One connector, every AI

Letterboxd works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put Letterboxd to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.

Connect your client

One URL. Every client.

Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 6 capabilities arrive ready to run.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Letterboxd, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Letterboxd. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

FAQ

Questions Letterboxd owners ask.

  • 01

    How do I get an API key?

    Letterboxd API access is granted by request only: email api@letterboxd.com describing your intended use (subject = your app/project title). Approved apps receive an API key + API secret. There is no self-service registration.

  • 02

    How does the request signing work?

    Every request adds apikey, nonce (unique UUID) and timestamp (unix seconds) params. The signature is the lower-case hex HMAC-SHA256 of the salted bytestring METHOD \0 fully-qualified URL \0 JSON body, using your API secret. appended as the final signature query parameter. Form-encoded POSTs (like /auth/token) put the signature in the Authorization header instead.
