# Archive.org MCP Vendor: Archive.org Category: other Auth: API_KEY Composio slug: `archive_org` Search and access Internet Archive content, inspect analytics, Wayback captures, IIIF images, and account tasks, and manage item files, metadata, derivation, and the connected user's reviews. ## Verdict The Archive.org MCP gives your team direct access to the Internet Archive's 70+ petabyte collection and upload pipeline. @Mention it to search historical web pages, books, audio, video, and software; download files for analysis; check identifier availability before creating new items; and manage uploads, deletions, and metadata for items your account owns. Researchers, archivists, and content teams get the most value — you can pull primary sources into briefs, verify historical claims, or automate preservation workflows. Setup requires an Archive.org API key with S3-like credentials; write operations only affect items your account controls. ## Tools - **Advanced Search Archive.org Items** — Search Archive.org metadata with exact Advanced Search page semantics. Use Search Archive.org Items instead when cursor-based deep paging is needed. - **Check Archive.org Upload Limit** — Check whether Archive.org's ingest queue is likely to accept an upload or delete, using only the connection's LOW Authorization header. - **Check Identifier Availability** — Check whether an Archive.org item identifier is available before attempting to create an item. - **Copy Item File** — Copy one Archive.org file server-side to a named path in an existing destination item. This creates the destination file when absent and overwrites it when present while preserving the prior destination under history/files. The source remai - **Delete Item File** — Submit asynchronous deletion of one named file from an Archive.org item through IA-S3. An accepted response does not verify file absence; read item metadata later to verify it. This action cannot delete an item/bucket. Cascade deletion is d - **Delete My Archive.org Review** — Permanently delete the connected Archive.org user's public review from one item. Archive.org queues the deletion and rejects the request if no such review exists. - **Derive Archive.org Item** — Queue Archive.org's fixed derive.php task for an item owned or editable by the connected account. The task transforms source content into derived files asynchronously and may replace prior derivatives; this action never requests the unteste - **Download Item File** — Download one public file from an Archive.org item and return a temporary downloadable file reference. - **Find Wayback Snapshots** — Find the closest archived Wayback Machine snapshot for each requested URL, using one before, after, or either direction for the batch. - **Get Archive.org Task Log** — Download a plain-text log for a task visible to the connected account. Optionally return only the first or last requested number of lines. - **Get Connected Archive.org User** — Return the authenticated Archive.org user's identity and privileges without returning either IA-S3 credential. - **Get Detailed Archive.org Views** — Get bounded geographic view analytics and, for items, top referrers over a recent window or date range. Collections support both timeframes; contributors support date ranges only and do not include referrers. - **Get IIIF Image Info** — Get normalized IIIF Image API capabilities through Archive.org's fixed-host single-image convenience route or a live-proven versioned file route. - **Get IIIF Manifest** — Get a compact IIIF Presentation manifest for an Archive.org item or one page of an Archive.org collection. - **Get Item Metadata** — Get an Archive.org item's full record, including metadata, file inventory, public reviews, and catalog tasks, or return one selected metadata field or array slice. - **Get Item View Counts** — Get all-time, last-30-day, and last-7-day view counts for one or more Archive.org item or collection identifiers from the current or legacy counting pipeline. - **Get Item View History** — Get a bounded daily view history for one Archive.org item or collection, split by robot classification. - **Get My Review** — Get the connected Archive.org user's review for one item, if that user has reviewed it. - **Get Task Rate Limits** — Report the connected account's current task capacity and in-flight counts for one Archive.org catalog command. - **List Archive.org Tasks** — Return any documented combination of the connected account's task summary, active catalog, and resource-authorized history, one page at a time. - **List Wayback Captures** — Return one bounded structured CDX page of Wayback captures for a URL or host. - **Render IIIF Image** — Render a bounded crop, resize, rotation, quality, and format from a fixed Archive.org IIIF image route. - **Search Archive.org Items** — Search Archive.org item metadata with a Lucene-style query and return one deep-pagination page of matching items. - **Update Item Metadata** — Apply JSON Patch changes to one Archive.org item owned or editable by the connected account, limited to ordinary item metadata and metadata records for named files. Remove permanently deletes the selected metadata value; move removes a valu - **Upload Item File** — Create or replace one file through Archive.org IA-S3, explicitly choosing a new-item or existing-item upload. New-item uploads alone send item creation metadata. Overwrites preserve the prior file under history/files, and this action never - **Upsert My Archive.org Review** — Create or overwrite the connected Archive.org user's single public review for an eligible item. The title, body, and optional rating become publicly visible on the item. ## Setup 1. Create or open a Switchy Project. 2. Open Integrations and connect Archive.org. 3. Authorise through api_key. 4.
