Matomo Analytics

Matomo Analytics runs locally from a Rust crate published to crates.io: matomo-mcp version 0.1.3. It speaks MCP over stdio, so the client starts it as a program and talks to it through standard input and output. It needs the Rust toolchain; cargo install builds the program. It reads these environment variables: MATOMO_URL (required), MATOMO_TOKEN (required, secret) and MATOMO_DEFAULT_SITE_ID; set them in the client's configuration for this server.

Matomo Analytics runs locally from a container image in an OCI registry such as Docker Hub or GitHub Container Registry: ghcr.io/liohtml/matomo-mcp:v0.1.3. It speaks MCP over stdio, so the client starts it as a program and talks to it through standard input and output. It needs Docker or another OCI container runtime; started with docker run — the usual command is docker run -i --rm -e MATOMO_URL -e MATOMO_TOKEN -e MATOMO_DEFAULT_SITE_ID ghcr.io/liohtml/matomo-mcp:v0.1.3. It reads these environment variables: MATOMO_URL (required), MATOMO_TOKEN (required, secret) and MATOMO_DEFAULT_SITE_ID; set them in the client's configuration for this server.

In the mcpServers JSON format that many desktop and editor MCP clients read, the entry looks like this (placeholders in angle brackets):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "matomo-mcp": {
      "command": "docker",
      "args": [
        "run",
        "-i",
        "--rm",
        "-e",
        "MATOMO_URL",
        "-e",
        "MATOMO_TOKEN",
        "-e",
        "MATOMO_DEFAULT_SITE_ID",
        "ghcr.io/liohtml/matomo-mcp:v0.1.3"
      ],
      "env": {
        "MATOMO_URL": "<value>",
        "MATOMO_TOKEN": "<secret>",
        "MATOMO_DEFAULT_SITE_ID": "<value>"
      }
    }
  }
}
