Kadam Ad Network

@kadam-net/mcp-server

MCP server for Kadam ad network — manage campaigns, creatives, audiences, sites, and analytics via AI agents.

Built on the Model Context Protocol (MCP), the open standard for connecting LLMs to external tools and data.

        "KADAM_PUB_API_KEY": "your-publisher-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Any MCP client (universal one-liner)

npx add-mcp @kadam-net/mcp-server

Docker

docker run -i --rm \
  -e KADAM_ADV_API_KEY=your-key \
  kadam/mcp-server:latest

npm global

npm install -g @kadam-net/mcp-server
KADAM_ADV_API_KEY=your-key kadam-mcp-server

Configuration

At least one API key must be provided in stdio mode. In HTTP mode, tokens are passed per-request via Bearer authentication.

HTTP Transport (multi-tenant deployment)

For server-side deployment serving multiple users:

docker run -d --name kadam-mcp \
  -e MCP_TRANSPORT=http \
  -p 8080:8080 \
  kadam/mcp-server:latest

Connecting via HTTP (Cursor / Claude)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kadam-adv": {
      "url": "https://partners.kadam.net/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_ADV_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Connecting via OAuth (ChatGPT)

Add https://partners.kadam.net/mcp (advertiser) or https://pub.kadam.net/mcp (publisher) as Server URL in ChatGPT settings. OAuth discovery, registration, and login happen automatically.

Key Design Decisions

• ToolWrapper middleware — centralized auth validation, error formatting, and logging for all 30 tools
• Lazy singleton API clients — one HttpClient instance per product, created on first use
• Output truncation — hard 50KB limit per response with maxResults (default 25, max 100) to prevent LLM context overflow
• Human-readable output — formatted tables, aligned entities, pagination metadata instead of raw JSON
• Tool annotations — readOnlyHint, destructiveHint, idempotentHint to guide agent behavior
• Server instructions — usage patterns and constraints sent to the LLM on connection
• Dimension mapping — stats tools accept human-readable names ("clicks", "spend") and resolve them to API IDs internally

Development

Prerequisites

• Node.js >= 18
• npm

Setup

git clone https://github.com/kadam-official/mcp-server.git
cd mcp-server
npm install
cp .env.example .env  # Fill in your API keys

Commands

npm run dev             # Watch mode with tsx
npm run build           # Production build with Vite
npm run start           # Run built server
npm run typecheck       # TypeScript check
npm run lint            # ESLint
npm run format          # Prettier
npm test                # Run 82 tests

Testing

202 tests across 23 files using Vitest + MCP SDK InMemoryTransport:

• Unit tests — output formatter, config, HTTP client (mocked fetch)
• Middleware tests — ToolWrapper auth, error formatting, logging
• Integration tests — full server with all 30 tools, 7 resources, 4 prompts via in-memory MCP client
• Tool handler tests — each tool module with mocked API clients

npm test
# Test Files  23 passed (23)
#      Tests  202 passed (202)

MCP Inspector

The MCP Inspector provides a visual interface for testing:

npm run build
npm run inspect
