- **Simulcast schedule** — current and past seasonal tags
- **Subscription** info — tier, renewal date, status

## Setup

### Install

```bash
npm install -g @striderlabs/mcp-crunchyroll
```

Or use with npx (no install needed):

```json
{
  "command": "npx",
  "args": ["-y", "@striderlabs/mcp-crunchyroll"]
}
```

### MCP Configuration

Add to your Claude Desktop config (`~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`):

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "crunchyroll": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@striderlabs/mcp-crunchyroll"]
    }
  }
}
```

Or if installed globally:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "crunchyroll": {
      "command": "striderlabs-mcp-crunchyroll"
    }
  }
}
```

## Authentication

After connecting, log in once with your Crunchyroll credentials:

```
crunchyroll_login(email: "you@example.com", password: "your-password")
