Generate token: https://twitchtokengenerator.com ✅ Choose Custom Scope Token → scroll to bottom → select scopes (tip: “Select All,” then deselect any you don’t want). ✅ Keep the tab open — you’ll need the Access Token and Client ID in step 3. ------------------------------- 2. Get (Twitch) Broadcaster ID: https://streamweasels.com/tools/convert-twitch-username-to-user-id/ ✅ Enter your Twitch username to get your numeric Broadcaster (Twitch) ID. ✅ Keep the tab open for step 3. ------------------------------- 3. Configure Smithery: https://smithery.ai/server/@Eclipse-XV/twitch-mcp-smithery ✅ In the right-hand box, paste in: Channel Name → Client ID → Access (Auth) Token → Broadcaster ID ------------------------------- 4. Install & Setup Cursor (free Desktop plan): https://cursor.com/home?from=agents ✅ In Cursor, set Agent Mode = Auto (right panel). You'll want to click the Agent Dropdown and edit model choice to Auto. (Optional) Turn on Auto-Run Mode to skip per-request approvals. ✅ On Smithery, click One-click Add to Cursor → Approve. ------------------------------- 5. Test by sending messages or creating polls. ✅ Actions run as your broadcaster account — keep your token private. If compromised or unsure, regenerate the token.
The repository has 4 stars and 1 forks, with the last commit a year ago. Six months or more without a commit doesn't mean the server is broken, but check the open issues before depending on it in production.

Advanced Features
Smart User Resolution
When performing moderation actions, you can provide either:
- An exact username
- A behavioral descriptor (e.g., "toxic", "spam")
- A partial username match
The server will attempt to resolve the appropriate user based on chat history.
Intelligent Timeout Duration
The timeout tool automatically suggests an appropriate duration based on the severity of the provided reason:
- Spam/excessive emotes: 5 minutes
- Toxic behavior: 30 minutes
- Severe violations: 60 minutes
- Other violations: 10 minutes (default)
Known Issues & Limitations
Image Description Support
While AI assistants (like Cursor/Claude) can process and describe images, there are some considerations when using this with the Twitch MCP server:
- Image processing: Image analysis is handled by the AI client, not the MCP server itself
- Message length: AI-generated descriptions can be quite long. Twitch chat has a 500 character limit per message
- Auto-truncation: The
sendMessageToChattool now automatically truncates messages that exceed 500 characters and notifies you when this happens - Workaround: For detailed image descriptions, consider asking the AI to provide a shorter summary suitable for chat
Other Considerations
- API Rate Limits: Twitch API has rate limits that may affect rapid successive calls
- Permissions: Ensure your Twitch token has the necessary scopes for all desired features
- Stream Status: Some tools (like creating clips) require an active stream
