Developer access

Talk to us first.

The Twitch MCP is in closed beta. It's a small team, every install gets real support, and Twitch rate limits mean we'd rather pair with you on setup than hand out the URL cold. Tell us what you're building and we'll get you in.

Currently gated. Direct contact preferred — no waitlist form, no marketing drip.

Twitch MCP — agentic tools for your stream

One install. Then just tell your agent what to do — “start a poll,” “clip that,” “make a 25-question trivia pack.” Your agent connects to your Twitch account and calls the right API.

Works with:Claude CodeClaude DesktopCursorWindsurfCodexAny MCP client

Step 1 — Connect Twitch and pick your scopes

Your token is encrypted in our database and auto-refreshed — you won't re-auth between sessions.

Then install

Paste the prompt into your agent, or run the command yourself.

APaste this prompt into your agent

Run "claude mcp add --transport http twitch https://laughingwhales.com/api/mcp" in my shell, then run /mcp inside Claude Code and walk me through the authenticate step. When it's done, call get_my_info and tell me which Twitch account is linked and which scopes are granted.

The agent runs the install and verifies the connection. You approve the Twitch OAuth screen when it opens.

BOr run it yourself
$ claude mcp add --transport http twitch https://laughingwhales.com/api/mcp

Then run /mcp in Claude Code and select Authenticate. Don't have Claude Code? Download it here →

Try it

Copy any of these into your agent. Each demonstrates a different skill affordance.

“Create a poll: what game next? Options: Elden Ring, Minecraft, Viewer's Choice. 90 seconds.”

Fastest mid-game poll — the wow moment.

create_poll

“Start a prediction: will I win this match? 2 minutes.”

Mid-match engagement without tabbing out.

create_prediction

“Update my title to 'Chill Minecraft stream' and switch the game to Minecraft.”

Two stream-info actions chained in one message.

update_stream_info

“Clip that. Then transcribe it and tell me what I just said.”

Clip + transcription — find moments without rewatching VODs.

create_cliptranscribe_clip

“Make a 25-question trivia pack about space exploration and start pushing it with a 45-second cooldown.”

Chains three tools: create game → add questions → start push. One sentence, three API calls.

“Add my Twitter @example and YouTube to my creator page, then add a build called 'Nurse Main' with these perks: Sloppy Butcher, Nurse's Calling, Thanatos, Dead Man's Switch.”

Populate creator pages in seconds — 40+ creator tools, all agentic.

creator_add_socialcreator_add_build

“End the poll, announce the winner in chat, then start a 2-minute prediction based on the top answer.”

Multi-step macro chained through one conversation — Twitch's UI can't do this.
