How to Set Up and Use Bilibili

The Bilibili MCP server connects AI clients to the Bilibili video platform API, enabling search, user lookup, video information retrieval, and danmaku (bullet-chat comment) extraction through natural language. It supports keyword-based video search, exact-match user and content lookups, and fetching the real-time comment stream (danmaku) for any video — making it useful for content researchers, developers building Bilibili integrations, or anyone who wants to query the platform without navigating the website.

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.10 or newer with uv installed
  • Claude Desktop or another MCP-capable client
  • Git to clone the repository (the server runs from source)
  • No Bilibili account or API key required for public search and video info endpoints
1

Clone the Bilibili MCP server repository

The server runs from source, so clone the repository to a local directory.

git clone https://github.com/huccihuang/bilibili-mcp-server.git
cd bilibili-mcp-server
2

Install dependencies with uv

The project uses uv for dependency management. Run uv sync to create the virtual environment and install all required packages.

uv sync
3

Note the full path to the project directory

The MCP client configuration needs the absolute path to where you cloned the repository. Run pwd to get it.

pwd
4

Add the server to your MCP client configuration

Edit claude_desktop_config.json to add the Bilibili MCP server, replacing /path/to/bilibili-mcp-server with the absolute path from the previous step.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bilibili": {
      "command": "uv",
      "args": [
        "--directory",
        "/path/to/bilibili-mcp-server",
        "run",
        "bilibili.py"
      ]
    }
  }
}
5

Restart your MCP client and test

Restart Claude Desktop, then ask it to search for a video on Bilibili to confirm the server is connected and working.

Bilibili Examples

Client configuration

Complete claude_desktop_config.json entry for the Bilibili MCP server, running from a cloned local copy of the repository.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bilibili": {
      "command": "uv",
      "args": [
        "--directory",
        "/home/user/bilibili-mcp-server",
        "run",
        "bilibili.py"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Prompts to try

These prompts exercise the four tools exposed by the Bilibili MCP server: general_search, search_user, get_precise_results, and get_video_danmaku.

- "Search Bilibili for videos about machine learning in Python"
- "Find the Bilibili user 'LKs影视剪辑' and show me their follower count"
- "Get precise video search results for 'Vue.js tutorial 2024' on Bilibili"
- "Fetch the danmaku comments from Bilibili video BV1xx411c7mD"
- "Search for live streams about coding on Bilibili"
- "Find articles about deep learning published on Bilibili"

Troubleshooting Bilibili

uv command not found when starting the server

Install uv with 'curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh', then open a new terminal. Verify with 'uv --version'. If using Claude Desktop on macOS, you may need to specify the full path to uv in the command field of the config (e.g., /Users/yourname/.cargo/bin/uv).

API requests return errors or empty results for some searches

Bilibili's public API rate-limits unauthenticated requests. If you are making many requests in quick succession, add a delay between calls. Some content may also be region-restricted and unavailable outside mainland China.

get_video_danmaku returns no data

Ensure you are providing the BV ID (e.g., BV1xx411c7mD) or AV number in the correct format. Danmaku data requires a valid video identifier. Some older or unlisted videos may have danmaku disabled by the uploader.
