Teralynk MCP Server

Connect any MCP-compatible AI assistant to Teralynk — AI-native file intelligence, PII scanning, compliance automation, workflow execution, audit trails, and data subject rights management.

What it does

The Teralynk MCP Server exposes your entire Teralynk account as structured tools your AI can call directly. Ask Claude to scan a file for HIPAA violations, check your compliance score, generate a PDF report, run a workflow, or submit a GDPR data subject access request — all without leaving the conversation.

v1.6.1 — 102 tools across 13 categories with plan-based gating (free / SMB / enterprise), BYOK AI chat, per-tool metering, audit attribution, and remote feature flags.

Quick Start

1. Get your API key

Sign in at teralynk.com → Developer → API Keys → create a new key (starts with tlk_).

2. Add to Claude Desktop

Edit ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "teralynk": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@teralynk/mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "TERALYNK_API_KEY": "tlk_your_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop. The Teralynk tools appear automatically.
