About Shipbook
Shipbook MCP connects Shipbook logs and Loglytics error insights to AI coding assistants for production debugging. Its searchable logs retain context such as user, device, session, and code location, alongside classified error summaries.
Key features
- 01Search and filter application logs
- 02Retrieve classified errors and occurrence counts
- 03Inspect user and device context in logs
- 04Create apps and retrieve credentials
- 05Use built-in workflows to investigate sessions and logs
Use cases
- 01Investigate frequent production crashes
- 02Trace a user session to reconstruct events
- 03Search logs by severity and time
- 04Audit logs for personal data and incorrect levels
MCP support
Shipbook provides a remote MCP server with tools for app management, log search, and Loglytics error lookup. It uses OAuth 2.1 authorization and also supports API keys.
Configuration
Remote servers need no local install. Pick your client, then copy the config or install in one click.
https://api.shipbook.io/mcpclaude mcp add --transport http io-shipbook https://api.shipbook.io/mcp{"mcpServers":{"io-shipbook":{"type":"http","url":"https://api.shipbook.io/mcp"}}}Open in Cursor{"servers":{"io-shipbook":{"type":"http","url":"https://api.shipbook.io/mcp"}}}Open in VS Code{"mcpServers":{"io-shipbook":{"type":"http","url":"https://api.shipbook.io/mcp"}}}{"mcpServers":{"io-shipbook":{"serverUrl":"https://api.shipbook.io/mcp"}}}Run commands in a terminal; paste JSON into the client’s MCP config and restart. Servers that need sign-in will prompt on first connect.

Details
From the project READMEShipbook MCP
Connect Shipbook to any AI coding assistant to investigate issues using real application logs. Shipbook's Loglytics engine automatically classifies errors and provides structured insights, while powerful log search lets AI agents explore runtime events. Logs include rich context — severity, user, device, session, and the exact file and code location — giving your assistant the ground truth it needs to debug effectively.
Prerequisites: A Shipbook account. Get started here.
Supported Platforms
Works with any MCP-compatible AI assistant:
MCP Tools
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
| get-account-apps | List all apps in your account (name, appId, platform, key, integration) |
| create-app | Create a new app and get its credentials (name, appId, key) |
| get-loglytics-errors | Retrieve grouped/classified errors with occurrence counts |
| get-logs | Search logs with 20+ filters (severity, user, device, time, etc.) |
AI Skills
Pre-built investigation and integration workflows (available in Cursor and Claude Code):
| Skill | Description |
|---|---|
| install-shipbook | Full SDK integration assistant — installs package, detects wrappers, sets log levels, integrates Crashlytics, adds API logging, audits for PII |
| audit-logs | Scan codebase for PII in logs, incorrect log levels, and sensitive data leaks |
| list-issues | List and analyze classified errors/warnings from Loglytics, group by root cause |
| debug-session | Trace a user's session to understand what happened |
| search-logs | Search logs using natural language queries |
Installation
Cursor
From Cursor Marketplace: Search for "Shipbook" in the Cursor marketplace and click Install.

Generic MCP Client
MCP endpoint: https://api.shipbook.io/mcp
Standard mcpServers configuration:
{
"mcpServers": {
"shipbook": {
"url": "https://api.shipbook.io/mcp"

Authentication
Shipbook MCP uses OAuth 2.1 for secure authentication. On first use, you'll be redirected to Shipbook to log in and authorize access. Your credentials are never shared with the AI assistant.
For MCP clients that don't support OAuth, you can use an API key from the Authentication Keys section in the Shipbook console:
{
"mcpServers": {
"shipbook": {
"url": "https://api.shipbook.io/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN"
}
}
}
}
Usage Examples
- "Install Shipbook in my project"
- "Audit my logs for PII and incorrect log levels"
- "Find errors in my app and suggest fixes"
- "What happened to the user with email [email protected]?"
- "Show me logs from the last hour with severity Error"
- "Investigate the most common crash in my iOS app"

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.
