# Character Details MCP
An MCP server that helps LLMs gather rich, structured information about fictional characters for storytelling and image generation.
It fetches from **Fandom wikis** and **Wikipedia**, then caches results locally (24-hour TTL) for fast follow-up responses.
## Tools
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
| `get_character` | Fetch full character details (cached or live) |
| `refresh_character` | Force re-fetch from external sources |
| `list_characters` | List all locally cached characters |
| `remove_character` | Delete a character from the local cache |
| `generate_image_prompt` | Build a tag list for image generation tools |
| `generate_story_context` | Build a structured reference doc for roleplay/writing |
## Data Sources
- **Fandom wikis** — franchise-specific, much richer character data
- **Wikipedia** — supplements missing sections
Supported franchise → wiki mappings are defined in `fetcher.py` (`FRANCHISE_WIKIS`). Adding a new franchise is a one-liner.
## Setup
### Requirements
- Python 3.11+
- [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/) (recommended) or pip
### Install
```bash
cd character_details
uv pip install -e .
```
### Run (stdio transport)
```bash
uv run character-details
```
### Add to Claude Desktop
Edit `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"character-details": {
"command": "uv",
"args": [
"run",
"--directory",
"/absolute/path/to/character_details",
"character-details"
]
}
}
}
```
## Docker Deployment
A [`deploy.sh`](deploy.sh:1) script is provided for easy Docker build and deployment.
### Quick Start
```bash
./deploy.sh build # Build the Docker image
./deploy.sh run # Run the container locally
```
### Commands
| Command | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| `build` | Build the Docker image |
| `run` | Run the container locally with cache volume |
| `push` | Push the image to a registry |
| `deploy` | Build and push in one step |
| `clean` | Remove local images and containers |
### Options
```bash
./deploy.sh build -t v1.0.0 # Build with specific tag
./deploy.sh push -r docker.io/myuser/ # Push to Docker Hub
./deploy.sh deploy -t v1.0.0 -r ghcr.io/myuser/ # Build and push to GitHub Container Registry
```
### Environment Variables
- `IMAGE_TAG` - Image tag (default: latest)
- `REGISTRY` - Registry prefix (e.g., "docker.io/username/")
- `IMAGE_NAME` - Image name (default: character-details)
## Cache
Character data is cached at `~/.local/share/character_details/cache/` as JSON files.
Each entry expires after 24 hours. Use `refresh_character` to force an update.
