A feature-rich local MCP server for Bilibili content. It requires credentials, supports search, subtitles, comments, favorites, and optional local ASR.

Why each score
Reliability 10/20
README claims ten tools, a verified acceptance chain, Vitest tests and npm test, but no CI workflow or committed test content was supplied for static verification, so the calibration cap of 12 applies; error codes (ASR_NOT_READY etc.) and limits are well disclosed, deducted for lack of verifiable runtime/handshake evidence.
Security and permissions 14/20
Good stated practices: hidden-prompt local credential entry, doctor never echoes cookies, subtitle-domain and HTTPS Bilibili-CDN allowlists, no access-control bypass, UGC treated as data; however the actual code is unavailable, cookies are stored plaintext in config. with no OS-level encryption by the project's own admission, and network boundaries cannot be statically confirmed. No red-line findings, so not scored 0-4.
Maintenance 11/20
Version 1.13.1, CHANGELOG, latest-release link, Issues and Discussions channels exist, but the project is small (12 stars); GitHub license metadata is NOASSERTION (repo says GPLv3, an inconsistency) and there is no evidence of a security-response channel or dependency-update policy — active with governance gaps.
Documentation 16/20
Strongest dimension: layered docs (CN/EN README, client setup, tool reference, changelog), install, credential acquisition, worked examples, error codes, limits, and privacy statements; deducted because all evidence is declarative, the referenced parameter tables were not reviewable, and some assumptions (Python only needed for ASR) are buried.
Setup experience 13/20
Node 20+ prerequisite, one-line npx registration, an agent-assisted install prompt, and a setup/check/doctor verification flow are clear and include a client-config guide; deducted for the multi-step interactive cookie configuration, no verified client config examples or screenshots, and the static cap of 15.

Fit and risk

What it can accessReads local filesUses the network

Best for

  • Creators or researchers who want AI assistants to extract text content from Bilibili videos
  • Users who need to batch organize Bilibili favorites or subtitle data

Not for

  • Users not willing to provide Bilibili Cookie credentials
  • Anonymous use cases without accessing private content such as favorites
  • Users requiring long transcriptions that exceed resource limits

Required permissions

  • Requires Bilibili login credentials (Cookie) for features like search and favorites
  • Credentials stored locally in config file (~/.bilibili-mcp/config.json)
  • Requests are sent only to official Bilibili endpoints

Risks and side effects

  • Credentials stored locally without OS-level encryption
  • High-frequency calls may trigger Bilibili risk control or rate limiting
  • This is a third-party tool, not an official Bilibili service

Setup

Before you start

Runtime：Node.js 20+ · Python 3.9+

  1. Ensure Node.js 20+ is installed.
  2. Add the stdio server to client config: command npx, args ['-y','@xzxzzx/bilibili-mcp@latest'].
  3. Run npx -y @xzxzzx/bilibili-mcp@latest setup to configure credentials (Cookie), then run check to confirm.
  4. Restart/reconnect the client, call check_bilibili_credentials to verify login, then test with search_bilibili_videos.
claude_desktop_config.json 
{
  "type": "stdio",
  "command": "npx",
  "args": [
    "-y",
    "@xzxzzx/bilibili-mcp@latest"
  ]
}

Shown for Claude Desktop. Other clients may use a different file or key (VS Code uses "servers") — the configurator below converts it.

Generate and validate client config

Check that it works

After reconnecting the client, call check_bilibili_credentials and confirm configured: true and logged_in: true; then call search_bilibili_videos once with any topic — returning a video list confirms the setup works.

Troubleshooting

  1. If login fails, check credential configuration (run `setup` to force reconfigure)
  2. If ASR unavailable, ensure the model is installed via `setup` and `doctor --json` reports `asr.status: ready`
  3. If the MCP server is unavailable, check client configuration and network connectivity

Things to try

Once connected, you can ask your AI assistant things like:

  • Read the subtitles of BV1Eb411u7Fw with timestamps, then fetch the video's top comments and replies.
  • Search Bilibili for videos about 'discrete mathematics' and list 5 candidates sorted by platform relevance, with title, uploader, duration, and BVID.
  • Read the P4 subtitles of BV1Eb411u7Fw and search for the keyword '函数', returning match context, timestamps, and direct Bilibili moment links.
  • Iterate all favorite folders of my logged-in account, following next_cursor until finished, and report skipped_count.
