Features

  • ๐ŸŒ Multi-site Support: Supportโ€‹ both leetcode.com (Global) and leetcode.cn (China) platforms

  • ๐Ÿ“Š Problem Data Retrieval: Obtain detailed problem descriptions, constraints, examples, official editorials, and โ€‹user-submitted solutions

  • ๐Ÿ‘ค User Data Access: Retrieve user profiles, submission history, and contest performance

  • ๐Ÿ”’ โ€‹Private Data Access: Create and query user notes, track problem-solving progress, and analyze submission details (AC/WA analysis)

  • ๐Ÿ” Advanced Search Capabilities: Filter problems by tags, difficulty levels, categories, and keywords

  • ๐Ÿ“… Daily Challenge Access: Easily access daily challenge problems

Prerequisites

  1. Node.js runtime environment

  2. (Optional) LeetCode session cookie for authenticated API access

Installation

Installing via Smithery

To install leetcode-mcp-server for Claude Desktop automatically via Smithery:

npx -y @smithery/cli install @jinzcdev/leetcode-mcp-server --client claude

Manual Installation

# Install from npm npm install @jinzcdev/leetcode-mcp-server -g # Or run with Global site configuration npx -y @jinzcdev/leetcode-mcp-server --site global # Run with authentication (for accessing private data) npx -y @jinzcdev/leetcode-mcp-server --site global --session <YOUR_LEETCODE_SESSION_COOKIE>

Alternatively, you can clone the repository and run it locally:

# Clone the repository git clone https://github.com/jinzcdev/leetcode-mcp-server.git # Navigate to the project directory cd leetcode-mcp-server # Build the project npm install && npm run build # Run the server node build/index.js --site global

Usage

Visual Studio Code Integration

Add the following JSON configuration to your User Settings (JSON) file. Access this by pressing Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + P and searching for Preferences: Open User Settings (JSON).

Option 1: Using Environment Variables

{ "mcp": { "servers": { "leetcode": { "type": "stdio", "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@jinzcdev/leetcode-mcp-server"], "env": { "LEETCODE_SITE": "global", "LEETCODE_SESSION": "<YOUR_LEETCODE_SESSION_COOKIE>" } } } } }

Option 2: Using Command Line Arguments

{ "mcp": { "servers": { "leetcode": { "type": "stdio", "command": "npx", "args": [ "-y", "@jinzcdev/leetcode-mcp-server", "--site", "global", "--session", "<YOUR_LEETCODE_SESSION_COOKIE>" ] } } } }

For LeetCode China site, modify the --site parameter to cn.

TIP

The server supports the following environment variables:

  • LEETCODE_SITE: LeetCode API endpoint ('global' or 'cn')

  • LEETCODE_SESSION: LeetCode session cookie for authenticated API access

Priority Note: Command-line arguments take precedence over environment variables when both are specified. For example:

  • If LEETCODE_SITE=cn is set but you run leetcode-mcp-server --site global, the server will use global.

  • If LEETCODE_SESSION exists but you provide --session "new_cookie", the command-line session value will be used.
