous
prefixes error instead of guessing.
| Area | Commands |
|---|---|
| Posts | content, approve, post <id> [show|edit|regenerate|slide|reorder|video|publish] |
| Planning | plan, weekly-plan, calendar, gtm |
| Brand | studio, voice, people, products |
| Web | seo, geo, keywords, web |
| Ads | ads — campaigns, spend, boost proposals, remix, duplicate/delete (--sync, --propose, --remix, --create, --approve, --pause, --resume, --duplicate, --delete, --reject, --ad per singola creatività) |
| Insight | dashboard, status, analytics |
| AI | ai --message "..." — natural language, full read/write access |

From source
Requires Bun.
git clone https://github.com/andreabuttarelli/anomalia-cli.git
cd anomalia-cli
bun install
bun run cli.ts --help
2. MCP server
Same tools and OAuth as the CLI. Docs: docs/mcp.md.
bun run mcp # stdio (local hosts)
bun run mcp:http # http://localhost:8787/mcp
Remote: https://mcp.anomalia.so/mcp (Bearer JWT required). Health: GET /health.
Cursor — stdio
{
"mcpServers": {
"anomalia": {
"command": "bun",
"args": ["run", "/ABS/PATH/to/anomalia-cli/mcp/stdio.ts"]
}
}
}
Cursor — HTTP
{
"mcpServers": {
"anomalia": { "url": "https://mcp.anomalia.so/mcp" }
}
}
If Connect fails with Not an https or loopback URI: cursor://…, your Cursor build is still
using the custom-scheme OAuth callback — use stdio above, update Cursor (loopback
http://localhost:8787/callback), or see docs/mcp.md.
- Local stdio:
logintool or existinganomalia login→~/.config/anomalia/session.json - Remote HTTP:
Authorization: Bearer <access_token>(401 without it is expected)
3. Agent Skill & plugins
Publishable Agent Skill for Cursor, Claude, skills.sh, and friends:
npx skills add andreabuttarelli/anomalia-cli --skill anomalia
# or
bash scripts/install-skill.sh --project
Package: skills/anomalia/ → plugins/anomalia/skills/anomalia/ (SKILL.md + references/ for MCP setup, tool map, CLI).
When the skill is active, agents prefer MCP tools if connected, otherwise the CLI.
Claude Code / Codex marketplace plugin
Same skill + remote MCP, packaged for plugin install and directory submit:
# Claude Code
/plugin marketplace add andreabuttarelli/anomalia-cli
/plugin install anomalia@anomalia
# Codex
codex plugin marketplace add andreabuttarelli/anomalia-cli
Submit checklist (Claude community directory + OpenAI Plugins Directory): docs/plugins.md.
Configuration
Zero config by default → https://anomalia.so, with automatic fallback to
http://localhost:5173 when a local app is answering.
| Variable | Purpose |
|---|---|
PUBLIC_APP_URL | Point CLI/MCP at another Anomalia instance |
SENTRY_DSN | (MCP HTTP / Vercel) Errors → Sentry |
SUPABASE_SERVICE_ROLE_KEY | (MCP HTTP / Vercel) Rows in mcp_logs |
MCP_PUBLIC_URL | Public MCP base URL for OAuth metadata |
Session: ~/.config/anomalia/session.json. anomalia logout clears it. No secrets are embedded
in this repo or the binary.
Architecture
Thin HTTPS client — no DB access, no coupling to the Anomalia server codebase:
CLI ──┐
MCP ──┼── HTTPS ──► /api/v1/* ──► Anomalia
Skill ─┘ (guides agents to CLI or MCP)
- CLI commands:
commands/+cli.ts - HTTP client:
lib/api.tsonly - MCP:
mcp/(reuseslib/api.ts, registers tools) - Skill / plugins:
skills/anomalia/→plugins/anomalia/(Claude + Codex marketplace manifests)
Development
bun install
bun run cli.ts --help
bun run mcp
bun run mcp:http
bun run typecheck
bun test
bun run build # binary → dist/
bun run build:all # all four targets
bun run vercel-build # MCP bundles under mcp/api/
Releases: push a v* tag → CI typechecks, tests, cross-compiles binaries + .tar.gz +
SHA256SUMS.txt on the GitHub Release, bumps Formula/anomalia.rb,
and publishes anomalia-cli to npm when NPM_TOKEN is set. Details: docs/distribute.md.

Comments
New to MCP?
From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
