Description

This MCP implements tools to call the Overseerr API, including fetching Overseerr server status and listing movie and TV requests with filter options. It is intended to be used with Claude/MCP-enabled agents to automate and surface request information (pending, available, date-filtered, etc.). Configuration is via environment variables or MCP server config and requires an Overseerr API key and URL. Useful for teams running a self-hosted Overseerr who want conversational automation around request management.
