📋 Usage with Claude Desktop

Add to your Claude Desktop MCP configuration (claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "openreplay-analysis": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": [
        "/path/to/openreplay-mcp-server/run_server.py"
      ],
      "env": {
        "OPENREPLAY_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here",
        "OPENREPLAY_PROJECT_ID": "your_project_id_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

💬 Example Queries

Once connected to Claude Desktop or another MCP client, you can ask:

• “Find sessions with errors from the last week”
• “Analyze user journey for session ABC123”
• “Generate a summary of problematic sessions today”
• “Show me all sessions for user [email protected]”
• “Find sessions similar to XYZ456 that had form abandonment”
• “Debug session DEF789 and tell me what went wrong”

🐳 Docker Usage

For containerized deployment:

# Set environment variables in .env file
docker-compose up

Or build and run manually:

docker build -t openreplay-mcp .
docker run -e OPENREPLAY_API_KEY=your_key -e OPENREPLAY_PROJECT_ID=your_project openreplay-mcp

📊 Session Analysis Capabilities

Problem Detection

• Rage Clicks: Multiple rapid clicks indicating frustration
• Form Abandonment: Users starting but not completing forms
• Dead Clicks: Clicks on non-interactive elements
• Error Tracking: JavaScript errors and exceptions

Journey Analysis

• Page Flow Mapping: Track user navigation through your site
• Duration Analysis: Understand time spent on each page
• Bounce Rate: Identify single-page sessions
• Action Breakdown: Analyze user interactions (clicks, scrolls, inputs)

AI Insights

• Automated Summaries: Natural language session descriptions
• Problem Identification: Highlight potential UX issues
• Performance Analysis: Identify slow-loading content
• Behavioral Patterns: Recognize user intent and goals

🔗 Integration Examples

Debugging Workflow

# Search for recent error sessions
sessions = await search_sessions(has_errors=True, start_date="2024-06-01")

# Analyze specific problematic session
summary = await generate_session_summary(session_id="abc123")
problems = await detect_problem_patterns(session_id="abc123")

# Find similar issues
similar = await find_similar_sessions(reference_session_id="abc123", criteria="errors")

UX Research Workflow

# Analyze user behavior over time
user_history = await get_user_session_history(user_id="user123")

# Study navigation patterns
for session in user_sessions:
    journey = await analyze_user_journey(session_id=session.id)
    # Analyze patterns...
