Raycast workflow automation MCP server with 9 tools
Raycast MCP server is a locally run integration for AI assistants that speak the Model Context Protocol. Raycast workflow automation MCP server with 9 tools.
A comprehensive Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Raycast workflow automation, providing 9 powerful tools to integrate Raycast with AI assistants like Claude.
Once Raycast is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:
Prerequisites — The Prerequisites tool exposed by this serverSetup — The Setup tool exposed by this serverraycast-mcp-server on npm is all you need. Most clients run it directly, so configuration is a few lines and a restart.
You will need 2 environment variables: RAYCAST_API_KEY, RAYCAST_TEAM_ID. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.
Among the developer tooling options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. Raycast's toolset — Prerequisites, Setup — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by ExpertVagabond; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.
