Short answer

How can I update my Kitsu progress with AI?

You tell your AI which anime or manga you're watching and what your new status is. Your agent then finds the entry in your Kitsu library and applies the update for you. You'll see your list stay in sync without opening the Kitsu app.

Where your updates land.

Library management outcomes

Your AI handles the data entry so your Kitsu profile stays current.

SYNCED

Updated watch status

The AI modifies your progress for a specific title. Your Kitsu library reflects the new status immediately.

VIEW

Current library list

Your agent pulls your existing entries to see what you are currently watching or have completed.

MANUAL

Human review needed

If the AI can't find a specific title in your list, you'll need to provide the exact name or add it yourself.

LOG

Library verification

The AI confirms the changes it made by checking the updated entry against your library data.

The workflow

What your AI does when you send a command.

The AI acts as a bridge between your chat interface and your Kitsu account.

  1. Find your entries

    The AI looks through your existing Kitsu library to identify the specific anime or manga you want to change.

    list_library_entries

  2. Identify the title

    It matches your text command to the correct item in your personal list.

    list_library_entries

  3. Apply the update

    The AI sends the new status or progress information to Kitsu for that specific entry.

    update_library_entry

  4. Confirm the change

    The agent verifies the update was successful by checking the entry again.

FAQ

How the Kitsu Connector behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI add new shows to my library?

    No. The AI can only update entries that already exist in your Kitsu library.

  • 02

    Will the AI delete my entire list?

    No. The AI only modifies specific entries that you explicitly tell it to change.

  • 03

    Can I use this to search for new anime?

    No. This MCP is designed to manage your existing library, not to browse the global Kitsu database for new content.

  • 04

    Does the AI handle my Kitsu password?

    No. Your login credentials are handled securely by Vinkius and are never shared with the AI model.

  • 05

    What happens if I misspell a title?

    If the AI cannot find a match in your library, it will tell you it couldn't find the entry instead of guessing.
