Quick Start

1. Get Your API Token

  1. Sign up at AceDataCloud Platform
  2. Go to the API documentation page
  3. Click "Acquire" to get your API token
  4. Copy the token for use below

2. Use the Hosted Server (Recommended)

AceDataCloud hosts a managed MCP server — no local installation required.

Endpoint: https://luma.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp

All requests require a Bearer token. Use the API token from Step 1.

Claude.ai

Connect directly on Claude.ai with OAuth — no API token needed:

  1. Go to Claude.ai Settings → Integrations → Add More
  2. Enter the server URL: https://luma.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp
  3. Complete the OAuth login flow
  4. Start using the tools in your conversation

Claude Desktop

cURL Test

bash
# Health check (no auth required)
curl https://luma.mcp.acedata.cloud/health

# MCP initialize
curl -X POST https://luma.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "Accept: application/json" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_TOKEN" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"initialize","params":{"protocolVersion":"2025-03-26","capabilities":{},"clientInfo":{"name":"test","version":"1.0"}}}'

3. Or Run Locally (Alternative)

If you prefer to run the server on your own machine:

bash
# Install from PyPI
pip install mcp-luma
# or
uvx mcp-luma

# Set your API token
export ACEDATACLOUD_API_TOKEN="your_token_here"

# Run (stdio mode for Claude Desktop / local clients)
mcp-luma

# Run (HTTP mode for remote access)
mcp-luma --transport http --port 8000

Claude Desktop (Local)

json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "luma": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["mcp-luma"],
      "env": {
        "ACEDATACLOUD_API_TOKEN": "your_token_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Docker (Self-Hosting)

bash
docker pull ghcr.io/acedatacloud/mcp-luma:latest
docker run -p 8000:8000 ghcr.io/acedatacloud/mcp-luma:latest

Clients connect with their own Bearer token — the server extracts the token from each request's Authorization header.
