Environment Variables

All configuration is done via environment variables, typically set in the env block of your MCP config.

Variables

Variable	Required	Default	Description
LEEROOPEDIA_API_KEY	Yes	—	Your Leeroopedia API key
LEEROOPEDIA_API_URL	No	https://api.leeroopedia.com	API endpoint URL
LEEROOPEDIA_POLL_MAX_WAIT	No	300	Max seconds to wait for a search task
LEEROOPEDIA_POLL_INTERVAL	No	0.5	Initial poll interval in seconds

Get your API key at app.leeroopedia.com:

The MCP client uses an async task pattern with exponential backoff:

LEEROOPEDIA_POLL_MAX_WAIT — Increase if searches frequently time out
LEEROOPEDIA_POLL_INTERVAL — The initial poll interval. Grows by 1.5x, capped at 5s

Setting LEEROOPEDIA_POLL_MAX_WAIT too low may cause timeouts on complex queries. The default of 300 seconds works well for most use cases.

For self-hosted or staging environments, override the API URL by setting LEEROOPEDIA_API_URL in your MCP config env block.
