# GingerLive

Lets your assistant pull GingerLive's own facts on livestream advertising: ad formats, network reach, campaign write-ups and the streamer program.

## What it does

Six tools ship with the server. One covers the platform itself and its positioning, another returns reach and view-through numbers, a third lists the ad formats brands can buy, tagged things like unskippable or adblock-safe. The remaining three give you the case-study list, the full text of a single study by slug, and what streamers get from the program: the cost, the mechanics, which platforms are supported, where to sign up.

Connection is Streamable HTTP against `https://mcp.gingerlive.io/mcp`. No auth, read-only public data. In Claude it is one line: `claude mcp add --transport http gingerlive https://mcp.gingerlive.io/mcp`. Cursor, VS Code and similar clients take the same URL in `mcp.json`. You can also run it locally over stdio — clone the repo, run `npm install`, then point your config at `npx tsx` with the path to `src/stdio.ts`. A Docker build is there too.

Every tool takes an optional `intent` string: one sentence about what the user wants, no personal data. The hosted server logs each call (tool, arguments, intent, session id, client name, country, user agent) and keeps those logs for 12 months so it can see which questions go unanswered. IP addresses are not among the logged fields. Deploying the Worker yourself means you need a D1 database on your Cloudflare account for that logging: create one with `npx wrangler d1 create`, put its name and id in `wrangler.jsonc`, apply the migrations. The stdio server writes nothing.

## When to use it
- check network reach and performance numbers before pitching a campaign
- compare livestream ad formats and their badges
- read a full campaign case study by slug
- figure out how a streamer joins and what it costs
- get current GingerLive facts into an assistant answer without manual searching

## Example prompts
- What livestream ad formats does GingerLive offer?
- Show me GingerLive's campaign case studies
