Overview
What is Specter?
Specter is a game backend platform. The specter-skills package includes an MCP server that lets Claude inspect and configure a Specter backend directly from chat, using tools to read and manage game configuration such as currencies, tasks, leaderboards, and achievements.
How to use Specter?
Install the package with npx specter-skills init. Set up the MCP server via npx specter-skills mcp (or manually edit your MCP host config). Sign in once through your browser to authorize the tool. After that, Claude can run read-only and mutating tools on your Specter project.
Key features of Specter

FAQ from Specter
What does the MCP server do vs the skills?
Skills teach Claude the Specter API so it writes correct integration code. The MCP server lets Claude act on your backend to inspect and configure it straight from chat.
What are the runtime requirements?
Node.js is required. The package is installed via npm and runs as an MCP server. No additional services beyond a Specter account are needed.
Where does my data live?
Your API key and sign‑in token are stored locally (~/.specter/credentials.json). No data is sent to third parties. You can revoke access from the dashboard at any time.
Are there known limits?
Mutating tools are flagged non‑read‑only and require confirmation before each call. The README advises pointing them at a staging project first. No explicit rate limits are mentioned.
How does authentication work?
Sign‑in is done through your browser using your normal Specter credentials (email/password, Google, or Apple). A revocable token is saved locally. Your password never touches the tool or Claude. Read‑only tools work after sign‑in; mutating tools require SPECTER_ALLOW_MUTATIONS=true.
